HP - my new fave printer
I havent had a personal printer at home in quite some time and HP is setting the standard. My first impession was modern and stylish looking machine. The printer itself isnt too bulky and is very light weight. The setup is fast and easy, even for the least tech savvy person. The printing speed is surprisingly fast and the quality is excellent. Colored prints are vivid and couldnt be better. My favorite feature is the wireless printing from your mobile device. The full size scanner is a great feature as well. I definitely recommend this printer for anyone looking for a personal or small business printer! Cant go wrong.

Super nice prints
This printer was really good at printing color pictures, I printed some on regular palate and photo paper and both came out really nice. The process of setting it up was super easy my 15 yr old did it. It’s not complicated at all and the printing is phenomenal. I would definitely recommend it to my friends and family.

Perfect printer for my needs!
This printer is perfect for my household needs. Great size doesn't take up a lot of room. Pretty easy to set up the printer to my wi-fi and to my computer. The only issue was in the instructions it made it seem like we should take off the tape looking thing on the printer cartridge, it ended up ruining the cartridge and we had to go out and spend $50 for a new one. There is a tape looking thing at the end of the cartridge, on the instructions it looks like you are supposed to remove, don't do it. Great print quality and easy connectivity.

Great Easy to Use at Home Printer
We purchased the HP DeskJet 4255e Printer for our home. I typically print coupons, medical documents and things for my children's school projects. As well as scanning in or faxing documents occasionally. And this printer was a perfect fit. Print speed is better then I expected for a smaller at home printer. The print on the pages come out crisp and clear. And best of all, the printer came with ink cartridges. There were also easy instructions for setting up the printer to be used with our cell phones- which was a very important feature for us when looking for printers. And most importantly, the printer works wirelessly. We're very happy with this purchase and highly recommend this printer.

Best HP Compact Printer
I am very impressed of the HP 4255e desk printer. It was very easy to install and runs beautifully. Connecting to the WIFI was very easy with the help of the HP app. It’s a 3 in 1 printer. It can copy, scan and print with little effort. A novice of technology will love it because the set up is so easy. I have had several printers and I find this one to be the best. It is also very compact that fits anywhere. A very useful feature is the subscription of auto delivery with HP for ink. It will send you more ink when you are running out. This printer is so versatile and so easy to operate. I highly recommend it to everyone.

Used the printer once then it stopped feeding paper. Kind of hard to print without the paper. Very disappointing.

HP Printers March Campaign
This HP 4255e printer was fairly easy to set up, from start to finish taking about 15 minutes, as you have to create a profile online and set it up through your smartphone. You also have to subscribe to a monthly or yearly membership. This allows you to print directly from your phone to your printer from wherever you are, as long as you’re on Wi-Fi. HP also gave a big discount on ink with this subscription.
The lack of noise and printing speed of this 4200 series is pretty impressive.
Also, I would like to point out that the photo I posted of the flowers is printed on regular paper and not photo paper. I did that on purpose to show how vivid the colors are even on regular paper. It took about 7 seconds to print that large color picture!! I tried posting the video of it printing but it wouldn’t upload.
In conclusion, I would definitely recommend the HP 4255e printer as it can definitely handle whatever home or small business printing projects you have!

Printing Perfection
I've been a loyal user of HP printers for decades and I can honestly say that the newest addition to my home office. the HP Deskjet 4255e, did not disappoint. The set-up was easy and intuitive, I had no issue connecting it to my home Wi-Fi or getting it going. My computer quickly picked up the new printer and was able to print without any fuss. I've found that over the last month there's been no noticeable depreciation of the ink despite regular color/bw use and the print quality is exceptional. Overall, I highly recommend this model of HP printer and have nothing but positive feedback regarding the performance.

HP Deskjet works great
I received the HP Deskjet 4255e and unpacked it immediately. I followed the easy setup directions & was printing beautiful pages both in color & black & white within 10 minutes. The print is very crisp and clean and will make running our small family business very easy. I love the quality of the pages and the professional look. Now my estimates and billing statements will look professional. Thanks HP!
I received this printer at a discounted price in exchange for my honest opinion.

Perfect Size
The HP DeskJet 4255e is a great addition to my home office. I am pleased that the printer is a 3 in 1 as I use my printer to print out things on a regular basis. Also I am a huge fan of instant ink and this printer is instant ink compatible. Now I do not have to worry with running out of ink. It was easy to set up with my wifi network and I use the hp app that goes along with the printer. So far as the pages being printed. The pages come out a nice quality and no smears. The buttons are easy to access and the paper is easy to load.
Overall I am very pleased with the quality and print speed.

