Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

This is an excellent, easy to set up, and small printer. I sell on ebay and Etsy and use this for packing slips and shipping labels so the fact that it prints only black wasn't an issue. Printing from the phone is easy, but not a big deal to me. But what I really like about the printer is you can register with Google Cloud Print allowing you to print from any pc or phone from anywhere, even thousands of miles away. I do not understand why some reviews mention a difficult set up or not being able to print from their computer. This was by far the easiest wireless set up I've ever done (previous wireless printers were all Canon). I used HP's Android app to initially set up the printer, and I downloaded the Windows driver software from HP, installed it, and my computer had no problem recognizing the printer and printing to it. And my computer isn't a new one.....a 5 year old Toshiba laptop running Windows 8.1. I did not use any CD that came with the printer...I think it's quicker and easier to just download from HP. The computer does come with a USB cable to connect physically with a computer. Also, if you don't have a wireless router you can still connect wirelessly using Wi-Fi Direct (I haven't tried that yet). After I bought this, but before I received it, I read an online review from some tech website which was overall a very good review, the only flaw they saw was that "the text was a little too light and pale". That made be a little nervous because of all the dark black in the shipping labels I print, but I cannot tell the difference between these and ones I used to print on an inkjet. My reason for buying this was to save on ink cartridges; I was going through at least 1 black cartridge a month at $28 each. I thought about the Epsons with refillable ink tanks, but I didn't like some things about those models, so I decided to go with this. The toner cartridge yields 1,000 pages vs 300 pages for a Canon 240XL ink cartridge, AND the HP toner can be bought online for only $5 more than I was paying for the Canon ink.
