HP OfficeJet H470 Mobile Printer Review

I’ve set my management team up with mobile offices in their trucks to manage their teams in the field. In route work, you need to be able to hand out a map on the spur of the moment. This printer is a much needed answer for our supervisors’ requirements. Running on a battery means no power concerns or cord tangles and trip hazards out there alongside the truck when the tailgate of the truck is made an instant desk. With the optional bluetooth or wifi configuration, (all three configurations are available on this unit) you have no cords at all. Just pull it out, turn it on, load some paper and you’re ready to print. It spits out pages in good quality at up to 22 pages per minute, prints in color or grayscale, and does it with no fussing about. Not bad performance for an office printer much less a battery operated, no wires printer on the tailgate of a truck. I logged onto the HP website to download the drivers from the net rather than the included discs because we’re using netbook computers to command the printer, so no optical drives are in these computers. HP’s site was easy to navigate and the drivers were easy to find and the download went without any hitches, plus HP sent me an email after this visit and registration to have me review their service. Seems like they care about the customer experience though I didn’t have any issues which would have required any special assistance. That’s kind of the ideal, isn’t it?

The only negative I have for this unit is the price of the ink cartridges. However, weighing the cost of ink against the convenience of easy loading cartridges and the cost of having team members wandering around neighborhoods looking for a specific street this is much more cost effective.