Best printer to have
I received the deskjet 4255e from HP. It arrived safely in great packaging. This was so easy to set up straight from the box and I was using it within minutes. The app for the phone and software download for ky laptop didn't take but a few minutes to set up for use. The printer prints great with vibrant colors as well as black and white. The printing wasn't slow either. The scan and copy feature was great as well. I highly recommend this printer whether for a small business or just for home use.

Does it’s job!
Overall, the HP DeskJet 4255e does exactly what it’s supposed to do. It was easy to set up and I was printing within 15 minutes. The quality of printing was clear and professional. The color photo turned out crisp and clear. I wish the paper tray held more sheets of paper. The photo printing was slower than expected. So, overall- it does its’s job! Curious on how long the printing cartridges will last and how expensive it will be to replace.

Nice little HP printer!
I got this all-in one desk jet printer by HP, thanks to the Insiders campaign. You can print, scan, fax and copy with this compact, wireless printer. It has an automatic, 35 page document feeder, making it easy to print or copy multiple items. I connected it very easily using the HP print app. You can print, scan, copy, or fax right from your smartphone, tablet or desktop computer using the HP print app. Setup took about 20 minutes and it was really easy using the HP set up instructions. This HP DeskJet 4255e, all-in-one printer is the perfect size for your desk. I do highly recommend this HP printer for printing, scanning, copying or faxing. It’s the perfect little printer for your home office use.

incredibly practical and comfortable
Apparently it looks like a simple printer, but when you get to see its brain and the countless functions it has, your jaw drops.
Its configuration is very easy, which makes it suitable for all types of audiences, the connection between devices is very easy.
What I liked most is being able to print my documents from anywhere and not having to be close or connected to the same network
The print quality is very good, it takes time to print in color or pages with a lot of content but the result is very positive. The 3 free months of supplements allow you to test this machine more frequently. without a doubt the best friend for your home or small business

Great Lightweight Printer
I was in need of a new printer after my last HP printer that I have had for over 10 years started acting up. I knew I was always going to go with HP because I absolutely love the HP Instant Ink program! I would never have a printer without it. I love that I don't have to monitor my ink levels. When my ink starts to get low, HP automatically sends me new cartridges to have on hand for when my current ones run out! All you do is pay a small monthly fee and ink just magically appears at your door and you don't even have to pay extra for it. As for the performance of the printer itself. It was very easy to set up. The step-by-step instructions that were included made it very easy to plug in and follow along. The printer is lightweight and easy to move around if needed. I was happy that it fit into the small space that my previous printer was in. I am able to print from my laptop, tablet and phones which makes it so convenient. The print speed and quality are awesome. I have been able to print documents and photos with ease and they all turned out great. The scanner works quickly and scans to a high quality print. Overall I am very happy with my purchase and I would definitely recommend HP and this particular printer model to anyone who is looking for a new in-home printer.

Easy set up and Go!
I needed a newer printer to do my taxes and other forms for my small business but did not want something too big for my space so I chose this one. It was a very easy set up with wifi and I was able to start printing right away.
I used the copy feature to see if the colors would match and they matched very well. I then printed using the black and white prints for documents and it was fast and printing well from across the house. I then tried to use the color print for a photo and it took me a little while to figure out how to do so. I chose not to use the automatic ink ordering system and I am not sure if that created an issue withe the downloaded software. I use a MacBook Pro laptop with the newest OS system. At first all I could get was a black and white print but then I found if I went into the EAsy Start software instead of the Smart software and chose print photo I had the option of printing in color. I am not going to use this for color photos as I see lines in the print. They are not too noticable until one gets close but they are there. I will use it for color documents if I can find that feature without using the EAsy Start software. I will update as I go along as to how one can print in color and avoid using the photo menu.

Fast and Foolproof Duplex Printing
If you have a home office setup and frequently print or scan documents you'll appreciate the speed of the HP DeskJet printer and the duplex scanner.
The set-up through the app is instant and the automated refills are really convenient. Being able to print documents from my phone is a big help and I had a refill delivered to my door without having to press a single button.
The size is relatively compact and fits well into an office or living room setup.

Great printer
The printer was pretty easy to setup using the app. Once I got it setup and printed my first few pages the printer could no longer be found. I spent a day trying to figure it out on my own and two plus hours with tech support. After while they stated it was because I had a VPN installed on my phone. I took it off and it still did not work. I did manage to use a household members phone and after about an hour plus it eventually connected to theirs. Not sure what the issue was with that phone as it did not have a VPN. It is a nice little printer for small print Jobs. I find that it goes a little slow for me compared to what I'm use to. I was provided with three months free instant ink which is a plus and saves money. Once I signed up for that I was offered a monthly subscription to recieve paper with my ink as well when they are low. I love having that automatically and I no longer have to search for ink to purchase.

