HP Smart -Tank 6001 Wireless Cartridge-Free all in one printer, this ink -tank printer comes with up to 2 years of ink included, with mobile print, scan, copy (2H0B9A)

I bought this printer after wanting to decrease my ink cost from a laser printer. I expect my print quality to be high, and I figured I wouldn't be able to find a quality printer.Boy was I wrong! After trying a few other brands with liquid ink, I bought this one and it did not disappoint. The ink is super easy to install, and the quality is near laser, but it's difficult to know the difference! I bought this so I could print my own cards for birthdays, anniversaries and anything else. Now I'm printing quality cards that I make myself, and I couldn't be happier!Once my husband found out I wasn't worried about ink consumption and how cheap the refills were, he's printed hundreds of pages of color for his classes, and they come out just beautiful! He wasn't too sure about me wanting to upgrade to a color printer, but now he loves it as much as I do!I have only used the scanner a few times because I have a document scanner that does more. However, the scanner works fine for larger or book scans. If you don't have another scanner, you will like at least having the option to scan.I especially like this printer over its larger models because the paper is SUPER easy to load! The larger ones need you to remove the entire front of the tray before putting paper in. This one you just take a stack of paper and slip it into the front of the paper tray. I can load it very easily from my chair without removing any parts.The printer connected to the wireless network pretty easy, and adding it to our phones and other computers was a breeze! I do notice every once in a while when the network is having trouble, it will scan for wireless networks and disconnect & reconnect. That usually isn't a problem, just something for you to know.After owning the printer a few weeks now and printing about 400 sheets of color AND about 50 greeting cards, the ink still reads full. I'm really looking forward to saving money on ink.I use the IP address to connect to the printers' interface, and I love that more than its software. Both work fine and similar.I highly recommend this HP SmartTank Printer for anyone who wants to save on money and have quality printed products.

Get this: you buy the printer but HP owns its use to some degree. Forget the fact it says it has WIFI, you'll find it has turned this off and doesn't recover when you need the printer. You have to go press buttons to get it 'back'. The printer's web page logs you out in under 5 min. and no way to stop that either. So you'll find yourself constantly entering a complex (upper/lower/number/etc) password just to access what you bought and paid for. This thing is a pain in the arse, thank you HP for such secure printing in my home office.SO, my only solution was to drag out the USB cable extension and plug it into my computer, just like the old days, this limits where it can be placed of course, so it's on the desk again and i put a potted plant on the printer stand over in the corner. Once directly plugged into my computer it works well as printers did in the 90's. HP is really blown out on their software specifications now days, real junk and problematic.HOWEVER I like the all in one scanner, copier, printer and ink tank concept having now abandoned the new EPSON I had (90 days) and got fed up with too, again lousy software issues. The EPSON does not have easy to replace print heads so if I forget to print a page weekly it's dried up junk. The HP at least for around $100 can have new heads just snapped in, great, but high priced as per HPs plan to sell supplies.Maybe next time I'll try Canon again to see how their software works out. Shame, good hardware but lousy software that some bungling marketing pastie demanded such great features be included...Be prepared to order a 20' USB cable to go along with this purchase, forget BLE and WIFI uses....Also have a coffee ready to bide your time with, the WIFI (EWS) pages take sometimes several minutes to come up in the browser, sip that coffee. The ADMIN password says once set is required to mess with the EWS settings pages, well if you don't set it you have to enter a long code from the sticker inside.Printer firmware update page, you see another check box to "automatically install updates" but you can't uncheck this, so when HP wants to further mess up your purchase they can just jump into your printer and have at it...next day you are left wondering what the heck happened to your nice $400 printer that now refuses to do any work for you as it demands it's own rest periods and equity, equality and such...?A side note, doc's say if you connect with Ethernet/USB the printer will stay more 'awake' for you when you need it. So simply adding a USB cable to your computer helps keep it running and WIFI up, however dang slow that turns out to be. Just imagine, HP is making millions of people sit idle while their product responds to their wishes with it's built-in slowness? How is this 'energy efficient or green'? What gives?I might also point out HP claims "Self-healing-WIFI", what is this supposed to mean? Marketing dumbo jumbo from the pastie division or what? Why would a device need this? I ask self-heal from what wound? If it worked correctly you wouldn't need this feature, its almost like claiming that a design defect is a 'feature' you are getting for the buck spent. I might invest in a WIFI to USB dongle and plug that in to the HP to get working WIFI ability with all modern HP printers. I have relatives and friends that also have HP printers ALL with these same quibbles going on for them, having a printer has never been more frustrating or time consuming that with the modern HP software we see today!I suspect many users that initially love this thing don't get back on and update their review to comment on all the sour issues that crop up with HP's latest software provided which is counterproductive!

I bought this printer after my old traditional ink cartridge printer told me it was out of cyan again, when I had just put new cartridges in a couple months ago and had only printer a few pages since. Setup was super easy and the print quality seems really good. Time will tell if the value is truly there with the smart tank system compared to cartridges but since I can see the ink levels in the front, I am hopeful. It is bigger than my old printer, but I like that the paper try is underneath the printer rather than behind it. Overall, I am very please with this printer and have no complaints with it.
