If anyone asks me advice for buying printers, I only recommend Ink Tank printers. I have had too many bad experiences with ink cartridges printers that I would not take one even for free. While the ink-jet printers cost a lot less when you buy them when you add up the successive cartridge costs and the problems that they make you go through, investing up front in an ink tank printer will start making more sense. Over the years, the cost of ink tank printers has gone down quite a bit which makes them even more alluring. The HP Ink Tank Wireless 419 printer (₹13,895) is one of the most affordable int tank printers on the market and in this article, we will see whether it is cutting corners to meet that price or it is as good as the company says. Here is our review of the HP Ink Tank Wireless 419 printer:

In the table below, you can find all the important specifications that you need to know about the printer. These specifications will help you determine if the printer will suffice your needs or not. For most home and office users, the HP Ink Tank Wireless 419 will be enough, however, it is still good to check the specifications before buying anything. If you want a detailed list of all its specifications, you can get it on HP’s official website.

Design and Build Quality

The HP Ink Tank Wireless 419 is a compact printer which will not take much space on your desk. It features a retractable paper input panel along with foldable paper output panel. I love the printers that have the paper intake at the top-back as it just makes life so much easier and the HP Ink Tank Wireless 419 brings the same system. Since the paper intake system can be closed, it also prevents the printer from eating dust when not in use.

HP Ink Tank Wireless 419 brings enough connectivity options and allows you to send prints to the printer using a number of devices. It is not only compatible with both Windows and macOS operating system but also offers mobile printing services for iOS and Android devices (more on this later). As far as connectivity is concerned, you can either use the wired connection or go the wireless route.

Printing and Performance

We tested the printing and performance of the HP Ink Tank Wireless 419 by printing dozens of documents and pictures. We used documents with difficult fonts along with scanned documents, IDs, emails, and more. After printing dozens of documents and pictures, I am happy to report that the HP Ink Tank Wireless 419 brings exceptional print quality. The ink on the print is precise and never smudges. The paper remains pristine and doesn’t show any ink overflow on the edges.

Scanning and Copying

When it comes to scanning documents, the HP Ink Tank Wireless 419 is nothing exceptional. It takes the usual 10-20 seconds to scan a document which is normal for a printer in this price range. Copying is a bit faster and the printer supports multiple copies. Overall, I would say that the printer’s scanning ability is nothing out of the ordinary but at the same time, it is not terrible either.

  • Wired and wireless connectivity options
  • Excellent iOS and Android apps for mobile printing
  • Good print quality
  • Compact and light
  • Ink Tank Support