Sleek and Quick
I have owned HP printers in the past and it has lasted me a long time so I am not new to the hp brand. I am loving the HP DeskJet 4255e. It is so clean looking and fits nicely into a small space. The setup was seamless and easy via wifi and also creating my account with HP. The printer is great for home use. I would not recommend for business use. However, this is a budget printer that has all the essentials you would need. It prints quick whether in black or color. It has e-printing and makes printing anywhere around the house very easy. Although I am giving this printer 5 stars, I didn't like the tiny screen.

Great printer for home use
The HP4255e printer is easy to configure with wifi, it's great for home use projects, it prints fast and its colors are very good, it comes with 3 months of free ink and with the HP+ subscription option which has no cost and good benefits such as print when you are not at home with the hp smart app and order inks at a very low cost and an extra year of warranty protection. Definitely a very good investment at a very low cost.

Great printer for small jobs
I was pleasantly surprised at how lightweight this printer is. It's not big and bulky. The initial set up was simple and the directions were easy to follow. Once you install the app on your device it will also walk you through set up. The paper tray is small and it will not hold a lot of paper. It's great if you don't print a lot at once. The digital screen is small and it's a little difficult to read. I do love that this comes with a free 3 month trial that provides you with ink. Once the 3 month trial is over the actual monthly price is really a good deal.

Satisfied customer
I chose the HP DeskJet 4255e to replace my current HP Envy Printer. I like using the HP Smart Print App and the HP Instant Ink program. The app made setting up the printer, connecting to my Wi-Fi network simple. I was also able to activate the 3 months free trial of HP Instant Ink, remove my old printer and add the new printer to my existing account. HP Smart Print allows me to wirelessly print, scan, copy and fax on the go. The printer is a bit noisy, but it prints fast and the print quality is good. It's a great All in One printer for home users. I'm very satisfied with my purchase.

It can accommodate 60 pages in the inout tray. The printer gets automatic updates. Overall, a high quality printer for your daily printing, copying and scanning needs.

Fast and Efficient! Setup Issues
I was really excited to try out this new HP DeskJet 4255e to replace my old HP Envy printer. Upon my first impression, it was well packaged and looking great. It was larger than I expected, but very lightweight and easy to move around.
Once I plugged in the printer, I noticed that a blinking white light alerted me that more steps were needed to connect and setup the printer, but not much easy indicated what to do. I looked over the quick start reference guide that came with the printer and noticed I would need to download the "HP Smart" software to set things up. This was NOT easy and the software crashed several times after I downloaded it and tried to set up the printer. I had to power cycle both the printer and laptop a few times, then use the HP Print and Scan Doctor software from the HP website to diagnose the issue. Next, I downloaded a basic driver software package from the HP website before the doctor software would recognize and connect to the printer. After all of this work, I was able to set up the printer swiftly.
I test printed after everything was set up and the ink cartridges installed. The printer was very fast and the printing results were very satisfactory for a home printer. I would give the printer 5 stars, but the convoluted and difficult set up process forces me to lower the ranking to 4.

Needed an upgrade and got one!
After using an HP 2752e for 3 years, I finally upgraded to an HP DeskJet 4255e. The set up is so super easy because of the HP Smart app, and the ink replenishment service is amazing! After a small hiccup of the paper feeding sideways from the main back tray, I have this thing figured out! I love that it also has a top feed option for copies, yet still maximizes my desk space.

HP 4255e Printer
Printer is easy to set up, basically a plug and use product. Prints crisp pages quickly. best feature is the easy ink. No more running out and having to hunt for ink or paper. The easy program is worth the extra few dollars to join for piece of mind of always having ink available. Very good printer for a student or someone who prints a lot.

HP DeskJet 4255e printer surpassed my expectations. Upon opening and installing, it was lightweight and user friendly with easy to follow guides from computer/cellphone apps.

Great new printer
I got my HP DeskJet 4255e printer and got it set up. I know it's set up was easy, but I had my 19 year old grandson come over to help me. He's much better at doing stuff like this than I am.
Anyway I love this printer. I've been having so much fun learning about it. So far, it is amazing. One of my favorite features is the instant ink. It knows when I need ink and will send it before I need it. I've printed pictures and they come out so nice. As good as getting them printed in the store.
I've printed photos, recipes, cute cartoons, and instructions. Take time to learn the printer and try different features. It does everything I need it to and then some. I'm still learning.

