Now that HP Utility is no more and we only have HP Smart this scan to computer setting is missing.
#HP SMARTAPP MAC#
This function can only be turned on to recognize a Mac computer to scan to by turning on the tool under the “HP Utility” scan settings on the computer itself and not through the printers webpage settings. The printers have a “scan to computer” function where you stand at the printer and load files and press the printers touch screen button to scan the loaded pages directly to a computer. However, the development team seems to have left out a very important function for Apple Mac users that used to be in the old “HP Utility” application before “HP Smart” came around. iOS apps need to be able to compete with the functionality offered by a basic laptop printer driver, and in comparison, this is pretty much useless.The HP smart is a good way to access mobile uses, printer setup settings, and various other useful tools. This may be a ‘home printing’ targeted app but this year has proven that working from home is normal and more common than ever. I could be far from the printer, thinking the print job has gone ahead, but when I go to collect what should be a sizeable printed document a few minutes later, it hasn’t printed for one reason or other and I end up wasting time while I wait for it to print. As more and more professionals move to depend on iPads for work, these kind of features are an imperative! I also do not get a warning on my iPad if the print job pauses due to low ink or no paper, and for printing on WiFi that is a key requirement for me. I need to print long academic documents with photos and cannot justify the use of so much paper and ink that 1 page per sheet would use. Printing multiple pages per sheet is impossible and I think that is a necessary feature, for environmental reasons as well as cost saving ones.
It may be a ‘free’ app but considering its a proprietary one for use with HP printers, it is far below the standard where it needs to be. I have had HP smart for a while now and although it works fine as far as connecting to my printer, it is very VERY basic. Also, very disappointed in the online assistance - it just sends me around in circles to articles I’ve already read.įar too basic an app for a market leading printer brand
I’m finding I’m having to go into the office just to do printing, because this app and printer is so temperamental and just doesn’t always work. I bought this printer for working from home during the pandemic on items I can’t do online. You have to go into the print options from a different location, to then print your remainder of pages. I’ve also found the printer will suddenly stop midway through a large document print and it’s not straightforward reprinting from where you left off. I’ve managed to input my payment details end set up a subscription.
So now I’m low on ink, but the service doesn’t recognise I’m low on ink because it says I’m not connected and therefore won’t send me any ink out.
#HP SMARTAPP FULL#
The app on my phone connects fine when printing and scanning, but the minute I try to connect to buy new ink, it says the printer is offline (it clearly isn’t - the blue wifi light is on and I have full signal on my mobile too). I don’t normally leave negative reviews, but I’ve struggled with my Smart Printer since buying it in January.
