It struggles to use it
All I fkn wanted to do was attach my new iPhone 17 and it took 2 hrs to figure out how.. it was harder to use on new phone then the og set up .. horrible experience
Printer never works and always always always has connection issues and won’t connect to WiFi can’t add printer to app it’s always something and you can only Communicate with bots it’s so far and there is no way to get live app support I have tried all the troubleshooting options and nothing works I am beginning to think this is on purpose so you will upgrade to a new printer
This was a horrible experience trying to connect my new iPad to our HPPrinter. We connected our Android phones no problem. After spending a hour found out I have to pay $65 year for privilege of printing and if I hadn’t chosen yearly and opted for weekly it was $10 per week or $350 per year. What kind of rip off is this?!
A really good app that guides you around with what you need to have done with your printer, such as mirror a picture, scan a picture, fix colors, this and that and what not. Like it.
To connect shutdown printer and turn back on
The old scan function (use the printer to scan a file) is missing on the new app update for the HP 9120 series printer and only allows scan to HP Cloud. This type of scan only allows a JPEG file to be created and you must use the small printer keypad display to type the file name not your mobile device. On my HP 9010 series printer the original scan function still exists and I’m able to scan documents and save them as a PDF file on my mobile device . Please return the old scan to a file function. I’m using app version 26.1.3
Difficulty printing photos from desktop
Too hard to use, it prints sometimes and other times it just sits and want print at all very frustrating
