    App is great, but color bleeding problem
    3 Stars
    App is great, but color bleeding problem
    Setup was quick and easy with my phone took less than 10 min. The app looks stylish and is easy to use. The only issue is the original test pages for printing came out with color bleeding along the right side of the page. Searched and couldn’t find anything in the app or the printer menus to correct the issue. Couldn’t find a color correction/calibration or a clean up in any setting or referenced in any of the manuals. After using an air duster and printing couple more test prints, it has gotten better but still shows ink lines on the right side.Scan and copy functions work as expected and with the app it was very easy to send scans via email. The attached images are scanned as examples for reference. Scanned images come out lighter than expected but are good enough for text and can be sent as pdf straight from the app.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Most compact multi function color laser printer I’ve seen!
    Reviewed in the United States on August 3, 2019
    The Good:
    -Great print quality
    -Compact design
    -Fast printing
    -Easy set up
    -Multi function (scanner, copier)
    -Quiet operation
    -Laser and not ink jet
    -HP IOS app is very well laid out
    -Good value

    The Bad:
    -Laser toner cartridges are a bit expensive but all manufacturers are like that

    The Bottom Line:
    I’ve been using this printer for the last few weeks and this thing is great. I’ve printed hundreds of pages and the print quality is very good. The set up was very easy as you just connect to your WiFi and you’re pretty much ready to go. The printer itself is quite compact for a multifunction color laser printer. I will never go back to ink jet printers, the ink dries out too easily and the cartridges are expensive for how many pages. The laser toner cartridges for this printer are not cheap either but at least you get more pages (all printer laser toner is expensive). Overall I would recommend this HP laser color printer for its performance and value.