Perfect for my small business
Extremely easy set up took me about 5 minutes from Start to finish to set up the printer. Crystal clear prints and copy's no blurry colors or uneven printing. Also I printed 100 pages with colors and black and white and it took less than 6 minutes to print all 100. I am extremely impressed with this printers capability and being compacted is a bonus it fits perfectly on my dresser makes almost no noise while printing and coping

Not As Easy As They Say
I received my printer which was package extremely well and immediately unpacked everything to start installing the printer. The installation was easy and did not take me long since I already had HP Smart downloaded and also subscribe to Instant Ink. I was up and printing in no time. Then I started to have problems. I printed about 15 pages which involved using both the color and black in cartridges. Then my color cartridge ran out of ink. The printer would not let me print using only the black cartridge. A page printed out and said I would only be able to print reports. I waited 5 days to receive the new cartridge and then the HP Smart App kept saying the printer was offline. I did numerous troubleshooting tips, ran the Print & Scan Doc App, and everything else imaginable to try and get the HP Smart app to recognize the printer was actually online. I don't know what I finally did to make it show to be online but it finally showed to be online.
I have not had much of an opportunity to use the printer since I had the above mentioned problems but what printing I have completed has been of good clear quality. I have printed from my laptop, iPhone, and tablet with no difficulties now. It is a quiet printer and I look forward to using it for many years to come in hopes that I do not have any connection issues like I mentioned. Fingers crossed!

Solid printer but software needs work
The HP DeskJet 4255e Wireless All-in-One Color Inkjet Printer is a great printer to have at home for regular usage. It doesn’t print out fast per se but it does print out detailed and precise. I enjoyed its ability to connect to wifi and print anywhere you are even if you’re miles away using the HP Smart app. The printer has two types of scanner by photocopy or scanning your document through. Quite convenient for home. I would say this isn’t a printer for businesses as it can only print 25 pages at a time and is a little slow at printing. Definitely a personal use printer such as for school or printing important documents time to time. The reason I deducted a whole star is that currently with the software there is an issue of print PDF files. I had to contact support to see what was going on and was made aware that it is an ongoing issue that hasn’t been resolved. Many users use PDF files so it’s an extra step to convert the document and print it out as so. Overall I like the printer and its quality. The added bonus is it does come with 3 months of free ink through HP Instant Ink and has affordable options past that. The Instant Ink keeps track of your ink levels for you so you never have to worry about running out of ink.

Great Product!!!
This product is an all around great help. Very easy to set up and install the needed software. Very thrilled 3 months of instant ink are included. This does a great job copying, printing, and scanning your documents. I replaced an older HP printer with this an I am very pleased with my choice. I love that you load the paper in a a back paper tray that is vertical instead of a horizontal tray. Great quality printing in black and color as well. The product was well packed for shipping and it was protected well for shipping. I would highly recommend this product to anyone looking for an upgrade or a first time purchase of a printer.

Simple Printer
I like the simplicity of this printer even though i think it is kind of slow! If possible i recommend a higher up level! I think a darker color for printer is better and on this model only the white one is available! Another thing that i don’t like is that the ink will not last as long as i expect! The HP application for me is kind of confuse, it took a bit of time to install and i don’t use it! I just press print right after whatever i have to print! The quality of the print is ok! As a simple printer we can only expect so much! If you need to print many pages and fast better look for another way to print, as this printer is not fast and quality specially color wise is not that good. But if you just need a simple printer for home use this will be ok!

Just what i needed
I recieved my Printer and it is perfect. Just what i needed for my home office .
it prints fast The colors are vibrant and no smudging .
I have it hooked up the USB cord, but love the wifi option.
I did have an issue with Printing it kept wanting to save it instead of printing. I little research i found that it needs to be on Microsoft IPPClass driver to print, so once i changed this setting no further issues. Having the smart ink delivery will be a time saver and will save some money.

Good for some, not for all
First impressions out of the box: sleek, lightweight and basic. The screen is very small. My wife doesn't have the best eyesight, so the screen was hard to read. The paper tray can be tucked away when not in use. After removing all the tape, set up was about 15 minutes. Did not see the step 5 in the quick set up guide for set up and animations. But since using a printer before I knew how to install ink and paper. Not a lot of paper will fit in the loading tray, just a pinch, so not ideal for big projects. Wireless printing worked great. Printing speed was efficient. Even tried to print a photo using HP glossy photo paper. It took 1 minute & 15 sec but the picture came out nice. This printer is good for printing and copying documents; small projects only. Photo printing is good for a couple of photos, not an album. But also not sure how many photos you can get before new ink cartridges are needed. Overall this printer will not work for my family. Its not fast enough and as basic as they come. The screen size is just too small.

