HP OfficeJet 8015e Wireless Color All-in-One Printer with 3 months of ink included

I'm a regular household user (ok, also a teacher, but not the kind who prints All The Things) but had an old Officejet because of a crazy black Friday deal back when black Friday deals were crazy. It died of old age and I thought I'd downgrade because budget. But I just couldn't go back to regular printers. I returned two out of frustration before deciding to just pay a little more and go back to Officejet, it's only been a couple of weeks but so far I don't think I'll have any regrets. Pros: + Seems to be on sale often so it's not terribly more expensive than lower end printers. + The print quality is very good. I'm getting a drop of those light horizontal lines, but just a bit, and I bet they could be ironed out if I had time to sit around with settings or something. But overall I'm much happier than I was with the other printers I tried, text is sharper and colors are more true. + Paper tray is closed. I hate that all the new expensive printers these days have the paper sticking up from the back open to the elements. I can only assume their paper feeders get gummed up with dust pretty fast, and the papers themselves can't be too happy. The paper tray on this printer is great. + It's not noisy, relative to others. + HP Smart app is great, easy to use, has a nice set of functions. + Had no issues with setup. + So far seems to be picking up jobs just fine from my phone and laptop. Cons: - I really don't like the boxy design. I'm putting function over form but I really don't like it. And the front panel seems a bit flimsy, it's not the most important piece but my old Officejet didn't have a front panel that opened and I don't really see the point of this one as you need to lift the top to get inside anyway. - would love to have a paper bypass tray. Like if you want to print one envelope, it would be great to have a place to just feed that in rather than remove your whole paper stack, change the size in the tray, print your envelope, and then put all the paper back. - like I said before, I'm getting a drop of banding (is that what it's called? Tiny horizontal gaps?) When printing chunks of color. I'm not sure if this is fixable and the print quality is still the best I've seen in this price range, but it's a flaw. - the touch screen could be a little more responsive - That's... Really it so far. I had a lot more complaints with every other printer I tried. Neutral: ~ Let's talk about instant ink. Many reviews had issues with this. They seem to not understand how the program works. It's not that complicated. No, you don't get six months worth of ink in the box with the printer. They will send the ink to your home as needed over six months if you sign up and give them your address. I haven't gotten to the end of the trial yet so I don't know if they actually brick your printer if you try to use generic ink, but they were very explicit about you agreeing not to do that when signing up. I have no issue with this because I did some math and I believe the instant ink actually is a better deal than even generic ink is. My old printer accepted generics (after an initial period of reluctance) and it wasn't all that exciting. And with subscription ink I won't need to worry about waste when the printer decides to clean the printheads (my old one did that a lot) I do think it feels scammy for them to make you commit at the outset to never use other ink for the life of the printer (what?!) But at the same time I'm comfortable with what they're offering. I'll be annoyed if they raise the prices though, and I think if they're making you commit upon purchase then they in turn should commit to grandfathering you into the ink prices as of the time of the commitment. ~ Several times I've sent a print job from my phone, got an error message on my phone, while the job printed just fine. So it's good that the job printed fine, but it's weird and annoying that my phone thinks it didn't, and now I have an error notification sitting there, and if I'm not near the printer I don't know whether or not it actually printed or if I need to retry. I'll have to figure out how to make that stop. Maybe I'll need to uninstall and reinstall the phone app or something. Overall a very minor hiccup compared to the issues I had with other printers.

I have been using this line of HP Officejet printers for over 15 years and will not even consider buying another brand. HP printers' quality is the best. Prints fast, easy to use, and the ink monitor program they offer is the best. I'm never out of ink, and you save big money buying your ink straight from HP. Beware though, there are a lot of low-cost Chinese ink cartridges this won't work with even though they say they do. The printer is programmed not to work with them. Which is actually a good thing. Years ago I tried using generic ink cartridges, and they created nothing but problems.

Bought this for work - works great! I don't do lots of printing as I can do a fair amount of work through Adobe, but when I do need to print and scan things in this is very convenient and easy to do with the computer and mobile apps. The ink provided when purchased was definitely a very small amount, and I went through it quickly before needing to be replaced. I didn't bother with the subscriptions as I felt that would've been a waste of money. I don't hear a lot of great things from HP (mainly due to trying to lock people in?), but I've been pretty happy with this one so far.

I really liked this printer and made the mistake of subscribing to the mfg promotional inkjet cartridge program. The printer has to be on the HP Smart App to work properly. I was getting crap cartridges from HP that leaked and were the smallest size they could sell me. I cancelled my subscription because of the poor quality of their product. I purchased brand new cartridges from the HP store and they cost more than the printer which was very reasonable price. The printer worked great for my needs. After installing the new HP inkjet cartridges my printer quit working. I received a notification from my HP account that my printer would not work anymore unless I resubscribe to their ink cartridge program. It is a scam. I am a senior citizen who is a disabled veteran and my attempts to get HP to remove my printer from their account was not successful. I did not have any options with Amazon customer service. They had no idea that HP was so aggressive with their product to be disabled because of the cancellation of their inkjet cartridge subscription. I have always had a great experience with HP. I learned a hard lesson. SVS
