I've used and owned many printers over the past 40 years, so I am excited to review the HP OfficeJet Pro 9135e all-in-one printer.
Setup: The included Quick Start Guide makes it very easy to set up the printer. Simply un-box the machine, remove any shipping tape, and plug it in. The printer's Control Panel walks you through the setup. I downloaded the HP Smart app from the Mac App Store and configured other features and shortcuts.
Once the printer was connected to my home network, I was able to find it with all of my other computer and mobile devices using WiFi.
Printing: The print quality is outstanding. The text is very crisp and the colors are vivid. Print speed is fast, especially when printing two-sided pages. Having two paper trays is quite nice and useful. Letter-size paper is loaded into the bottom tray, and envelopes are loaded in the top tray.
Scanning: Scanning can be a bit challenging on most printers, and this one is not perfect. I could not see where to position a page/photo correctly on the glass flatbed. It took a couple of attempts to get it right. Then I noticed an indented corner symbol in the upper right corner. The document sheet feeder works great for scanning multiple documents.
On the Control Panel, under Scan, there's an option to Scan to Computer. This gives me instructions to print out a setup page. I finally found in the HP User Guide that the MacOS is not supported through this feature on the Control Panel.
I was able to scan easily with Adobe Acrobat and the HP Smart app. Scanning a photo with the HP Smart app is a bit challenging. It doesn't auto-detect photos smaller than letter size, even though that option is selected. Interestedly it did display the correct crop area, but outside the image on the next step of scanning.
Connection: Besides connecting to WiFi, there's a USB port on the front of the computer. On the rear of the printer, you can see Phone-In, Phone-Out, USB, and Ethernet ports. I didn't understand why the USB port was taped over with a confusing label. I read in the HP User Guide to not set up the printer via USB. Use WiFi or Network, then remove the label for USB.
Instant Ink Cartridge Subscription: Let's see how useful and economical this becomes. My other printers have refillable ink tanks.
Overall, I am impressed with the speed and quality of the printer. I print many designs for client approval. They will be impressed too.