Great!
I love this printer! It's replacing an almost 10 year old HP that I have, and I love how fast it prints. It was simple to set up and connect to my wifi, and the free trial of HP Ink is a plus. I like that the copier bed is a nice size, and I like that I can scan or copy multiple pages at a time. I'd highly recommend this for a basic printing needs, home office, or small business needs.

Easy to use
I really like how easy it is to print photos with this printer. Just 2 clicks and it's working. The quality is better than when we ordered prints, and we can print photos when ever we want. A friend of ours needed photos printed for her sons graduation. She was impressed at how quick we could get them done for her. She also said the quality of the prints was every bit as good as the prints she ordered.
My wife uses the printer for printing documents, recipes and recites. She also likes how easy and quick it is.

Worth it.
I really like this printer. What I like even more is the OPTION to be on their renewal ink/paper schedule. THEY KNOW when I need ink, and don't need to panic when I see it start to fade! THEY ARE ON IT! And receiving paper as well, amazing. No panic, as NO where around here sells ink for printers! Great printer, great buy, and I will stay with HP. Been there for decades, won't change.

Great Printer
The HP 4255e all in one inkjet printer is an allround office/home solution. The printer is very well built and is lightweight. It is white in color with a gray accent. It has a small LCD display and several function buttons. It was very easy to set up using the HPSmart app. It comes with two sets of ink, a color cartridge and a black. This printer can be used via USB, Wi-Fi direct, or it can be connected to a network via Wi-Fi. I was able to install it on my Windows PC without the app and Android OS using the HP smart app. If you want to be able to use all the printer features in Windows OS, you will be required to download the HP Smart app. I was not able to use the scanner without the HP smart app. I tried using it with Windows' own scan app, but the printer didn’t even show up on the list. The windows scan app is very limited. Also, you will not be able to scan using HP's own app unless you create an HP account, which I found troublesome.
There are two ways to scan, using the automatic feeder or the flat glass. The glass supports paper size up to A4 or Letter 8.5x11. It seems that this scanner does not support dual side scan. The scan quality is pretty good. When scanning you have to manually select the source as the printer is not smart enough to figure where the document is located. Scanning quality is good and goes up to 1200 dpi with the lowest at 300. The scanning speed was fast and very quiet.
Printing s fast and easy with good quality. This printer holds up to 60 sheets of paper on the paper tray and 35 on the ADF tray. The control panel is a small LCD screen and several buttons. It only displays several settings like paper count, brightness and other common features. On the screen you also have an ink level indicator as well. I missed out on the free 6 months of free ink. Wish I could contact someone about that. Otherwise they have a reasonable price for refilling the ink.
This HP printer and they are reliable. It does the job well, quiet, fast and it’s cost efficient to maintain. It is easy to use and set up. This printer is 60% made of recyclable plastic. It orders inks automatically if you subscribed to the program and you can recycle the used ink cartridges for free. In the box you get the printer, power cord and manuals and two sets of ink.

Perfect printer for my home and family
The HP DeskJet 4255e All-in-One Printer its the perfect printer for me as a someone who resells clothes online. It is very easy to switch from regular paper to labels. Having the paper feeder where I could see was a plus. The convinience of having a feeder to copy pages on the outside its perfect since i do not have to continusly open the printer, I can just put all pages at once. This printer also saves a ton of ink since I print labels, reports, and my grandchild uses for school. The other amazing thing about this printer is that we can print from any device and from anywhere in our home.

It's a good printer, however....
It's a good printer, however, the top part for documents has us both scratching our heads. Neither one of us has seen any instructions on how to work this piece. The printer does a good job printing, standard HP printer stuff. It's better for home use and not for office only because it doesn't make "sharp images" as I agree with one reviewer. HP makes good printers and the ability to have both ink and paper with Instant Ink saves us both time and money (so I'm not running to the store for ink).

Hands down, HP printer's are the best there is. With the easy to follow instructions or with a disk it is so easy to set up your new printer. Super easy to upload and install. Somewhat a little difficult with wi-fi. But would buy HP Printers everytime.

Powerful printer for home office
The HP DeskJet 4255e All-in-One Printer has been a handy addition to my home office. It's small and doesn't take up much space, which I love, and it handles all my printing, scanning, and copying needs without a fuss. The setup was super easy, thanks to the HP Smart app, which walked me through everything step by step. HP Instant Ink is also a savior because it really lowers the cost of inks. Overall, there is nothing bad about this product.

