HP Envy 110 e-All-in-One Printer (Brown)

One of the best I ever owned

My Hp Envy 110 e-All-in-One Printer, is the talk of my family, we all love it. This is a perfect buy for anyone who needs an easy to use printer,copier,fax. This is a computer in its own class.

The design of this printer is beautiful; its the nicest looking printer Ive seen. Unfortunately, for actually printing it is the worst printer we have owned. There are numerous issues with printing from OS X Lion, many of which HP seems to be aware of as they have been commented on in the HP support forums for many months. Example issues: - Printer loses connection with the Mac (this appears to be an issue with both OS X Snow Leopard and with Lion). HPs solution is uninstall the printer and reinstall it, which does resolve the issue UNTIL the next time you go to print, and once again you have to uninstall and reinstall the printer. - Changing simple options on the print dialog (e.g. print in black & white only) results in about 80% of the page printing, and then the printer hangs with an unintelligible alpha-numeric error message that HP support doesnt even seem to be able to figure out - By default the printer ships enabling automatic updates to the printer firmware if the printer is connected to the Internet. A potentially very nice feature, which unfortunately for a fair number of users results in the printer freezing up partially through the update. Only way to get this resolved is to ship the printer back to HP. We were hoping that when the replacement printer arrived, the other issues would have been resolved. Unfortunately, this new printer suffers from the same issues. HP support did recommend that we turn off the automatic printer updates. Oddly, about the only thing that works reliably on this printer is printing from iPad and iPhone! Just today after trying to print the same doc from the Mac to the HP four times with no success, I switched and printed it from the iPad. It worked fine. My advice is avoid HP if you have a Mac.

This printer sets up easy and it works like its suppose to. Printing from mobile device works great too. GREAT PRINTER!

Picked one of these printers up because I wanted a printer in my family room, where I do most of my computer work. Most of what I looked at seemed to be a few metal parts and lots of cheap plastic. When I picked up the HP Envy printer, I immediately felt the difference. Heavy and solid construction. The looks of the printer are unlike any other I have seen. It looks more like a DVD player than a printer. It fits into my living area, while other printers looked like office equipment - not what I wanted in my family room. Unboxing the unit showed that the packaging was high quality and the printer had its own bag keeping it safe from scratches. Hookup consisted of plugging in the electric cable and turning the printer on. From there, the printer guided me through the setup, including telling me when to insert the ink cartridges and how to set up the wireless connection. The only thing I needed to have was my network security password, as I have a secured Wi-fi network. Connected to the network 1st time after I keyed in the password. Installing the software on my computer was quick and easy. No surprises, but HP does load their installation with a bunch of junk you probably dont want. Just deselect anything you dont want installed. Everything works fine. Usual good quality prints and scans. The printer found some firmware updates and asked me if I wanted them installed. I did and they went in without any problem. Same for an update to the computer software for the printer. This printer uses two ink cartridges - black and a color. I like this approach as the cartridge design has the print heads in the cartridge. Change inks and you get a new print head each time. I have used several other brands of ink jet printers that have permanent print heads as part of the printer. These always tend to clog for me, over time. With the HP cartridge design used here, I have never had bad prints, or clogged print heads on the other Photo printer I have from HP. Ive also used HP inkjets at work for years and they just print - day in and day out. Some find a benefit to having separate ink cartridges for each color. Ive had two printers with this arrangement and found that I was replacing the various colors at about the same time. The extra parts just amounted to extra things that could go wrong, and added cost. The HP Envy printer has some neat features like the touch screen and the retractable paper catcher. While neat features, they seem to be likely problem areas down the road (after the mfg warranty expires), so I bought an extended warranty on the printer - giving me 4 years of coverage. Hope this printer works long term as good as it looks out of the box. HP did a great design job, integrating an office device into a home environment.

this was absolutely the worst Printer i have ever purchased-when i received it i found out it was a discontinued model

This printer was immediately recognized once I set it up on our WiFi network. A number of people have stated that the printer connection would get lost. Randomly this was happening with our iPad 2, one day it worked great and the next the printer would not show up. When you have a network you can type in a devices IP address (i.e.. 192.168.0.8) into your internet browsers URL field and manage it from there. I bookmark all my devices this way for quick access to them from my Macs. I noticed the Envy was loosing its IP address and it kept changing. The only was to get it to appear again was to restart the printer and hard reboot the iPad. After the 3 time in a couple of months I decided to solve this problem. I went ahead and assigned the Envy a static IP address and the problem has not returned. It works flawlessly now from our iPad 2, (iOS 5.1) two iPhone 4 (iOS 5.1), MacBook (10.7.4) and G4 tower (10.5.8). We have a CenturyLink DSL modem and Apple Airport Extreme. The printer prints VERY fast in b&w draft mode, 2-sided and the quality in this mode is surprisingly great!

This was so easy to set up and works wonderfully! Its a little heavier than some AOI Printers and doesnt hold as much paper but it works great wirelessly without all of the cords! Works great printing from iPhone and iPad2.

This printer does everything it promises I no longer need a computer. I print everything from my phone or Kindle. Very pleased.

The HP Envy sets up well with Mac, the network was easy to set up,and all the web based applications works well. If you are buying this for Mac and you are running OSX 10.8 Mountain Lion you have to down load software and firmware from HP web site not from disk.Through Mac Airplay the Wireless Scanning and print to document feature works well with no lag. In short no problems as of yet,Iam glad i bought it.
