HP DeskJet 3755 vs HP OfficeJet 250

Unfortunately, it doesn't print many pages before its cartridges run out of it, so you'll spend a lot of money on buying new cartridges, especially if you print a lot of 30-page documents often. Also, it's very slow at printing, and you may get frustrated waiting for your documents and photos to print, especially if there's a lot. That said, if you're okay with the compromises for a model with a small footprint, it's the most compact printer we've tested, which is impressive considering it has a scanner.

It is now replaced by OfficeJet Pro 7740 I believe?. It's cartridge based so if you're not going to use it often, purchase a couple of extra heads as it will dry out.

Based on our testing, overall text quality is average for an inkjet, with average text quality, sub-par graphics, and above-par photo quality. For the four standard fonts in our test suite, it was better than usual for an inkjet, while it had problems with with the three more exotic fonts in the suite. As long as you stick to commonly used fonts, you should be fine.

These match the running costs of the OfficeJet 200. The printer uses two cartridges: one for black ink and one tricolor (yellow/cyan/magenta). The high-yield black cartridge is rated at up to 600 pages, while the high-yield color cartridge is rated at up to 415 pages, considerably in excess of the highest-capacity cartridges offered by Canon and Epson. You shouldn't have to change cartridges all that frequently, which is a real strength in a mobile printer

If you need a very basic, inexpensive printer that has a small footprint, this is the one.

We have used HP printers and All-in-ones since the early 1990s in our offices, so I am well familiar with the brand, and the quality. This device simply did not live up to what I expected, and I returned it to Amazon because of that. It's too heavy, too bulky to justify carrying around for average "adequate" quality. On the one trip I took it on, I left it in the trunk, and instead stopped by a WalMart along the way and bought a "disposable" $35 printer that I just left at the hotel for housekeeping/bell services to have when I was done, and had a family member ship me my trusty old ScanSnap S1100 scanner - and I got better results

As for the set up. I saw someone mention they were glad they had a PC for this set up because it made it easier, but from what we experienced, setting up the wireless printing for my wife's mac book was more easier than her PC. You simply activate the wifi on the printer, look up the wifi single on on your computer and connect. Was is super easy and intuitive? No

Hoping this will serve me well and reliably on my many trips where I don't have WiFi.

Definitely get what you pay for! I barely print and ink lasts only about 6 weeks and I get the xl. Have bought ink 3 times since March and don’t use printer much, maybe a few sheets a month. Disappointed.

I run an ebay business, and I love my LP 2844 thermal printer. Its old as hell, but I bought it used for like $40, I can get free labels from UPS and it's printed several thousand labels for me while needing no maintenance or extra costs such as ink, toner, or paper. Now compare that to my roommates HP OfficeJet 8020, which constantly seems like it has something wrong with it and needs costly new ink, you see why I'm wondering if there are full size thermal printers. If there aren't or they aren't a realistic solution, what is my cheapest option as far as initial costs and upkeep? I'm moving into a new place by myself soon so I need something full size

One thing, I do wish that HP tech-support was a little bit more accessible. I tried really hard to find a customer service line or a tech-support line in order to get some assistance but I wasn’t able to do so. I was also super pressed for time so I’d rather just buy the USB cord and get it done. The only reason I would rate this four stars, would be the fact that the print quality is actually really good for what it’s worth

Is there a good printer that can be out of the way, print Letter size, scan A4 size, and accept files from my android?

Unfortunately, this feature was disabled by default (at least on this printer). When I tried to register I kept getting a rather innocuous error. After a bit of frustration and way too much time, I found reference to how to enable it, but using a browser to connect to the printer directly. Cool - except I was prompted for a password, which wasn't provided anywhere

Click on the the same "DIRECT-00-HP OfficeJet 250" connection and reconnect. (default password is 12345678). 5. Wait
