Review: Easy installation, good prints. - I just installed this and am giving it a provisional five stars because of the ease of installation, the quality of the prints and the $69 price. I might revisit this review if problems crop up later. But set up was incredibly easy and I was printing wirelessly from my iMac and iPhone within an hour. If fact, if I hadn't walked away while the drivers were downloading, it could have gone quicker. This installation was done on a late 2009 iMac running High Sierra. Basically, you just plug in the printer and turn it on. Remove the tape on the paper tray and a small piece of protective cardboard from inside the printer. Then go to HP's install site at 123.hp.com. (You can also do part of this directly from the printer if you want, but I think it's easier on the computer). The install program will prompt you on how to properly install the ink and paper. There are helpful videos. The only thing that tripped me up was when it came time to generate a test print for the scanner. The install prompt said to click "ok" on the printer's tiny touch screen. But all I could see on the screen were prompts for my country and language. But, even though you will have already answered those on the website, answer them again on your printer's touch screen, and then you'll get to the "ok" prompt. Once you're done, you still will have to tell your iMac - and I assume PC - that you have a new printer. That was easy. The iMac saw it and I just made it the new default printer. On my iPhone I downloaded the HP Smart app from the Apple App Store. It was easy to print photos from my library. I did get a little confused when I was setting up to print email. It said it would send me a pin to complete the process and never did. Yet, when I checked my iPhone it saw the printer and printed out an email. Go figure. Maybe these instructions were for an older model. Two other things: You will come to one of those privacy agreements at the end of the set up. Make sure you read them. I opted out of letting them monitor my printer or sending me updates. Also, I did not sign up for HP's instant ink program. It didn't look like it would save me that much money, given both the privacy and flexibility I'd be giving up. The cheapest plan is $3 a month -- $36 a year -- and allows you 100 pages a month. My printing needs are light, but there are times I might go over 100 a month. And replacement cartridges are $27 on desertcart. It just didn't make budget sense and it's allowing a backdoor into some of your most private documents. HP might not care, but a hacker might. Hope this helps!
Review: Superb Printer & Instant Ink is a Great Bonus! - My HP Office Jet which I have had for several years or more bit the dust. I looked and researched many printers and decided on the HP Envy. I did not need a fax component so was glad when the HP Envy showed up as a basic home printer minus the fax. You can scan and copy. I am glad to say, this printer fits my needs. It prints and produces good quality. I do not normally print photos, however, with the use of Instant Ink which I signed up for, I might start doing that now since I am being charged per page and not by ink use. Yes, I am quite happy with Instant Ink. I received two months free of up to 300 pages per month along with buying a $5 pre-paid card which also will be deducted once the two months runs out. Sweet deal, I say. I can check my printing status just by going to the HP Instant Ink website. How cool is that? My wife and I have not been printing much lately, however, that might change by having the Instant Ink program. In the past, I would try to print in black and white to conserve color toner. Now, I am free to blast off and use color or black and white. The HP Envy has a quiet mode which I have tried and it is indeed quieter than the normal mode. Nice feature to have if you are printing in the early morning hours and want to keep the noise level down a bit. I am connected via WiFi and have not experienced any connection issues. Set up took about 5-10 minutes. Make sure you have the WiFi password and you are good to go. I don't know what to say about those who have left negative reviews. This HP Envy works like a charm and having the Instant Ink is a great bonus! I bought this printer on my own. There was no company endorsement or any of those shenanigans. My review is my own and not because I got a printer for free.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: My cat weighs about 13 pounds. Does anyone know is she can lay on top of printer without breaking it?**
A: Good question.  I am considering buying one of these printers. My cats are around 10 lbs each. It puzzles me that they like to lay on my laptop and printer whenever I'm using it but not when it's off. Peace

**Q: Is the ink expensive? Also, if one ink cartridge runs out. Does it still allow it for it to print?**
A: I signed up for the instant ink program. Free cartridges and 15 pages free a month. Then you pay 1 dollar for an additional 10 pages. There is a free trial of 300 pages for 3 months too, with free ink.  If you purchase ink without the program it's costly, around $32 a cartridge. Also it does print with only one cartridge, which is great.

**Q: Does it come with usb cord to connect to laptop when not using wifi?**
A: No usb cord. But my old Cannon printer finally crapped out on me and I was able to use its usb cord flawlessly to connect this new printer to my computer.

**Q: does this printer enlarge copies?**
A: How do you make copies smaller? my copies are to large.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ The instant ink program is a total nightmare
*by N***S on March 5, 2021*

This is a great printer when you have ink. The ink it is shipped with worked beautifully. My Instant ink replacement came & neither cartridge worked. I spent hours on the community page finding out that this is a common problem (long long thread) and went through all the fixes except take part of printer out and wash it in dishwashing liquid! do not do. 1 hour in the community help, 2.5 hours waiting for and going through chat - everything on my end correct. Sending one color & 1 black replacement. Ordered Feb 22 told I would receive by March 1st. Got March 2nd - kind of a long wait only to find that they had sent 2 color cartridges! So chat support AGAIN. They'll send out yet another replacement black ink which will take 8-10 days!! I have established that I have no black ink, am printing legal documents, have wasted hours & hours etc. They are happy to send it expedited delivery & I get to pay for it. After yet more time waiting for a supervisor they sent me one black ink cartridge 'expedited delivery "free of charge'. Insert new cartridge sent from HP, get message "you have installed a non HP cartridge" So, not knowing whether to cry or drink - I am back on the HP support chat. Explain issue. Their comment "you have a non-HP cartridge installed that will interfere with accurate supply on your instant ink program" AGAIN - 'NO, I did NOT buy the cartridge, HP sent me the cartridge from your inventory - your records must show this was shipped" SUPPORT Finally "they sent you the wrong cartridge the one you have is a retail cartridge not instant ink" so the score is 3 out of 3 screwed up black ink replacements, hours on forums and chats & essentially a 2 week wait for ink. If this replacement cartridge is actually the right one and works I'll faint. Replacing the right ink is basic customer service - supply what customer ordered and paid in advance for. This is baseline. EPIC FAIL 3/3 HP chat - another hour. Will send another cartridge (hopefully a black one that works) and you'll get it on the 15th. Unless I would like to pay $4. for expedited shipping! If you are on the HP instant ink plan you can't buy a cartridge to tide you over as they won't work. You can print only with 1 color cartridge as black but that's not sustainable if you are printing legal documents during WFH - its too frustrating for a very simple plan that you pay for monthly in advance, where you get the ink you need to do your work. My plan should work after I ever get a black ink that works - we will see.
