Expert Verdict

The HP Deskjet 3070A wireless printer, scanner, and copier is rather handsome and compact for a wireless printer, scanner, and copier, with a pleasing combination of light grey and olive green that gave it a smart but yet appealing appearance To say the least, the interface was simple - all functions were handled via a 50 mm non-touch LCD screen and three touch buttons. The printer had only one other button, which was used to switch it on and off. The HP Deskjet 3070A e-All-in-One is a bit bulky (w435 x d301 x h145 mm) in comparison to other home printers on the market, which isn't ideal if you're short on desk space. However, we found that this was to its advantage since we could imagine customers wanting to use the Deskjet's basic functionalities with as little bother as possible. Aside from printing from a PC, scanning photos to a network, and copying documents directly, the printer also has three types of rapid forms that may be printed with a single touch: fax cover, checklist, and calendar. The printer's operations and menus were pretty simple to use, especially when we loaded the accompanying software on our PC to activate the device's wireless capabilities.

HP DESKJET 3070A Inkjet printers' reputations are built on the quality of the images they can print with HP DESKJET 3070A ink cartridges, and we were impressed on this front. One of our test prints was extremely difficult, with bright highlights while yet retaining discernible detail. The colors of the final print were vibrant, despite the tough range of highlights, mid-tones, and shadow. Scanning and copying turned out to be just as simple. While the Deskjet 3070A provides some fine-tuning for controlling whether the first scan is darker or lighter, we soon discovered that we preferred to modify the overall lightness and contrast of the image using post-processing. On the copying front, you may choose whether to copy documents in color or black and white from the tray. The former gave the same remarkable effects as the color images we printed.

Many features of HP DESKJET 3070A printers help you save money on paper and electricity. You only have to replace the color you used with separate HP DESKJET 3070A ink cartridges, which saves you money on printing. The input paper tray can hold up to 80 sheets of plain paper. A4, B5, A5, A6, Letter, Legal, Envelopes (DL, C5, C6 size or Commercial 10), 25 x 30cm (10 x 12 in), 20 x 25cm (8 x 10 in), 13 x 18cm, and 10 x 15cm are among the paper sizes available. Great prints with HP DESKJET 3070A ink cartridges (Black, Cyan, Magenta, and Yellow) and optional XL capacity ink tanks that enable it to achieve a maximum printing resolution of 4,800 x 1,200 dpi. AirPrint allows you to print emails, photographs, web pages, and more directly from your iPad, iPhone, or iPod touch. HP mobile printing apps allow you to print wirelessly from your smartphone.

The HP Deskjet 3070A e-All-in-One is a must-have if speed is critical. The same cannot be said, however, for the quality.

Review

Maybe not the impressive visually or gracious in functionality but it does meet the printer aims and requirements. The paneling may not be every bodies colour of choice appearing quite dull. The operations can be awkward with paper handling and cartridge replacement.

However the running costs of the printer is paramount and luckily the HP 364XL is available as compatible or original brand HP ink cartridges. This makes a huge difference to the running coats of the printer during its lifetime and has to be a major consideration before committing to buying any printer. The HP364 inks are valuable as standard size and high capacity although the high capacity tend to be the only inks that are available as compatibles.

HP Deskjet 3070a is an all-in-one printer with basic features and looks. The printer is known for its speed and cost efficiency for an average consumer. It also has wireless connectivity and HP’s ePrint system.

The ePrint system allows the users to email their files as an attachment to a unique email address (assigned by HP to their printer). As soon as the printer receives these emails and files, it prints them out. Print quality is very high thanks to the HP Deskjet 3070A ink cartridges.

The overall performance of the printer is great for the price you pay. However, the features offered by the printer are not much and the display is limited. The printer does not win many hearts when it comes to design and looks. As the two-tone gray colour is not likely to go with any traditional black desktop.

The printer weighs approx. 11 pounds and has an LCD display of 5 cm. The printer has a USB interface but does not scan to USB or network location. The printer has wireless connection from neighboring devices which will allow printed documents to be transferred using email. this is very useful in an office environment or even the home. Most homes will have multiple PC, Tablet or Mobile devices connecting the same printer. There is no output paper tray and the printed documents spit out on top of the input papers.

Advantages:

• Good speed
• ePrint system and wireless connectivity
• HP Deskjet 3070A ink is available as remanufactured HP 364XL ink in addition to original HP brand

Disadvantages:

• Monochrome prints lack clarity

Conclusion:

For overall rating, it is an average all-in-one printer that can offer you a speed but does not earn great points for quality. The printer is best buy for basic document printing and would not be sufficient for graphics or coloured images. However comparing relative to other printers of similar budget for black and white printing the quality is clear and precise. If this is your price bracket then go for it. If you are printing colour documents on a regular basis the HP Deskjet 3070A ink may not be totally suited. The resolution and colour finish is pretty good but the speed is one area that does cause concern. Processing the graphics and transferring the ink to the hard copy is a slow task which will not suit everyone.
