Good, but with weaknesses

Good, but with weaknesses

HP Deskjet 3050A e-All-in One multi-function device (scanner, photocopier and printer) (Personal Computers)

Customer Review

Let us first of all for the better:

The decor was simple - unpacked printer cartridges in and turned on. Then slid the CD into the PC drive and installed software. Finally, the printer still missed an email address and the app for the smartphone (HP ePrint Home & Biz) downloaded.
After that, the printer should be ready for use. While setting up a test page prints, which still has to be scanned as well.

Copying is slightly out of hand. You can determine the number of copies and choose between grayscale and color.

The printing via Wi-Fi (via smartphone and PC) and someone works very well and goes quickly. Just about the feature of email printing I'm thrilled. This I can now print on the move important documents and have them immediately at home in your hand. The contents of the email and the attachment be printed separately.

The scanning work for small initial problems now also. The problem is that the scan function was not working on the wireless, I had also. After anschmeißen the search engine here is the solution for Win7 (instructions may vary with other operating systems):

Start -> Control Panel -> Administrative Tools -> Services

Then the "Shell Hardware Detection" and the "Windows Image Acquisition (WIA)" can start automatically by each performs a double and the Startup Type is set to "Automatic".

After the scanning process should also work on the Wi-Fi.

My criticisms begin where the positive ends: scanning. The colors are pale and without finishing has significant loss of quality compared to the original. About the scanning software can indeed regulate the brightness and contrast, that is not enough for me but from. Furthermore, I can only recommend everyone to control the scan via the PC, because you thereby still can adjust the location, resolution etc..

What I also still displeases is the "value". The printer is a single plastic bowl. When inserting the cartridges I had actually afraid to break the holder. The scan cover has game and can be twisted without much effort.
For me, just a little too much plastic, but for the price we must of course expect a brushed aluminum.

Edit [02:05:12]

After the printer was now desöfteren in use, I prefer to stay while printing in another room. Either the printer is extremely unfavorable, or he just roars really loud. I tend to the latter, as other reviewers share the same experience.

Even better than Cat Phoenix! Rank: 5/5
