piece of crap. I hate it.

published

Every day I go to print, i have no idea whether it will print or not. Somedays yes, usually no. The connectivity with the computer changes every day. It will scan to my computer then then when I go to print, it says cannot connect to printer. Some days it says there is no driver. I HATE THIS PRINTER.

Does everything except print

published

Continually get error messages when printing. But no explanation what the error is, so cannot even begin to to resolve it or figure out what the problem is. Never know when it's gonna happen so can't trust this machine. Scanning is fine.

HP 2723 Printer - Brought to replace a ten yr old HP f4200 deskjet. The set up is a nightmare, the app is a nightmare. The scanner isn't half as good as its ten year old equivalent. I spent the best part of three months communicating with HP to try and resolve my issues. I have wasted hours and hours and hours of my time on this piece of sh!t. The Hp reply can be summarized as "oh yeah the scanner is rubbish, you shouldn't have brought that one, you can't have your money back" I have three HP printers and large plotters and have been a loyal HP fan for years, massively disappointed in this product and HP's customer service.... next action, copy this review and paste EVERYWHERE

Poor design, poor quality and the opposite of easy to use

published

A cheap printer made deliberately difficult and clunky to use. From the weak paper loading style to the locked in interface (you literally can't use it unless you have a Microsoft account) it's by far the worst printer I've ever used and that's including my original first ever printer back in 1996.
This is another reason why I'm turning further away from Microsoft. What should a simple easy to use budget printer is instead a complex control mechanism with zero user interface and I honestly don't have time for that.

Purchased for $50.

absolute trash

published

DO NOT BUY, enough said. Can not even be bothered to find my invoice etc.
Brought cheap, but almost useless.

It print one page and stops, one has to press a button to resume.
Very hard to scan anything, installed HP app and requires me to set up account to use it.
It's 2020 and I need to set up account to use that slow cloud service to scan?

Not worth it

published

Cheap price, but still not worth it. Sometimes it takes about an hour to connect to the computer to print one page, most times it just does not connect at all.

No longer supported by HP software, won't connect to scan, not compatible with 5G wireless

published

The HP Smart software does not recognise the printer on the network and will allow printing but not scanning. Requires extensive troubleshooting that is too difficult for lay people. Avoid.

Worst printer ever

published

Does not come with software disc. Hard to find and install off internet and the scanning software is a nightmare. Not worth $1. The two ink cartridges capacity is a joke and cost more than the printer. More ccp crap.

Good little printer with difficulties.

Working out how to use this printer can be a little difficult with many frustrating information pages printed. However, once you work out what’s going on is a reliable, good quality printer.

Great for a Wireless Printer

published

Purchased this printer recently on sale. I was actually surprised how easy it was to set up. It's great not having a multitude of cords and now my daughter can print wirelessly from her room for her home school. It is also handy that we can print from our smart phones.

Purchased in at Kmart for $39.
