HPSmart -Tank Plus 651 Wireless All-in-One Ink -Tank Printer, up to 2 Years of Ink in Bottles, Auto Document Feeder, Mobile Print, Scan, Copy, Works with Alexa (7XV38A)EPEAT

Just had a friend help me get the HP printer setup. It works like a charm. Great color and sharp printing.

We love this printer. My husband uses it for our small business and it does a great job. Whoever said that this printer is difficult to set up was a college student. That explains everything. My husband is 78 years old and he said that it was simple to set up. The copies are very clear and it prints fast. It doesn't print double-sided copies but who cares? It's not a feature we ever use. We are very please with this copier! We highly recommend it.

Have had many printers in the last five years. This one is making them all look bad. Easy install and setup. Ink is the best part, its been a year and still haven’t had to refill (don’t print everyday but it has been dependable unlike other brands). Downloading the app makes it even easier to navigate. Cost more than most but it has been well worth it so far. The wifi makes it convenient to print. Only concern is no USB print port (if there is i can’t find it and its not easily accessible). Perhaps i should refer to the manual 😂. Works above expectations, print quality is great.

Trying to keep this simple but this is just not a good printer.The good: not much.The plastic used and construction are cheap. Feels flimsy.Trying to install the print heads is simply a pain. You have to use a flashlight to try to see where to install both cartridges, then you have to somehow hold these cartridges while making your hand flatter then a sheet of paper to fit them into a space designed not to allow your hand to fit into while praying you don’t break the flimsy plastic.The print quality was really good…for a few prints until a paper jam screwed up the whole printer. It took two sheets of standard paper instead of one and all of a sudden an error message, on the very tiny screen, keeps saying to reinstall the specified print head cartridge, but it doesn’t say or specify which one. So, reinstalled both and it refuses to print. Now it says the print head cartridges need replacing- after less than 20 prints.HP engineered this thing to be very hard to install and set up, very hard to install the print heads cartridges, very unusable, and their software requirements are the most invasive I have ever seen. You seem to have more privacy rights with malware than with the HP software. It runs only on a wireless setting, so no printer cable connection allowed. Setting up the wifi is very tricky and can only be set up on a 2.4 ghz wifi system. So, if you don’t know if your system has a 2.4 or is a 5 ghz system, might want to check that out before buying this. Many routers have both, but you need to know how to set those up, which brings the ease of use into question. This isn’t made for someone who doesn’t have the knowledge base to troubleshoot whether or not their router supports a 2.4 ghz or 5 GHz, or has dual bands in which to connect to, just something to think about. If you are asking yourself what a 2.4 or 5 GHz router is, ask yourself why should you have to bother with router settings in order to print a picture of your dog. Next, if you decide to buy this, be sure to set the WiFi up correctly from the get-go. When I set this up it identified my router in the settings, so I connected it. Unfortunately it defaulted to 5ghz and therefore would not connect to my computer. After having to troubleshoot, I found the HP site of no use, so off to Google I went. Came across a site saying it has to be a 2.4 connection so I tried setting it up on my 2.4 but it still wouldn’t connect. Long story short- took 30 minutes to reset the entire printer, remove the printer from the computer, reinstall the printer, and finally got it to work. So complicated.It does have some good features though, but not many. The fact that it has the ink bottles is good, and they are not difficult to fill so that part HP did right. One other thing that is perhaps the most fantastic part of the printer is…This is the only printer I have seen with handles on the plastic wrapping it comes shipped in so getting it out of the box is very easy. However, keep in mind you will need to keep this plastic wrapping and box….because you will probably have to send it back like I am doing.

I hate printers but this one seems to solve it all easy to use and set up love the tank system

Setup ProcessThe initial setup was slightly confusing, but once I figured it out, it didn't take very long to get everything up and running. The instructions could be a bit clearer, but with a bit of patience, I managed to complete the setup without major issues.Ink and PrintingOne of the major selling points of this printer is that it comes with ink included, which is a fantastic bonus. The printer claims that the ink will last up to 2 years before needing a refill. While I have only had the printer for a short period of time and cannot yet verify this claim, it is an impressive feature if true.Print QualityThe print quality is excellent. The prints come out beautifully, with sharp text and vibrant colors. It handles both documents and photos with ease, producing professional-quality results that I am very satisfied with.Wireless ConnectivityConnecting the printer to my computer via WiFi was straightforward, and it has been a game-changer. I no longer have to run any cords across the room, which keeps my workspace neat and organized. The wireless functionality works flawlessly, and I can print from anywhere in my home.Scanner and Printer OptionsI have used both the scanner and printer functions extensively, and both perform exceptionally well. The scanner produces high-quality scans quickly, and the printer operates efficiently without any issues.ConclusionOverall, the HP Smart-Tank Plus 651 Wireless All-in-One Ink-Tank Printer is a fantastic investment for anyone needing a reliable, high-quality printer. Despite a slightly confusing setup process, the benefits far outweigh this minor inconvenience. The included ink, excellent print quality, wireless connectivity, and reliable scanning and printing functions make this a standout product. I highly recommend it to anyone in need of a versatile and efficient all-in-one printer.

This is wireless & that means wireless. It's as laggy as any other low priority IoT device, and scanning in particular is a nightmare. Regular printing? Unless you print 24/7 expect to reboot the printer to get it back online.The tank system is interesting but at our lower volume of printing, I expect to replace tanks along with ink.I should have known better.
