Google Chromebook Print To Bluetooth Printer

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] HP has a long history of high-quality printers. The HP SmartTank 5101 All-in-one printer keeps the tradition going. ~Ease of Setup: I am a long-time toner cartridge user, so I was hesitant to a tank style printer. Messy ink cartridges have frequently colored my hands, but I was surprised at how easy it was to setup. My 80-year father, one of the primary users, filled the tanks and found it very easy and intuitive. Then looking at the directions after the fact, we realized that the directions were quite easy to follow as well. Simple setup and no more messy ink cartridges. ~Ink: The tank system, a high-capacity tank system significantly reducing the frequency of refills, is living up to the hype. That and a 2-year supply. love it. ~Wireless: An extremely critical need for our house was wireless connectivity. We have multiple operating systems in the house, including a Chromebook. I had spent over a dozen hours having the Chromebook connect to other printers, with only limited results. ~The HP SmartTank 5101 was a great success. Quick and easy setup. No extra apps, no extra cables. All machines, laptops, Chromebook, android phones, and google phones can print wirelessly. ~Quality and speed. The print speed and quality is appropriate for a home office. There is an initial adjustment of the print heads when first printing, but overall great speed. Quality is great and though I have not tried all paper types, I expect great results when needed. ~Copy / Scan – This is quite easy and straight forward. Either using the options on the printer itself or via the HP SmartApp. Great Quality and performance were up to HP standards. ~My only with would be a paper tray instead of a feeder. I personally and keep the paper straighter and more aligned using a tray instead of a feeder. The HP SmartTank 5101 is a successful addition to the HP printer family!

The only thing that is not the best of all i have ever heard , is that you can not bluetooth and it should have google

Nice printer for labels. The bluetooth allows you to print from your phone. This was very helpful in the warehouse.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This printer was relatively easy to setup. I really like that it’s Bluetooth compatible with my iPhone so I can print directly from my documents folder. My only complaint is that you can’t turn it on from your phone, so you have to physically be in the same room to print.

It seems well-made my Chromebook looks comfy in it.

Read the fine print. This uses Bluetooth LE, and that requires an iPad3 or better. After wondering why it didn't work with either iPad2 here, I found that tidbit (which I had missed) in the fine print, hemmed, hawed, and opted to upgrade the iPad side of the system. It is a quality product, which on the one hand seems quite pricey for what is effectively a 2 button bluetooth keyboard, but on the other hand is much better made than whatever I might kludge up from a cheaper bluetooth keyboard with many more keys. The keys are lit, soft, and silent, and the device is considerably more affordable than some others in its niche - and with the keys on top, not over the edge, it works fine on carpets (some reviews indicate that is a weakness of some competing devices.) For hands-free page turning it really is ideal. Intended for foot operation, it is a bit larger than you'd expect from the pictures.

I bought this printer some time ago and was quite pleased with it's performance then as I am now. Unfortunately, I cant get my Chromebook to find it. My phone is connected to my Chromebook/ HP.

Been using this printer, sporadically, for about one year. Very good 4X6 glossy photo printer, my primary decision point, at a low price. Fast text printing. Fast enough duplex printing. No problem connecting to my WiFi or printing from iPhone or iPad. Initially could not print from Chromebook but now printing from Chromebook without issue. Dislike the cost of Canon ink cartridges but can't argue with photo printing results. Have never used the fax feature.

This is a nice printer. It connects to all of my devices (phone, desktop, chromebook, etc.) seamlessly. Easy to use and set up.

Finally a HP printer that works with my wife's Chromebook. Couldn't get any of three other HP printers to connect using WiFi or USB. Connected this one with USB and running thru Chromebook printer setup, it worked.