HP DeskJet 4200e
This is a fairly useful printer if you only have to print occasionally. It was very easy to set up and easy to connect to Wifi. I like the ink subscription that automatically orders ink for you so you never run out. For the downsides: The print quality is not as crisp as my other printers. The lines and images are a bit fuzzy around the edges. Secondly, this printer is very loud and disruptive. Finally, it is supposed to print double sided, but I could not figure out how to get it to do that. I researched on the internet and in the owners manual with no luck. Overall, this printer is acceptable quality for basic users, but the quality is not as good as many others I have used.

Perfect printer for my home and family
As I was looking for a new printer for my home and family I decided to get the the 4255e printer since it was an all-in-one printer. Having a teenager in college, my husband working from home, and myself using the printer to print out other stuff this printer has been amazing. My daughter has been able to print her homework from her tablet without having to go to a computer, my husband uses as a scanner for documents, and I have used it to make projects such as banners and invitations. One of my favorite things about this printer is that anyone can print from any device wirelessly and I could also pick the quality of the ink that i want for each project in order to save ink. I do wish that the paper feeder would had been hidden and that it could had had the feature of double sided printing without me manually inserting the papers back to the feeder. Overall it is a good printer and a good decision on getting the 4255e printer.

Great printer!
We have needed a home printer for awhile. Our previous one lasted us a good seven years but it recently bit the dust, so the timing of this campaign was perfect. I love that this printer is roughly the same size as our last but with extra functions! I love the little scan tray on top. I gives the printer “office copier” vibes. All of the buttons and features are clear and it works great!

Perfect for home and office.
I got this printer to use for personal use and for my business. It has been wonderful for both. The print quality has been great, and I love that you can print at different qualities, so I can do quick prints or it will take its time to make the print high quality. It fits perfectly on a thin table or desk without taking up too much room. It was easy to set up and connect to multiple devices with ease. It has feeder trays and extension arms in several places making it easy to take on bigger jobs for work-related projects as well. I would highly recommend it to anyone who needs a good mixed use printer.

Sleek design and compact
The printer is compact and has a sleek design. It has some great features and some not so desirable features. I love that is it compact and that it only uses two ink cartridges. It is super easy to install and set up the app makes scanning super simple. However, some undesirable features I find are that the paper feeder is exposed and at the top of the printer paper to get dusty if you don’t print a lot. If you want to print double sided, you must manually load the paper into the top of the printer for the second side. And it appears you cannot use the printer much without using the app. Otherwise, it seems to print fine for the little amount of printing we do. And the scan to your phone is so easy and definitely helps send clear images of documents if needed.

Standard HP quality
One thing I have always said is that if it's one thing HP does right, it's their printers. With the printers ability to print, copy and scan, it great for everyday use. I unboxed the printer, installed the ink, and turned it on. Very easy set up. You download the HP Smart application, sign in or sign up if it's your first use, link the printer to your account and Voila! You're ready to print. A function I really like is the security printing where it will only print when you are nearby. I haven't found the ability to email the printer something you want to print out, as my previous HP printer had. Also, not quite sure how to use the document printing ability and the instructions don't tell you how to either.. I would recommend this printer because of its easy set up, quick printing, and good quality of the pages it prints. Unfortunately, the first ink is only enough for set up so you have to wait for HP to send you more. For me, it's an excellent upgrade from my previous HP hence the 5 stars.

I couldn't get it to install using the phone app or the computor instructions. I had to call tech support 4 times before we could get the problem resolved. They were VERY helpful. Also had there been a booklet to follow would have been extremely helpful. I still cant get it to make mulitple copies or how to scan. I am so tired of having to go online and look up what the problem is. A booklet would be VERY HELPFUL.

All in one mobile friendly home printer from HP
From unboxing to first print, the process took less than ten minutes—I'm genuinely impressed. As a busy full-time professional, single father, and full-time college student, this printer exceeded my expectations right out of the box. Installing the app on my phone was seamless, and I was up and running in no time. Connecting to Wi-Fi was simple, and the test prints were flawless on the first try. Using the copy function was equally effortless.
I highly recommend this printer for people with busy lives. The added bonus of 3 free months of HP Instant Ink is a great feature. Its compact footprint made it easy to find space for in my already cluttered office. Overall, I would recommend this printer to anyone in need of a reliable, fast, and easy-to-use solution right out of the box.

