Rated 4 out of 5 by Ben Lam from HP printer Performance of this HP printer is good and the quality of printout is also high. HP products never let me down!

Date published: 2022-03-10

Rated 2 out of 5 by Simonc from Not useful Prints ok but what desktop printer can't print envelope? It's the most basic printer at a premium price. There are way better printers being offered by other brands for far less. Don't let your good experience with older HP fool you. HP is no longer the leader in printer.
