This review is from: HP Photosmart Plus Wireless e-All-in-One Printer (CN216A#B1H) (Office Product)
Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?)
The printer was packaged in a light weight tote bag in the box, so I could just easily pull out the printer. In the box, there was a complementary 4x6 glossy photo paper (100pack) with a set of ink. A power cable and a brick came in a reusable cloth pouch, and I thought that was very nice idea since it's less trash and easily recyclable.
Setting up the printer couldn't be easier, even with wifi set up. I took about 15-20 minutes to set up everything: wifi, hp software, and the first time printer warm up. I also did not need to connect any USB cable to set up; instead, I was able to connect to my wifi network without any hassle. This printer alone acts like a computer, and it included a step by step set up assistant on the main screen, which was great. The instructions might show only WEP for security option, but I was able to connect to WPA2 with no problem, even in the closed network (airport extreme.) And since this printer has wifi connectivity, I didn't need any extra...Read more

This is a fairly decent printer for the money, except that "for the money" goes a little further than the advertised price. I mean that after I had printed only around twenty pages in black and white, the computer told me it was running low on ink. Yes, like most inkjet printers, this comes equipped with seemingly trial ink cartridges. I cannot say that I like this, which is why I prefer laser to ink (for various reasons, not just because of the cartridges), but it is there none the less. This does have to be pointed out at the first of this review because the box might as well say: "ink cartridges required". With the latter concerned, this printer takes three different cartridges equaling the total sum of around fifty dollars. If you are going to purchase this be sure to add that extra $50 to the price so that it is more accurate.
As far as overall ability of this printer, it gets graded:
5 stars on user friendliness,
5 stars on looks,
3.5 stars on...Read more

HP Photosmart Plus B210 e-All-in-One Printer (CN216A#B1H)
I got this printer to replace another older HP printer that I had damaged during a move. So far, I am still impressed with HP for both computers and printers.
I love the packaging with the new HP printers; the all-in-one was in a carry bag to aid in making removal easier. Another great feature is that HP included a whole pack of 4x6 advanced photo paper.
I added the ink cartridges, plugged it in and started the software. I had no problem connecting to my router (I am using WPA security instead of WEP for the router). You can also print and scan directly from the printer and not use the computer at all.
The picture quality is outstanding, bright, clear and sharp colors - all in no time at all.
My other two printers had five ink cartridges and I wasn't sure how this printer would compare with only four ink cartridges. But I am really glad to see that the quality is impressive. When doing a side by side...Read more
