    Depending on your individual needs, this portable delivers. There are 3 varieties of this model which offer a rechargeable battery, wifi, wireless and bluetooth. Its compact, prints photos and text well. Some folks complain about sub-par prints but that is due to not using the recommended Photo Cartridge or other cartridges for crisp/sharp text. Works like a champ!

      Comments about HP / Hewlett-Packard Officejet H470 Mobile Printer:

      I bought this for my wife. We needed a small footprint, because her work station is relatively tight. We had a 450 before this one, which served us well, but finally died on us after almost 7 years! Not bad hey! Let's hope the H470 does as well. Print quality is excellent, speed is on par ... we're very happy with this product.

                Previous posts have suggested a problem with configuration. I have experienced none.

                      I kind of wish it had come with an equally protable carrying case.

                            I have not used the printer in the field—yet. But the tests I have done in house suggest this was a good buy. It prints fast and the final product is on a par with all of our other printers. I would recommend this to anyone who needs printing while on the road. Oh, and it fits nicely into a laptop bat to boot!

                            Comments about HP / Hewlett-Packard Officejet H470 Mobile Printer:

                            Depending on your individual needs, this portable delivers. There are 3 varieties of this model which offer a rechargeable battery, wifi, wireless and bluetooth. Its compact, prints photos and text well. Some folks complain about sub-par prints but that is due to not using the recommended Photo Cartridge or other cartridges for crisp/sharp text. Works like a champ!
