HP Smart Tank 529 All-in-One Colour Printer |Up to 4000 Black & 6000 Colour Prints I Print,Scan & Copy for Home/Office

Was finding a long lasting and low maintenance printer and came around this printer . I got my printer delivered yesterday and till now I have tried scanning and printing through my pc also. I can say it's a decent printer if you are student or an office worker , why am I saying? Because: Print quality - it's does what it is supposed to do ( you can see in the image ) Print speed - Sometimes the colourfull prints ( like the image attached) take time like 1 or 2 min , but the grayscale ones are very fast . Attachment - the wire is not too long ( 1 meter I guess) ,so you may need to place the printer near the switch board and the other end of the plug wire which is supposed to be attached to the printer is a bit loose in mine one . Well it's too early to judge it's performance, I'll again write the review after some months if in case I see any misfunctioning but as for now , it does its job .

To begin with, nowhere was it clearly disclosed that this device is incompatible with macOS. I’ll own part of the blame for trusting the brand and the marketplace instead of double-checking, but let’s be honest: this kind of omission would never fly in a more consumer-friendly market. Here, it’s quietly brushed under the carpet because the priority is selling boxes, not serving customers. After realizing the macOS dead end, I configured with a Windows laptop just to make the product usable. What followed was a masterclass in how not to design software. The scanner worked—then didn’t. Reinstall. The printer vanished. Reinstall. Scanning needed a different app. Reinstall. HP Smart stopped working altogether. Reinstall again. This cycle repeated so many times that I lost count. Hours wasted, patience exhausted, and for what? A basic printer-scanner setup that should work out of the box. Eventually, through sheer persistence rather than good design, I managed to get it running. But the real disaster came after a firmware update. The update completely broke the setup. This time, there was no way back. When I tried to download drivers manually, the official support site collapsed into absurdity. Enter the serial number and you’re rewarded with a clean, unapologetic 404 error. No driver page. No fallback. No explanation. Just a dead link—on an official support site. Still hoping for some professionalism, I contacted their so-called “24×7 WhatsApp support.” What followed was almost comical. They asked the usual scripted questions—name, email, model number, purchase date—only to conclude by suggesting a paid technician visit. When I refused and asked a simple, reasonable question—“Where is the driver page I should have access to?”—the response was to visit a service center instead. Immediately after that, they cheerfully asked if there was “anything else” they could help with. That question alone felt like satire. To summarize: incomplete disclosures, broken software, firmware that destroys functionality, missing drivers, non-existent online support, and a push toward paid service for problems created by their own ecosystem. This isn’t just a bad product—it’s a bad experience end to end. Bottom line: don’t buy this. Save your money, your time, and your sanity.

Top class till date, Print quality is upto mark , colour print is bit slow on glossy paper but otherwise it is fine, Mind it before purchasing it is only functional with usb no wifi support. Usb cable is only 1m so you do need extension for it. Another con is the warranty upon checking on hp website shows only for 20 days which upon talkin to hp customer executive was increased based on invoice. I bought it for home use and got a steal deal under 6.6 k with credit and no cost emi reduction.

I recently purchased the HP Printer from Amazon, and I happier with my decision. The setup was a breeze, thanks to the user-friendly instructions provided. The sleek design seamlessly blends into my home office, and the compact size doesn't compromise on functionality. Print quality is exceptional, delivering sharp text and vibrant colors. I appreciate the wireless printing feature, which allows me to conveniently print from my laptop or smartphone. The printer's speed is impressive, making quick work of both black and color documents. One standout feature is the reliable connectivity—never experienced any dropouts or connectivity issues. The intuitive buttons interface simplifies navigation, making it easy to access various functions. As for the ink efficiency, the printer seems to manage ink consumption well, and the option for instant ink delivery ensures I never run out unexpectedly.

Easy to install and operate. The inktank is within the body and not outside in a separate enclosure like some models. Good print and scan quality. The digital display is a god send. Value for money.

Best printer under 12,000 but only when you have a good 11 gen laptop or computer. Very easy to install and align this printer through it video. It will only work Best with laptop or computer but when you have to use it with phone through USB using otg cable it will frustrate u because ot do not have wifi. Overall good 👍
