HP ENVY Inspire 7220e All-in-One Wireless Colour Printer | 6 months free Instant Ink limited time only | White | 2-sided printing | Touchscreen | Self-healing Wi-Fi

Our very old HP Envy finally died. In a brief moment of madness I decided to replace it with a Canon Pixma. This was a terrible experience. The install software wouldn't run on Windows 11 on an ARM-based laptop. Then it took hours to establish a connection to the wifi, and then the connection sporadically dropped. And the machine refused to feed one sheet of paper at a time, preferring instead to pull through between 5-10 pages!So we returned this item and once again bought an HP. We're delighted with the Envy Inspire 7220e. The software worked like a dream. Wifi setup and connectivity was totally painless and done in about 2 minutes. And since then, all our devices (mobiles, laptops, desktops) are able to print to the machine reliably and without issue.The printer is well-built, high quality, fast, quiet, and looks fantastic.

Brilliant printer, very smart solid looking, prints gorgeous colour images. Easy to use and the touchscreen is excellent. Worked straight out of the box as I used the app and it just linked itself up to the WiFi. Not noisy, holds plenty of paper and quite fast. Resolution of images is excellent. This is my fifth HP printer and the bavk up help if you have an issue is great especially when you call direct don’t use chat which is sloooooow.

So, my last HP all in one printer coughed, spluttered and expired. HP seem to make good ones in my experience, so after looking around at their offerings and other makes, I chose this one. It was delivered promptly by Amazon and installation was a breeze. The footprint (if space is at a premium) is good, there's no back tray to feed paper from, it's a front loader, which is good. It's somewhat taller than my previous one though. But as an office item, it looks good and has a touch screen, so you can work it with or without using your computer. It'll also print remotely from other devices you may use, such as your 'phone.Printing is pretty quiet and quick and the results are fine. It uses a two cartridge system, one black, the other containing the usual other colours. My last one took four individual cartridges.So, whilst mentioning cartridges, it's worth saying that most home printers are relatively cheap and the suppliers endeavour to make money on ink supplies and HP are no different there. You can nearly spend as much as the printer itself replenishing the cartridges! HP have sought to soften the blow by offering "HP Instant Ink". A service that, if you sign up to it, as I understand it monitors your ink usage and sends you ink cartridges automatically as you need. There's an initial free period when you buy a printer after which you pay. But it's optional, so you can decide whether you want to go down that route. I'd also check the conditions. I'm no expert!So, to summarise, I'm happy with it.

-- The 3-months free ink offer is only until 30 april 23, after which you get 1-month free plus the 6-month that comes with the printer. My referral code 1cqb2rYou need to use the above referral code to get the extra one month.I had read reviews on different forums on what is the best HP printer for photos. Although I do not print photos, I subscribe to printer inks on my previous HP printer. So I reckoned if my cost per page is the same, why not invest in a good printer. I have kids and with photo paper being so cheap, its always good to print these photos to keep on desks.Secondly some of the cheap HP printers do not accept high GSM/thicker paper, the cheaper photo paper I have noticed are higher GSM/thicker. And anyway I like the option to run both low GSM and high GSM paper in my printer so I can buy whatever photo paper is cheapestI was very hesitant before buying this printer- there were mixed reviews and the price was too good to be true with free ink for 6 months. But I went ahead for 2 reasons, first is free inks and second is that this printer was the recommended HP printer for good quality photos. Compared to my earlier HP printer, my wife commented the photos looked great on this printer.Set up of printer-set up was super easy with my phone took me no longer than 10 min. We as a family use Linux, iPhone, mac and windows computers and I could easily set up the printer on all operating systems. For linux we needed to download hp drivers.Printer inkPrinter comes with ink one black and white and one colour. I installed them and have to say they get used to pretty quickly. They cost around £30/£34 colour/black.Free ink hp +Subscribed for free 6 months ink I took the 700 pages plan not because I need it but because it's free anyway :D had a code which gave me an extra 3 months free so now I have 9 months of ink. You can use my code above for an extra 1-3 months or free ink for you :) Although initially did not like the idea of subscription when I need to pay I will downgrade to 99 p or £2.99 plan depending on usage. I only normally need it for the Amazon return, and the then and now page I need to print for something else. Printing quality is great compared to other printers including the photo quality.I would say that the hp plan is probably cheaper as the cheaper plan would be £12 a year for 10 pages a month that can roll over for up to 3 months, and the second one up is £2.99 a month with 50 pages a month that can roll over for 3 months. £36 a year ink isnt bad I think.Bear in mind that they send ink in 7 to 10 business days , so I used the free ink and subscribed straight away until I get the new ink. You have 7 days to subscribe to hp instank ink so you can wait a few days to make sure you use your ink as subscription starts on day to subscribe despite hp sending you the ink after 10 days.Hp appSuper easy to use, shows cartridge left, subscription, you can print etc. Really like it.Size of printerThe only thing I wish was that it was slightly smaller - it's not the biggest printer but I believe a few cm larger than the average printer due to the print tray at the bottom that does not close. The only reason I downgraded a star.Colour and sound -It lights up and makes a sound/ noise when it prints- some reviews complained about it I really like it :) but then again the printer is not in my bedroom.Hope you like this printer- as much as I do and this review was helpful :)