Wireless, mobile compatible print, scan
The installation of HP DeskJet 4255E was simplified through the connection with the mobile device (I used an iPhone) to set it up. Where I may have needed more details than the set up guide showed, the HP app showed an illustration of the printer and what needed to be checked. It printed the alignment page flawlessly first. Next, when it attempted to print the test page, it wasn’t until over 6 minutes elapsed attempting to go through the processing twice, before it finally printed on the third attempt. I do not like the pull out L shape designed extender that is meant to support paper on the output tray. The extender feels like an oversized plastic bookmark. It doesn’t seem as supportive as traditional full sheet pull out extensions. The test page color print quality is excellent. After that completed, I sent the link to a couple other mobile devices. One iPad was able to use the HP app to connect easily enough. The other iPad did not and I set it aside for a later time. I plan to also connect a laptop and maybe another device or two. It seems like this will be very useful in scanning and printing documents from a variety of devices wirelessly. It is not the quietest printer I have ever used. However, I like the seamless ability to print from a variety of devices, including remotely. When not in use, I disconnect the power cord, which is the only necessary cord. If I sign up for their instant ink ready subscription, HP will supply the first three months at their expense before a monthly fee is charged. Overall, I’m glad I patiently waited for the backordered 4255e to ship.

Fairly good for normal usage
This HP 4255e printer is overall a good printer for average use for per se a student or general office printing. I enjoy have compact it is and easy to install everything from the ink to the software on my computer. It is not the fastest printer but it prints in a decent amount of time. You can only print 25 pages at a time at most but generally for students and/or regular use I don’t think I’d exceed that. I love that it has the option to scan by a light scanner and by scanning through a feeder. The biggest benefit is being able to print directly from your phone anywhere you are. No need to set a reminder or forget to print something simply because you’re not home. This printer does come with three months of free ink and the same program also monitors your ink levels for you so you never have to worry about running out of ink. To note, I would not recommend this for businesses or anyone who prints a lot. This particular model is definitely for those use a printer on occasion not for 100’s of prints a day.
The only con I have is that there is currently a software issue on printing PDF files. This is a disadvantage because most documents are PDF. Even documents directly soured from HP site are PDF and can’t be printed with my printer. It is a known issue and has yet to be given an ETA on when it’ll be resolved. It’s an extra step to correctly convert the document and make sure it prints correctly.

Perfect for a home office.
This is the printer I did not know I needed. I have a home office so I had a small printer and upgraded to this one. It works more similar to the large printer in office. I can now add the pages I want to scan for faxing or printing purposes and it is so easy. Previously I had to scan each page but with this one I can scan the 4 to 5 pages I need. The ink is not too expensive and it doesn't run out fast. I have printed out colorful picture and they come out vibrant which will be perfect for the kids projects when school begins. The set up was extremely easy and offers hp+ an option for people who use the printer often and want to take the guessing out of ordering ink. I am happy with the ease of everything from start up to actual production.

It is working for me. I don't use it enough this summer because work is minimal. I guess it is okay. It prints okay and fast, the ink is okay.
This is all I can say now

Quick Setup & Ease of Use
June 16, 2024 8:00 am.
I am delighted with my HP DeskJet 4255e printer. The unboxing and setup of this printer was super easy. This printer came with ink, so all you need is paper and a wi-fi connection to get started printing. I was able to complete setup using my smart phone, no desktop or laptop necessary!

Capable Of Handling Most Home Printing Jobs
It was super-easy to set it up. Printed right off the bat and very quickly. Colors are beautiful and perfect. My husband loves his new printer for his workshop.

Office must-have!
I was extremely excited to try the HP deskjet 4255e printer and I was not disappointed. The App makes set up a breeze, I easy made new a profile and it started walking me through set-up process , which took less than 5 mins total. The ink replacement is exciting so I don't have to remember and can use that extra time for work productivity.

All in one printing at home
The HP DeskJet 4255e All-in-One Printer has been a great addition to my home office. It’s compact and fits nicely on my desk, and it handles printing, scanning, and copying without any issues. Setting it up was simple, especially with the help of the HP Smart app, which guided me through the process. The only downside is that the ink can be expensive, and it’s a bit slow when printing large batches. Overall, though, it’s a solid, affordable option for everyday home use.

