Close to what I was looking for

I purchased this in April and waited until now to review so I could give, in my opinion, a more accurate review. I have used HP printers for over 15 years and every time I try a different brand, I wind up returning them and going back to HP for one reason or another. I absolutely loved my 8600 series from a few years ago but it was hit by lightning and had to replace it so purchased another in the series, I believe an 8610. I replaced my 8610 with the 8630 for only one reason, to get the extra tray as I do a LOT of envelopes, NOT because I was unhappy with the printer in any other way. With the 8610, I had to remove the paper, load the envelopes, remove the envelopes and reload the paper. Very time consuming and irritating to say the least, not user friendly like my previous version in this respect. The printing is clear, clean and crisp. The scan and copy modes are great.
The only reason I did not give 5 stars is due to that extra tray. I have preset tray 2 (plain paper tray) as the default tray and this works great when printing, but not when copying. When you copy, you still have to choose settings - tray - select tray 2 - go back and then print. Sounds like a minor thing but if you forget, out pops an envelope since when copying for some reason, the default is tray 1. I tried to set tray 2 up for the envelopes and tray 1 for the paper but this is not an option. A minor irritation but would be a nice software fix if HP could make the default tray the true default tray.
Bottom line, great printer, highly recommend for durability, scanning and print quality.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Not a good printer
on April 29, 2015

HP printers used to be the best available. Now they are mediocre, at best. This one doesn't print Quicken checks easily, loses communication w/ my desktop frequently, (it's located very close to the router and there is a strong signal), and the other features are difficult to manage. HP customer service is still prompt, easy to understand and very good, but they could not solve a couple of my issues, even after elevating them to a higher level.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

This printer is so fast

This is the fastest printer I've ever used. I use it at home and so far I haven't used it to it's fullest. I'm afraid I can't attest to most of the features, but I'm retiring soon and expect to get more use out if it when I have more time. Back to what I do know. The printer arrived in a timely manner. The assembly did take some time. I had to assemble everything, but was well packed and looked factory fresh even after shipping. The set up took some time, but it automatically connected to my network and registered itself online, with my permission of course. Then downloaded all updates to the software. I am reasonably computer savey, but a novice should have no trouble with the set up. The colors are crisp and sharp and as I said before, it prints super fast, even color printing. I'm looking forward to printing out some family PICS in a few weeks to see how nice that is. I'd also like to do some scanning of print documents and try out the OCR software. That's about all I can say at this point, but so far, I'm very happy with what I've used it for. I"d recommend this all in one to anyone.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I have been using a 8600 plus but it was getting wore down so I got the next printer 8630 to replace it. It is great and does what I need easily.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great do everything printer

So far this has been a great printer. Love having the second tray added to it to have one full ream of paper stored inside. The larger touch screen displays the needed icons and is very easy to read.
Wireless setup was a snap on my home network, much easier than I thought. Very easy to use with the setup guide as I was able to sit at my laptop and complete everything without even touching the printer.
Color quality on this has been great so far but I haven't printed pictures on anything glossy so I can't vouch for that just yet.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I have 3 HP 8630 printers in my office and they are dependable , easy to operate and has features which enable production of excellent copies. They are conservative on ink use and images are excellent with high resolution and print clarity. Operations are dependable, ink change simple and messages from the instrument are clear and informative. Excellent machines for the work place where written communication is critical.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great machine software stinks
on May 14, 2016
Posted by: PAHS
Other manufacturers software is so much easier to use, next time I will forgo a good machine for easier to use software. Customer support really poor to reach. To difficult to get through. Would not need customer support if the software was better.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I got this all-in-one printer a couple of days ago. It works great! It is great to be able to print from anywhere in the house, and from different devices. I love it! I highly recommend it!
