DeskJet 2827e Wireless All-in-One Color Inkjet Printer, Scanner, Copier, Best-for-Home, 3 Month Instant Ink Trial Included, AI-Enabled (6W7F5A)

Perfect affordable printer for at home use! It was super easy to set up. HP support has a video on their YouTube channel of how to set it up, and it was really straight forward. After you take off the tape and plastic liners, it has you download the HP app and the app guides you through setting up the WiFi, paper, & ink. Overall from unboxing to printing my first sheet, it probably took about 15-20 minutes. Setting up my WiFi and connecting to my phone was a breeze. I don’t have a computer so I was worried about finding a printer that could easily print from my phone, but this was very simple and easy to do. I was able to print documents directly from my files, as well as photos from my photo app. It takes a little less than 30 seconds per sheet, which isn’t bad for an at home printer, but could be slightly irritating if you’re printing over 50 pages at a time. The ink is great, prints pretty true to color. The black is saturated, and the colored ink is slightly less vibrant but that’s not an issue for me personally. I added a photo of what it looks like printing via the HP app, as well as the printed page afterwards. As you can see, the black is nice and saturated, the red is slightly less saturated but nothing bad, and it prints very accurately. This is perfect for my homeschooling needs, & for less than $40 I’m very happy with it. Pros : - printer and copy machine in one - comes with ink both black and colored - black ink is nice and saturated - an additional 3 month free trial to their ink subscription - after the trial the ink subscription isn’t very expensive either which is great. - 1 year warranty included - affordable printer (bought on sale for $35) - set up took less than 20 minutes start to finish - prints fast enough for at home use - can print straight from my phone, either from files or photo library Cons : - colored ink is slightly dull, but not too bad as long as you’re not printing actual photos. - the print speed could be an issue for you if you’re printing over 50 pages at a time

This HP DeskJet 2827e is amazing! Setup was simple, and I was printing in no time. The wireless connection is solid and stays connected without dropping. Print speed is great for everyday use, and the output is crisp and professional looking. I print everything from school papers to family photos, and this printer handles it all. It’s lightweight, quiet, and easy to use even for beginners. The HP Smart app makes printing remotely so convenient. Worth every penny—highly recommend this printer if you want quality and convenience!

I replaced a more expensive HP printer with this no frills, inexpensive HP 2827e printer. I loved the features and print quality of the expensive one, but it only lasted 22 months. I decided I don’t do enough printing to splurge a second time. As far as setup, I decided not to use a WiFi connection. I have it hooked up to my PC with a USB cable (a 6-foot 2.0 USB-A to USB-B). A USB cable is not included in the package, so I had to buy one separately. I have heard too many people complain about problems with wireless and I wanted to keep things as simple as possible. I did install the HP Smart App. I was pleased that during setup with the USB cable, I was never asked if I wanted to sign up for the Instant Ink subscription program, and I wasn’t pressured into establishing an account. There are no helpful instructions that come with this printer. No user manual. I had to search “how to” videos on the Internet just to figure out how to get adhesive tape (put on for packaging) off the printer and remove everything that needed to be removed from the interior, like a piece of cardboard. I admit I’m not tech savvy or intuitive or good at deciphering picture diagrams, so most people might not have any trouble at all, but I did. Even opening the plastic output tray door was a challenge. The door was tightly shut and required a hefty tug to open. I was sure I was going to crack it in two. The plastic feels flimsy. I also had to search the Internet for setup instructions. Most of the online how-tos assumed setup would be with WiFi, not a cable, so I ended up calling HP customer support and asking them to walk me through it. I was able to quickly get through to a human, which was a plus even though there was a slight language barrier. So, for me, setup was not a breeze, but it was manageable. As far as print quality, I would say it’s acceptable but not the best. Most of my printing is done in black only, and the black is not as sharp and crisp as I would like. As far as features, this printer is very basic. I think it will accomplish everything a more expensive printer will, but some things will have to be done manually. This means some jobs may take a bit longer and require a little more creativity. I do not do a whole lot of printing, so I can deal with that. I found the ink cartridges easy to install. And I was told in the question-and-answer box that I will be able to print in single cartridge mode, which means I will only have to buy black ink. Other pluses are that the printer is compact, lightweight (7.55 lbs.), is white (doesn’t show dust like black does), and is attractive. Bottom line, this printer is relatively inexpensive, functional and doesn’t take up a lot of space. It prints. It scans. It copies. If it conks out in a year or two, I won’t be devastated.

Easy setup,works great but uses ink cartridges pretty quickly other than that it’s good product

Very good printer, easy to set up. Takes up minimal space. Comes with own wifi 3 different size paper size acceptable which printer recognize on its own, warns when ink is running low, warns when jam, plus it come VPN security Only issue is it prints slow when printing colored graphics and very rare it prints item half way. This happens sometimes when too much documents are being printed at once.. But it's a great buy no doubt.

I used envy 4520 before this, and it worked great for 10+years and last 3 years heavy abuse, anyways, this new model 2800 series are all trash and contact complains of connection issues in other users as well I bought this 4 weeks ago and started giving up midway, worked 1 day, next day disconnects,

Great value @ $50. Easy set up; works perfectly via wireless. Ink program (3months free) is great; I print limited so @ less than $3 per month great deal. Print quality great. Online account is nice too. Recommend

I’m not a tech guy at all but even I found this printer easy to set up make sure your set up for Bluetooth and follow the setup instructions which are very straightforward,heck ,if I can do it as a 65 year old stroke survivor ,anyone can! And in closing this puppy responds and prints in no time

Took awhile to set it up but once done works fine. The previous HP model had an app to get it started, this one the app is signing onto the internet app bit of a pain. They took simple and made it more complicated

Make sure your OS is 10 or newer. Works perfectly with my wife's phone but not with her old laptop running Windows 8

This was no "easy set up" for me. I (for some reason) had an Ethernet connection versus WiFi...so had to resolve that first. Once I finally got WiFi connected, the rest of the set up wasn't too bad...until I attempted to "add a printer" to my computer and was asked for a PIN number. Online instructions were I could find it within the documentation that came with the printer.....nope! What's not mentioned anywhere is that once the printer is set up, a page will print with a PIN number. It actually took me about 2 hrs to set this up after finally finding all the passwords, PINs, etc. that I needed. I've had nothing but HP printers and have never had problems before. But I'm not sure I would buy a wireless one again. HP should look into evolving with just a small USB that you plug in...and be ready to print. If I can do that with a mouse and a keyboard, I think it would be great to do that with a printer as well. HP also need revised documentation; I understand that it may be quite obvious to the people creating the documentation but there are steps missing. Having said all that, I still believe HP products are worth it. UPDATE: Have realized now that you cannot turn the printer off and/or it will not automatically shut off unless you disconnect it from the WiFi and nowhere does it say it will automatically reconnect when turned it back on or if you have to re-enter a password everytime. Needless to say I am no longer enamored with this HP product.
