I bought this, on the basis of price and reviews, to replace an old HP 3070A all-in-one printer and it does seem to be good value for money. The print quality is good and I don't think the replacement ink cartridges are too expensive (non-HP cartridges are available at a lower price but I don't know yet how well they work). It's not a very fast printer, but that isn't a problem for me. To set it up you have to use the HP Smart app, and of course my phone was too old to support the operating system required to download the app! Luckily I have a newer iPad so I was able to download the app onto it and use this to set up the printer. Once the app was installed the set-up was fairly straightforward, although I don't know what personal information HP now hold as a result of me downloading the app. Once the printer was on my wifi network it was quite simple to connect it to my non-Apple laptop, which is the device I usually print from. I don't know how someone without a smartphone and some technical ability would get on. Another point - it's not clear from all the photos, but unlike the HP 3070A, the paper is fed from the back of the machine, not the front, and the feed tray sticks up above the top of the printer, so the overall height is more than I thought it would be. My printer sits between two shelves and this one only just fits, whereas the 3070A fitted easily. However, it's doing what I need it to do, and it wasn't expensive, so I'm quite happy with it.

Just too difficult for the average user to connect to a lap top or other remote equipment. Usually a new printer comes with a CD and can easily be connected. This printer needs someone with a great deal of knowledge to connect. I tried but in the end had to take it to a computer expert who admitted it took him 2 hours. Why make it so complicated?, I have had HP printers in the past without any problems.

Print quality seems very good. Start up colour cartridge will only last a couple of days so you'll have to buy one almost straight away. I'm using it with an oldish HP Pavilion desk top and the printer will not print images I've stored in documents(won't give me the print option). It's possible that this is something to do with the PC but I'm not sure. It took it a few goes to recognise the set up software but downloading this was easy if you stick to the instructions. When printing it's a bit noisy. Works very well with Word - quick and clear. Seems to be fair value.

My HP DeskJet 2710 prints brilliantly. It took a while to set-up, but the instructions were easy enough to follow. The free two month Instant Ink offer still hasn't been confirmed, but I'm in touch with HP about it now.

I got the printer working quite quickly but the instructions weren't that good and I had to use a few "leaps of faith" based on experience with other printers. For example it only worked when I connected it with a cable; the cable was supplied in the box, but none of the advice actually said to plug it in. It is now working well to print and scan over the cabled connection. I can print to it wirelessly from my phone too, which is great. Weirdly when I take the cable out, I cannot print to it wirelessly from my laptop. The ink seems to be very expensive, but I expected that.
