This compact wireless printer with automatic document feeder and the most user-friendly printing app allows for effortless printing, scanning, and copying. From labels to recipes, you will enjoy a seamless printing experience from the world's leading printer manufacturer.
Printers with dynamic security feature. Some HP printers are designed for use only with cartridges that contain new or reused chips or electronic circuits from HP. These printers use dynamic security measures to block cartridges with a non-HP chip or a non-HP electronic circuit. Regular firmware updates maintain the effectiveness of these measures and block cartridges that previously worked. Reused HP chips and electronic circuits from HP allow the use of reused, remanufactured, and refilled cartridges.
This is an HP+ capable printer. Select HP+ during product setup to take advantage of the benefits. HP+ requires an HP account, a continuous internet connection, and the exclusive use of original HP cartridges throughout the printer's lifespan.
