I feel like there should be a person that we can talk to walk you through the setup process for the person who is not tech savvy and that is scared of doing something wrong and to be able to see that the product works and if they have a problem they can talk them through it and they can get it written up for them to get fixed or whatever they can help them with so that way you don't lose a customer who needs the product that they have bought from you and they will come back for years to come and recommend it to others

Was not happy with printer. Too slow. Wouldn't print properly on canvas which I explained to the sales rep was VERY important. Returned printer.

Somewhat disappointing since this printer is a replacement for a laser jet - This printer cannot print double side, it won't support an HP Printer software that will let my older iMac print in color and it doesn't have a document feeder. Sorry I didn't ask more questions.

The 5101 HP Printer was easy to operate. I ordered from HP and it came in a box that was packaged very well to prevent any damage. Easy to install ink and get on line and easy to operate. The app is full of information about the product and what it can do. Great for my home use.

The printer works great. It was easy to set up even with the tank option. However, the software was confusing and did not set up easily. I was hoping for a better experience with the AI printing.

A dissapointment to find out that the paper loader is on the outside and other functions as double side printing is a annoyance. Apparently I picked a printer for kids. No USB cable came with the printer, and it took almost two days to get it operational.

Installation was long and convoluted. Print time was unacceptably, long especially for a miniscule Excel document - hours in this case. Returned the 5101 and purchased an Office Jet Pro 9135e.

The power cord for this printer does not fit well into the slot. It falls out too easily.

The HP Smart Tank is nice, the print quality isn't as good as my last printer. Some of the parts seem cheaply designed and the display system isn't as user friendly.

It wouldn't work because my wifi is 5G and this all-in-one works on 2.4G. Had to return it.

The printer is working great. No problems. It was easier to fill the tanks than I anticipated.

This was the best HP setting up I have ever used. Hooked wifi within seconds. No other has been able to do that. Time will tell. For the price and amount of ink coming with it, its a good buy

Does not work, way too complicated, they make the program fail to complete until you give data.

A long pause before printer responds to print command...Too difficult and unwieldy when printing double sided pages....Ink longevity is good.

Its a nice printer...Works as it is suppose to and think it will do better with these ink tanks then regular cartridges...

I was reluctant to purchase a printer that relied on liquid ink, thinking the ink would evaporate or be a mess when I tried to fill the ink canisters. In fact, it was so easy that I had to call HP and make sure that I'd done correctly. The ink vials have a notched opening that perectly fits the canisters - there's no way to spill the ink. The test sheet was perfect for color alignment, and we're very pleased with this printer.

Unless something is printing, most of the lighting is off making it difficult to use! Even when something is printing, some of the lighting is off!

I called HP when I needed a new printer because I had one in my home for years and I had worked with HP printers on many job sites. They are easy to set up and use immediately.

I am not sure I am glad that I bought this one. It worked at first but after about a couple of weeks it now will not print the files on my computer that I want to make a copy of.

I admit I didn't do good research when I chose this product; I did not know the paper would be held outside the machine, subjecting it to changes in humidity, static, etc. I also didn't realize it doesn't do automatic two-sided printing, which is a feature I need, so if you need it, too, don't buy this machine. I wanted ink tanks to keep from constantly having to change cartridges; it was very easy to introduce the inks, and the quality of printing is excellent. Other than that, all the indicators and buttons are on top of the machine, which makes it very awkward to read any error messages unless you place the printer well below eye level. That definitely didn't work for me. Paper loading is incredibly awkward and inconvenient, and the slot for paper very badly designed. This makes double-sided printing a real pain, since you have to manually re-insert the paper to do that. The upshot is that I'm giving it to a non-profit who won't be troubled by these deficiencies and buying an Epson that's better designed. Expensive lesson. Learn from mine.
