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

What a great designed and practical printer. Ease to use with IPad and IPhone. My wife is a neat organized Oberon and always disliked the big bulky printer in our office at home. This one works great and the design gives the office a upper scale look.

I admired the design of the original Envy 100 but held off on buying one. I just went ahead with the updated 110 model this past weekend. The printer was a breeze to set up. My PC established an ad hoc wi-fi network with it and securely transmitted at my primary home networks info securely to the printer itself and then switched both back to my regular wi-fi network (802.11g with WPA2). After that completed, the printer just worked without requiring any configuration on the printer itself. Printing from my laptop or from my iPhone works perfectly. Earlier reviews had talked about the tray and panel not closing properly - that all seems to be working fine for me. The printer is almost silent in its operation. Its so sleek and stylish that it looks perfectly in place sitting on an side table in my living room. I havent used the e-fax feature yet but am glad to have it. For the occasional sending or receiving of faxes, being able to do so without a land line is a welcome feature. It costs a bit more but the design and operation are superior to the inexpensive options, in my opinion.

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.

I bought this for under $100 so I was surprised to see the asking price now. 5 stars for connectivity and longevity (3 years still running in a small business) 1 star for ink drinking 5 stars for being compact and not collecting much dust (surprising) 4 stars for speed 5 stars for quiet operation I bought a highly rated Canon wireless printer for under $150 for home use and a spaceship arrived on my doorstep that decided when it wanted to connect to the network and when not to with no warning. When it did work it was slow and sounded like the spaceship it looked like. Yikes. I would welcome with open arms a new HP envy 100 e-All-in-One even with its Yink tendencies.

AMAZON IS THE BEST BUY! The store named Best Buy claims to have a 30 return policy. I bought an HP printer from the so-called Best Buy store and I soon ran out of ink. I also had a terrible time with the HP printer. The HP printer had very little ink, it took forever too get the printer to start, it made a lot of noise when compared to other Brand named printers, it took a long time to print let alone shut down and it printed a test page that used up a great amount of INK without me directing it to. The HP printer also has very little INK that comes with the HP printer and when I purchased extra regular INK cartridges I ran out very soon. I found this out with HP printers; very little INK. If you buy a regular HP ink cartridge you are buying what I call a sample HP INK cartridge since it runs out of ink quickly. If you think about it the HP cartridges that show 2.5 times more INK are the same size as the regular cartridges. You then have to ask, how much ink do they really put in the regular OVER priced HP INK cartridges? I considered myself cheated when I bought the regular sized cartridge. My personal opinion is that the HP 2.5 times more INK cartridges run out after printing only about 50% more than the regular overpriced HP INK cartridges while you end up paying a lot more. The only good thing about my experience with the Best Buy store is that I was able to try out the HP INK supply and the printers performance! I could suggest doing the same but I wont. I will state that I wasnt shy returning the HP printer to the Best Buy store because I was not afraid of this chain store and I was not satisfied with the performance of the HP Printer. Best Buy says you have 30 days to return the HP Printer you should have 30 days but this is a misnomer! I tried the HP printer I bought from the Best Buy store and I didnt like its performance. The Best Buy store states that you can return it within 30 days for a full refund if you dont like its performance. I took the Best Buy store for their word and I returned the HP printer to the Best Buy store after 25 days of use. The Best Buy store would not take the return without me signing a statement stating that I would not return anything I buy until after a 90-day period from the time I returned the HP Printer. I should have told them to F off and accept my return without signing their statement. The Best Buy store also wants a photo ID from everyone when they return something. If the item is being charged back to your credit card then you should not have too give them any ID! This amounts too invasion of privacy (Big Brother). AMAZON IS THE BEST BUY! AMAZON DOES NOT ASK FOR A PHOTO ID! My opinion is that the Best Buy store is not the BEST BUY! I believe Amazon is the BEST BUY! MY OPINION IS THAT Amazon does have the BEST BUY. Amazon is not like the so-called Best Buy store. It is my opinion that Amazon ALWAYS gives you the BEST BUY. I will stay committed to Amazon and quit buying from the so-called Best Buy store. Amazon has fantastic delivery, great service, in most states no tax, in most cases free shipping, extended warranties are available and Amazon will take care of any problems immediately, unlike the so-called Best Buy store!

This is a replacement for my HP 7100 printer whose printer head exploded and made a HUGE mess - I am still pissed about this one. The 110e Envy seems easy to use and so far has worked without issue. The speed is not great but it get the job done and I like the compact size. I have used the eFax feature to send one fax without an problem but I have not yet received any faxes - not that I receive more than 2 or 3 a year - but it is still nice to have the capability. The set-up is simple and I only needed to plug in the printer and everything else - network hook-up and fax set-up - can be done through the WiFi. The only comment on the set-up was I am running Mountain Lion on a Mac Pro and the enclosed software was not compatible. A simple search on Google followed by a download resolved the issue in less than 10 minutes so its not a concern. This is a nice printer - I just hope the printer head doesnt explode like it did on the 7100.

I was amazed at how easy it was to setup, how beautiful the prints and copies are. No more faxing for us. This printer stores them on my computer and I attach them as emails. GREAT product.

If the printer has not been used for a while it will drop the network connection. What I mean by a while is one or two days. The solution is to unplug the router for a few seconds then restart the router. The printer will then be on the network. I have ckd various blogs and this problem is pretty consistent. I would not recommend this printer.

Perfect in size and worked like expected

Received unit with dispatch and installed it without any problems wha-so-ever...this is an E-Print device and I have tested the printing function throughly and Im impressed...the quality and response to enable the print command from my PC or my IPAD 4, is surperb....If anyone considers e-printing or simply a print function for ones PC or Laptop...I recommend this device to anyone and everyone. Just a great pirinter to have!
