> 3 dayLooks great. Works via AirPrint on iPhone/iPad flawlessly. Held back by poor print quality (wavy text) and voracious ink appetite.

> 3 dayExcellent team, excellent work, very useful. Since I bought it has not failed and the quality is very good. The only downside is the size as much space on your desktop.

> 3 dayPrinter looks great and does everything as advertised. Connecting wirelessly was a cinch. On regular paper colors are not vibrant. For its size it is a dynamo.

> 3 dayThe 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.

Greater than one weekIf you want to use this printer with Windows 8 try this: Go to HPs website,find the Customer Support page, type in the model, in my case the Envy 110e D411a. Then click on the driver tab, which will take you to Drivers and Downloads page. You will have two choices FULL SUITE or BASIC driver which provides support for windows 8. I tried to use HPs CD (Version 24,2.0) software but the set up application wound not work. Got an error regarding the operating system, and needing to upgrade?. I chose the BASIC driver option. Downloaded to my Envy dv6 notebook and it worked like a charm. I bypassed configuring for a wireless connection, I was anxious to find out if the machine simply worked, and used the USB option. I made a test copy print of a screenshot that was saved in File Explorer Libraries. Worked! The printout looked fine. I am no techie and that was the first print I have ever done. Never had a printer before this Envy 110e which I got used from a neighbor who is always buying newer stuff. She had it for less tan a year. I asked her why she bought another printer, also HP, and she said something about the way this printer uses ink cartridges. I guess she wanted and got something wherein the ink costs less or is easier to replace. Other than wanting another printer that loaded ink differently, she said she had no issues with the printer. I know this is vague but I really didnt quite understand her reason. I am leaving five stars for HPs driver support and the ease of set up for this machine. I have had less than 24 hours of experience with the printer. I will update if I run into some serious issues. I intend to use this printer for an occasional copy of troubleshooting steps for my notebook or, ahem, printer. Sorry to the folks who have had problems with their printer. On an additional note: You can also find HPs PRINT and SCAN DOCTOR tool on the Drivers and Downloads page for the Envy 110e for which an icon will appear in your Start Menu if you are using Win 8.

> 3 dayI really like the idea that it has apps to print from. It is small and clean. I can print from my iPad, have a fax number without a land line to send and receive. Great so far.

> 3 dayI bought this to have in my motor home. It is basically the size of the old VHS players. It also loads paper through the front and you would only need to remove it from a cabinet if you wanted to copy/scan a document. As it is wireless, you can print from you laptop or even from you portable device (iPhone, iPod, etc) using AirPrint or HP ePrint. You can also view and print pictures from you camera card with it. Super product with tons of apps.

> 3 dayPicked 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.
