Thats why I have a Canon wireless printer. All the devices in my house except my nokia cellphone can print to it, and I can get Chinese replacement ink cartridges for $3.50 each and they last much longer than the HP ones.

I wouldn't invest in the HP unless you own multiple crippled devices without normal printing capability. ]]>Jul 5th 2010 9:12AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/05/hp-photosmart-d110a-eprint-printer-earns-5-star-reviews-despite/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/05/hp-photosmart-d110a-eprint-printer-earns-5-star-reviews-despite/Jul 5th 2010 9:38AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/05/hp-photosmart-d110a-eprint-printer-earns-5-star-reviews-despite/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/05/hp-photosmart-d110a-eprint-printer-earns-5-star-reviews-despite/Jul 5th 2010 3:36PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/05/hp-photosmart-d110a-eprint-printer-earns-5-star-reviews-despite/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/05/hp-photosmart-d110a-eprint-printer-earns-5-star-reviews-despite/Jul 5th 2010 6:42PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/05/hp-photosmart-d110a-eprint-printer-earns-5-star-reviews-despite/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/05/hp-photosmart-d110a-eprint-printer-earns-5-star-reviews-despite/
Couple months later went to scan something, it says "No HP devices detected". Great, a printer/scanner that can't print and can't copy!

Avoid HP printers!

Although, if they get WebOS on it so I can check my email from it.. its gonna be hard to fight the temptation to get a new one.]]>Jul 5th 2010 7:09PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/05/hp-photosmart-d110a-eprint-printer-earns-5-star-reviews-despite/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/05/hp-photosmart-d110a-eprint-printer-earns-5-star-reviews-despite/
I have an Officejet 6500 Wireless, haven't had any problems in the past year. Use it pretty constantly; it's a work machine, so I print probably 20-30 pages per day on it, mixed b/w and color.

YMMV, I guess.

Thats the other thing that sucks about HP. My laser printer simply stopped working at the Vista/W7 release, as they fail to release updated drivers.

How much work would it really be?

But alas, thats how they sell more printers as those laser printers would otherwise last decades. ]]>Jul 5th 2010 9:14AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/05/hp-photosmart-d110a-eprint-printer-earns-5-star-reviews-despite/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/05/hp-photosmart-d110a-eprint-printer-earns-5-star-reviews-despite/Jul 5th 2010 6:42AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/05/hp-photosmart-d110a-eprint-printer-earns-5-star-reviews-despite/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/05/hp-photosmart-d110a-eprint-printer-earns-5-star-reviews-despite/
Or, this is just a feature that most people don't care about and won't use.

I realize it's odd that a printer has the word "ePrint" in its name and then can't ePrint, but honestly, I had never heard of "ePrinting" until right now and I can't see how I'd ever use it. If I'm already in the room with my printer, why would I need to print a PDF from my cell phone? I'm the kind of guy that has like eight wireless PDF-capable devices with me at any given time, and wireless printers to print from them, and even still, I just can't see when I'd use this. If I'm in the room with my printer, then I've got my computer with me and at most one room away. (This is true whether I'm at home or at work.)

If the idea of this is that you can email something to the printer from anywhere, print it, then pick it up later... I'm sorry but I just don't see the point of that. I've never had the need to print something but not actually have it after printing it. If I need to print something, I need it right away, meaning if I'm out, I'm just gonna go to Kinkos or something.

In fact, *that's* something I could see being useful - emailing an attachment from a cell phone to any Kinkos and printing it wherever you happen to be. But I'm pretty sure you can actually do that with a lot of smartphones as it is, with no special software or printers.

I have a smartphone, I would never even think about printing anything from it. I have several PC's at home. Works fine to print from the one connected to the printer(s).

"ePrinting" does not seem to be the same as "wireless printing".

I have an HP wireless printer right now that says nothing anywhere about supporting "ePrint".

I have, as many of us no doubt do, personal experience w/HP, a nd let's just say it wasn't good.

i.e. I moved to tropical climes (thanks MS) in Jan '09, and I brought two boxes with me - a dual Xeon Intellistation and an HP desktop that I had made into a HTPC.

Cutting to the chase, my IBM WS is of 2006 vintage and has been running day in/day out since I bought it, and I haven't had to spend even a penny on repair. The HP desktop died three weeks after the warranty ran out. When I opened it up there was rust everywhere...

Dell's are certainly no better, but how on earth can America's number one and two PC makers build absolute junk?

P.S. I am writing this post on my Intellistation...]]>Jul 5th 2010 7:06AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/05/hp-photosmart-d110a-eprint-printer-earns-5-star-reviews-despite/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/05/hp-photosmart-d110a-eprint-printer-earns-5-star-reviews-despite/
You have to remember that HP and Dell are HUGE companies.

They have product lines that range from the cheapest crap available to reach the lowest markets to ultra-premium almost boutique lines.

Even the warranty and customer service experience isn't uniform, as large business "gold" accounts and the alienware and XPS lines get pampered whereas a little netbook warranty will be farmed out to their india helplessdesk to save money.]]>Jul 5th 2010 9:17AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/05/hp-photosmart-d110a-eprint-printer-earns-5-star-reviews-despite/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/05/hp-photosmart-d110a-eprint-printer-earns-5-star-reviews-despite/When I contacted HP (multiple times) about the feature "coming soon" print out I got and asked why it wasn't available the day they started selling the printer, they were unapologetic, uncaring & generally didn't give a shit.
I posted a 1 star review on amazon about the feature not there and as far as I can tell mine is the only one star review on this printer.
HP could stop the growing criticism by releasing the feature NOW but we all know they won't.
HP will do what it always does stick their collective heads in the sand and pretend that bad press is good press.
This is my first HP printer and most probably will be my last.
