HP Envy 5644 e-All-in-One Ink Cartridges

HP Envy 5644 Expert Review

The HP Envy 5644 e-All-in-One has the wireless functionality which will allow the whole family to enjoy printing on-the-go from a range of devices.

Easy printing is made possible thanks to the 5644 being able print with or without a router or wireless network. This machine can be connected to either your local network or the internet wirelessly straight from your PC.

Whether you prefer to print from an iPhone, iPad or Android mobile device, this printer can deliver excellent results for both text documents and colour photographs. As an all-in-one, there are the added benefits of a copier and scanner to be enjoyed.

Navigating through the machine’s various functions is made easier as a result of a 6.75cm touchscreen.

For the photo printing enthusiast, a 10 x 15cm borderless print can be produced in as little as 32 seconds.

Capable of coping with the print demands of a busy family home or even a shared student house, the 5644 has a 125-sheet paper handling capacity. XL ink cartridges are also compatible with this machine to help your printing go further.

HP Envy 5644 Printer Review

With its 4800 x 1200dpi maximum print resolution, the HP Envy 5644 e-All-in-One is a more than capable printer for those looking for good quality document and photo results.

Many look to the Envy range of printers to perhaps satisfy the demands of a home office and this machine has an auto duplexing functionality that will be appreciated by those who prefer printing on both sides of the page.

Reasonably quick print speeds are a plus point for this printer whilst the design and build quality is of the good standard you’d expect from a model in the Envy range.

An above average paper capacity will once more make the 5644 popular with those looking for a device to sit on their home office desktop but it’s worth noting that there is no Ethernet connectivity or PictBridge compatibility.

When it comes to value for money, the XL cartridges help but for frequent printer users, they may feel that there is a higher level of consistency to be found with other printers in the same price range.

Pros

• Auto duplexing offered as standard
• Good standard of photo printing
• Large paper handling capacity

Cons

• Not Google Cloud Print ready
• No Ethernet connection
• High ink usage when colour printing
