Title: HP DeskJet 2855e Wireless All-in-One Printer: Compact and Reliable for Everyday Use at Work
Review: I’ve been using the HP DeskJet 2855e for a couple of weeks now, and I’m quite impressed with what it offers for a budget-friendly printer. Here’s my detailed breakdown:Design and Build QualityThe HP DeskJet 2855e has a compact and lightweight design that easily fits on a small desk or shelf. Its clean white exterior gives it a modern, minimalist look. While it's made mostly of plastic, the build feels sturdy enough for regular home office use.Setup and ConnectivitySetting up the printer was a breeze! The wireless setup is straightforward using the HP Smart app, and it connected to my Wi-Fi without any issues. I was able to print from my laptop, smartphone, and even my tablet effortlessly. It also supports AirPrint, which is a plus for Apple users.Print QualityFor a printer in this price range, the print quality is decent. Black-and-white documents come out sharp and clear. Color prints are vibrant, though not professional-grade quality. It works well for everyday tasks like printing homework, forms, or casual photos. If you're printing high-resolution images or need professional color prints, you might want to look at higher-end models.PerformanceThis printer performs well for basic tasks. It’s not the fastest, but it's good enough for occasional use. The scan and copy functions work as expected, and having these features in one device is convenient for a home office setup. However, if you plan to print a lot, the print speed might be a bit slow for your liking.Ink and Running CostsHP includes 6 months of free Instant Ink with the purchase of this model, which is a fantastic deal. The Instant Ink program automatically delivers ink to your door before you run out, and it’s based on the number of pages you print, not how much ink you use. After the trial period, you’ll need to subscribe to a plan, which can be affordable depending on your printing needs. Otherwise, HP ink cartridges can be pricey, so this is something to keep in mind.Pros:Compact and space-saving designWireless connectivity with mobile printingEasy setup with HP Smart appFree 6 months of Instant InkAffordable priceCons:Print speed is slow, especially for large documentsColor printing quality is averageInk cartridges can be expensive without Instant Ink subscriptionOverall, the HP DeskJet 2855e is a solid choice if you're looking for an affordable all-in-one printer for light home use. It’s easy to set up, works wirelessly with multiple devices, and includes free Instant Ink, making it a great deal for casual users. However, it’s not ideal if you need high-quality color prints or fast print speeds for heavy workloads.

Title: Excellent for home use!
Review: I’m really happy with this printer! The setup process was incredibly easy, and it prints quickly with minimal effort. The HP app is a great addition for scanning documents and keeping an eye on ink levels. The color quality of the pages it prints is also really great. It’s super quiet while printing, which I appreciate, and its compact size fits perfectly in smaller spaces. I also love the digital screen that displays the number of pages being printed. Overall, this printer has been a fantastic addition to my home office!

Title: Horrible customer support
Review: Summary:- tried, unsuccessfully, to set the printer up to print from my son’s iPhone and his laptop- printer set-up app will not allow connecting to the university wifi as it is a public network (according to the HP agent)- the set up app does not give an option to complete the set up with an Ethernet cable (cable NOT provided) even though the printer does have an Ethernet port - the manual specifically discourages the use of the Ethernet port as it will restrict the use of some features. Not to mention that obviously the use of an Ethernet cable only allows connecting to a computer and not a smart phone- HP recommends on their website to use the chat option for support as it is faster. Customer support via chat is terrible in response time and support provided- in the end, 40 min wasted on the chat - problem not resolved - stuck with a printer I cannot return as it is past the return deadline - ordered an Ethernet cable and praying it will at least let my son print from his laptopDetails:I purchased this printer earlier this summer for my son to take to his college dorm room. He moved in yesterday and proceeded to set it up to print from his iPhone and his laptop using wifi. He is on campus in the dorms so the wifi is the one provided by the university to the students. The printer would not let us set it up saying this wifi network was not supported by the printer/hp app, to try another network or contact HP support. The printer does have an Ethernet port (cable NOT provided) but the setup app only offered the option to set up by wifi, no option to set up using an Ethernet cable. The printer manual also specifically discourages the use of an Ethernet cable and warns it will not allow access to all the printer features. They even mention that they cover the Ethernet port on the printer with a sticker to deter people from using it. And obviously you cannot connect an Ethernet cable to a smart phone. The printer does NOT come with an Ethernet cable so we could not test it. I contacted HP support via their website chat using the link provided in the error message. I had to wait 20 min before being connected to an agent. But the frustrating part was the delay in response from the agent between each single question/answer. The agent asked 2 basic questions in 2 posts - first post was to provide info to identify myself and the printer - second post was to confirm my problem statement. I answered each question immediately and had to wait at least 5 min after each answer to get his feedback. I know it was at least that long as each post on the chat is marked with the time it was sent. After 15 min of wait (in addition to the initial 20 min to be connected to an agent), he answered that the university wifi was a public network and therefore would not work. He advised to try using the hotspot from my son’s iPhone. I answered that my son’s phone carrier/plan does not allow for hotspot so that couldn’t work. I once again waited and waited for an answer and gave up. I cannot return the printer as it is past the return deadline. I ordered an Ethernet cable and hope that will work with the laptop even though the setup does not offer that option and the manual specifically says that connecting via Ethernet is not as good as it does not allow access to all the features. As for printing from the iPhone I guess that is not possible. Could not be more disappointed by the terrible customer support and lack of information in the manual!

Title: Great all in one printer
Review: For the price this is an outstanding all in one printer, scanner & copier. I deducted one star because it’s just a tad on the slow side but other than that it’s great. I didn’t buy it to print photos but printed a few just because I got a new printer and wanted to play with it and it prints surprisingly good quality photos. Do yourself a favor and sign up for the automatic ink monitoring and delivery. It’s really inexpensive and extremely convenient!!! I would definitely recommend this printer for home use.

Title: Nice stylish look, Not too big but not small
Review: I liked that I got it 3 days earlier than the expected date. My disc drive drawer won't open so I am unable to run the disc. Best way. I went to the website and downloaded the installation program. Every printer I've ever had in 50 years asks if you want the printer to be the Primary Printer, answer Y. Do you want an icon on the tool bar, answer Y. This printer asked neither. I read setup with WiFi. I did what it said and it could find the WiFi. It's the same distance from the WiFi as the computer and it's connected. I'll uninstall it and install it again. If I fail to connect again I'll go find some kid that studied how to hook up a printer to a PC in school and have him/her do it.

Review: I was a little concerned about set up, given some negative reviews, but it only took me about 45 minutes. I took my time, followed each step but made some errors and had to backtrack ( I am 77 years old ) but I am happy to say that the printer works just fine. My last HP printer was not expensive and lasted more than 12 years so this might be the last printer I buy.

Review: It is almost impossible to print things in different ways, doesn’t give me many options in terms of “4 to a paper” or landscape or horizontal. I was printing just fine on my laptop, I go to print and it’s disconnected, my fiancé and I have been trying for over an hour to connect both our laptops to this printer and it’s not working. My phone was printing 2 days ago to the printer and now it’s disconnected yet again and won’t print. It has been a horrible experience using this printer.. I would never buy this again
