Warning: Does not come with USB cable
So I work in IT and when printer manufacturers stopped shipping .50cent USB Type A-to-B cables in their Networkable printers I laughed but somewhat understood since it makes more sense to network the printer if it's capable. However, this printer has no networking capability. This printer is also designed for simplicity hence that it advertises one button and ease of use. This would then cater to the less tech savvy people who just want a printer they can set up themselves. Do you think those people are going assume that the printer, when taken out of the box, is completely unusable unless you buy an extra part somewhere else? I cannot fathom for the life of me why HP does not include a .50cent USB cable given that it's literally a requirement for the printer to function out of the box. I still gave the printer 4 stars because with the cable it is a functioning printer for very cheap. They'll make the money back on the ink of course and how greedy of a company can you be where you don't include a usb cable...unbelievable. I'll update my review if this thing breaks in the coming months.
