EDITED 01/28/2025 TO ADD:
I purchased this printer on March 21, 2022 (less than 3 years ago). It worked fine, until recently when a EE error code popped up and all the lights started flashing. I could reboot the printer and it would work again, for a little while. Then I started getting messages from the HP InstantInk people about my printer not being connected to the web.
Tonight, I talked with HP Tech Support. Bad news! My 2.75-yr-old HP 4155e color inkjet printer is terminally ill. If it were still under warranty (which it is not), the rep told me they would just replace it because of this error. I'm thinking about it as if the motherboard got fried on a PC. Nothing to do but give it a decent burial. Dang it!
This is a very serviceable printer. It did what I asked of it, until it didn't. HP Tech Support was straight-forward with me. But no joy. It kills me that I'm gonna have to pitch this in the garbage. I hate that about modern technology. "Just trash it."
If you buy a HP4155e, I strongly recommend you buy any extended warranty or service plan such as Asurion Protection in hopes they will repair or replace your printer once the original warranty expires.
----------------------------------------
I don't usually need to do much, if any, color printing but my new "venture" as a Square Foot Gardening certified instructor has changed that. I need to print handouts for classes and doing color printing at Office Depot, UPS, etc. is extraordinarily expensive.
Did a fair amount of research and determined that the HP 4155e would likely fit my needs just fine.
Really glad I picked this particular model because it comes with SIX MONTHS of ink (no shipping costs) for free. I was excited to see, during setup, that I can do up to 700 pages of color printing per month during this six-month period. Thereafter, I can reduce my plan to as little as 10 pages a month for $0.99 and the option to "buy" additional copies as needed or to change my ink plan.
Set up was easier than I expected based on some of the comments left below. Fortunately, I didn't have any issues at all with the install. I can now print wirelessly from my phone, my PC or my husband's PC.
All in all, this printer has all the features I needed and I think the pricing for ink resupplies is reasonable, given my limited needs.
Also, it arrived right on time (two-day delivery).
