HP OfficeJet Pro 9015 All-in-One Wireless Color Printer, with Smart Home Office Productivity, HP Instant Ink, Works with Alexa (1KR42A)

The HP OfficeJet Pro 9015 is a refreshing multi-function printer that will outperform many printers in this category. I have always purchased HP Office Jet multi-function printers over the years and each time the technology and overall quality seem to improve. The 9015 model was a beauty straight out of the box with the smooth edges and nice color display. I was able to put it all together in less than 10 minutes due to setting up wireless connections and verification of joining their Instant Ink program that is optional and you get four months free for signing up for the monthly program. It gives you the option to choose how many pages you think you will print in a month and it lets unused pages roll over in the next month to sometimes save you some money. The printer is fast and quieter than prior models while it produces up 22 pages per minute and has an automatic two-sided scan and copy features. The document feeder on this new model can handle up to 35 pages of documents at a time. I put the automatic feeder to the test and used only 15 pages and expected it to jam but it worked perfectly.One of the best aspects of this printer is that it works with the HP smart app which I put on my phones and tablets along with laptops to be able to print remotely and keep up on the latest ink levels in case one is running low. The company has keyed in on using smart tasks to simplify common tasks while using Google Drive, quick books along with voice-enabled smart devices such as Alexa and Google Assistant. Another positive change is the focus on WIFI security with the printer and has even added basic encryption along with other methods to minimize the damage of private data being hacked. The company also states that it has “Self-healing WIFI” which works behind the scenes to make sure that your printer stays connected to your password-protected WIFI network. I was pleased to be able to try out the feature since I run 2 different WIFI networks for home and business use. I have not had any connectivity issues with the printer since I purchased it. It is refreshing because in the past my printer would have WIFI access but seemed to have issues many times or there was an unreasonable wait time for everything to process. I now can relax when I go to start printing many items because the printer is online and works from all of my devices at home through the HP print app.Overall, I am pleased with the versatility and cutting-edge technology this printer provides. I find that this was an economical choice for a high-quality machine and a better way for me to manage the printing costs for my business. I am also glad I can use the HP app to integrate with other apps for keeping my receipts together or printing important appointment or meeting details. I appreciate the fact that I have the flexibility to store items on a device or in a cloud service and then print them efficiently and quickly with the HP OfficeJet Pro 9015.

This was an Amazon purchase to replace an HP 6970 that was only 15 months old. While disappointed that it didn't last longer when I have one at home that is a year older and still running fine, I took a chance on this HP 9015 after reading many other reviews and researching various makes and models. The features of this unit were a better fit within our small business model. Several features that are "cloud based" I have not tried or experienced yet. If they work as well as the rest of this then it to me has to be one of the best MFP devices on the market. I do highly suggest that everyone sign up for an ink replenishment plan. You will have to decide between the HP or Amazon Dash based upon your specific needs as each has their own pros and cons. Please bear in mind that my comments are with a little over a month of usage at this point, but so far, I am very impressed.Pros:o New Inkjet cartridge style. Sounds silly but they seem more robust and suited for heavy office style usage rather than the traditional small "cube" style cartridges of the past.o Clear and clean edges to fonts/lettering as well as sharp picture reproduction.o Easy WiFi setup and use especially print from phone utilizing the HP app.o Machine email address, very useful for late night or weekend orders that come in. I simply forward these directly to the HP9015 at the office and the employees at the store can immediately see the email or will see it the next morning as they come in. Very helpful to not disrupt family time for me.o Easy to use touchscreen panel on the face of the unit.o A true two-sided copy/scan capability. Simply load your documents ONCE in the top tray, select Two sided document and the let the unit handle the rest. No more flipping or then trying to match up sheets front/back when handling multiple pieces of documents.Cons:o At roughly 20" deep (with paper catcher extended) and 18" across, it does take up a good chunk of real estate on my desk. Not an issue if you have a dedicated space for it to reside, say a small table or filing cabinet. Just not a luxury that I have in my office. So really it is more of a personal issue than a fault of the unit. For everything that it does and is capable of, I can easily justify the space.o Single tray with no bypass for feeding say a single sheet of card-stock or an envelope.
