HP 6700 Printer Review

Have you ever wanted to print directly from your smartphone or tablet, but didn't know how? The HP OfficeJet 6700 is a color inkjet all-in-one printer that includes HP ePrint technology to allow printing from almost any device. It includes wired and wireless networking right out of the box, and it has fast ISO-rated speeds of up to 16 pages per minute in black and 9 pages per minute in color. Buyers can keep high printer ink costs at bay with inexpensive HP 6700 ink.

Not only can the 6700 receive print jobs from mobile devices, including Apple's iOS devices, but it can also receive jobs over the internet. This allows users to send tasks remotely from just about anywhere. You can send a document from work and have it printed and ready when you get home, for example. The unit has a touch-screen control panel that makes it very easy and fun to use.

Reducing waste is a big part of the 6700's design. There is less wasted printer ink than the typical inkjet, in part because of the use of 4 separate HP 6700 ink cartridges. By separating the colors, waste is reduced, as users only replace the empty OfficeJet 6700 ink cartridges, instead of one bundle. OfficeJet 6700 ink is also quite inexpensive, and buyers can find compatible HP 6700 ink at lower prices.

The 6700 received the Editor's Choice award from PC Magazine, and the editors praised its net-enabled printing, duplexing, and its excellent document feeder as its best features. They found the single paper tray somewhat limiting, however.

Overall, the HP 6700 includes almost every feature a user could imagine, with the only missing function being faxing. Otherwise, its ePrint technology makes it drop dead simple to print from almost any device, and from almost any location.