Good for Light Printing Tasks
Being in the field of education for longer than I care to admit, I have had plenty of experience dealing with many different types of printers. I bring that knowledge to give an honest review of the HP DeskJet 4255e All-in-One Printer.
Setup was simple because it only requires one plug. Downloading the app and having my laptop recognize the device took a while. That being said, once the device is recognized, it is easy to print.
When it comes to design, it's a bit tricky to access the internals because there's only a small opening in the front. This could be a problem for people with larger hands, as the front opening is the only way to replace ink cartridges (which you'll need to do often if you print regularly) or deal with paper jams. Plus, the printer needs to be on to access the ink cartridges. There's only a rear paper feeder with a small 60-page capacity, so you'll be adding sheets frequently. And there's no menu on the printer itself; you'll have to use your PC or mobile device for settings and maintenance tasks.
The ink cartridges have a low yield and need frequent replacement. Accessing them is a hassle, as you can only reach them through a narrow front door. The same goes for the sheet rollers - you can only access them through the front door, with no other access points on the printer. You'll also be refilling the paper tray often since it only holds 60 sheets.
The printer is compatible with the HP Smart app, which lets you order ink, manage your ink subscription, access printables, send mobile faxes (with a paid HP+ subscription), scan documents with your device's camera, initiate scans, and perform maintenance tasks. The ink cartridges are small, so get ready to change them frequently. You get three months of ink included with the printer through HP's subscription service, HP Instant Ink. But once you start using this service, you can't use cartridges from third-party manufacturers.
Overall, this printer is fine for light home use. But as an educator, I need something more robust.

Great Upgrade
We have had an HP printer of some sort for probably the last two decades. They’re reliable little workhorses that are great for families or at-home work that requires small batch or occasional printing. I love the feed tray on top. It gives big office copier vibes! The scanner works well too. The print quality is great. My only complaint is that wireless printing can be a pain. Even with the HP app, the printer doesn’t always connect with the device I’m trying to print from (and I know it’s not an internet issue). I’m hoping we get it figured out soon, but I’ve usually been able to find a work around to get what I needed printed.

Easiest installation ever!
I actually had to install this printer under duress. My old printer wasn't working anymore and this one came right on time. My bank needed me to sign a document and it was right around closing time. I had to hurry up, open the box and get this printer installed ASAP. I couldn't believe how quick and easy the installation was. It connected to the wifi so easily. It was definitely the best installation experience I've ever had. The print quality is great. It prints so fast, even in color. Two-sided printing was a little trickier and that was disappointing. I would prefer automatic double sided printing but you need to sit by the machine while it prints the first side and then feed the paper back into the printer to print the other side. I wasted a lot of paper not understanding how to do this at first. The 3 months of free ink and paper is a really nice perk and the subscription that lets the printer communicate with HP to send paper and/or ink when it's needed it's also really great. It's cost effective too. I prefer paying a membership for $6/mo instead of having to shell out over $50 when I need ink. Overall a great product and super happy with it.

Nice print quality
I have been truly enjoying my new HP 4255e printer. It prints great quality pictures and documents. I love the copier capabilities as well. I work at a school and sometimes need to prepare materials for meetings and I can get it done quickly with my new printer. I recommend it to anyone looking for a high quality printer.

Great Printer!
I have used this printer for a little over a week. I like the compact size of it, it prints in both black and white and color, and it has the ability to copy and scan documents. However, I do not like that I had to download an app on my phone and computer to set up and print documents. Also, it prints fairly slow compared to other printers. However, I do like the size of the printer and the capabilities that a small printer like this can do. Overall, I do recommend this printer to others.

Simple and efficient
Right out of the box this printer was light enough to offload it anywhere in the house with a simple wifi set up and app down load your ready to go.
I would recommend this printer to any one with a basic need for a cordless straight forward easy to use printer. With an additional 3 months of ink provided and a secondary subscription I will never have the problem of running out, which is fantastic for any at home small business or college student.

The Professional Sidekick You Need!
This printer was exactly what I was looking for and will now help increase my productivity not only for the work I do professionally but also the work I do personally as an MA student! It was very easy to set up so if you're not the most tech savvy person, don't worry! The directions are easy to follow and will have you up and running in no time! I love the wifi capability on this printer which allowed me to conveniently print wirelessly through the hp app from my iPhone while I lounged on the couch, saving me a trip to grab my laptop just to print a document. The pages printed pretty quickly and quietly. I was also able to scan some money orders for my mom before she mailed them out so that she'd be able to keep a record of them and photocopied my company credit card so that I can lock the card up and carry the copy in my purse for quick online purchases. All in all I give this printer a 10/10 and think you will also be pleased with the capabilities in this compact device!

Copy, scan, and mobile printing
My first use of the HP DeskJet 4255e was to make some copies. Since the printer/copier/scanner is only plugged in when needed, it took multiple tries to plug it in and print because the plug kept falling out, which resulted in an annoying paper jam. Later on, with more patience and using the HP app for help, was able to clear the jam myself and finish making the copies. I like the mobile printing function. After downloading the HP app, documents can be sent to the printer while I’m out and about.
