Test ResultsDesign Type All in One The HP ENVY Photo 7155 has a passable design. While the printer feels sturdy and well-built overall, the main input tray isn't removable, so it can be hard to load paper as space is pretty tight. Also, while the tray has width sliders, it doesn't have length sliders, which can end up causing interruptions during print jobs. Raising the scanner bed gives you access to the ink cartridges, even when the printer is off, and to any paper jams. However, the scanner lid doesn't have any extendable hinges for thicker documents, and when lifting the scanner lid from the side, there's a good chance that the scanner bed will come with it. Height Lock" (Lock cm) Width Lock" (Lock cm) Depth Lock" (Lock cm) Weight Lock lbs (Lock kg) The HP ENVY Photo 7155 is a compact printer that's very similar to the HP ENVY Photo 7855, except that it's shorter due to the lack of an automatic document feeder. Display Screen Locked Display Screen Size Lock" (Lock cm) Touchscreen Locked The HP 7155's display console is sub-par. Although the menu is easy to navigate, the display itself isn't that great. The viewing angles are poor, and it can't tilt or swivel for better visibility. Pressing on one of the icons on the top bar only brings down another menu, so you have to press the appropriate icon a second time to access the actual settings menu. Also, accessing the settings menu can feel laggy and unresponsive at times. If you're looking for a printer with a better display screen, check out the HP ENVY Photo 6255. Both printers are very similar, but the 6255 has an easier-to-navigate display screen.

It doesn't have any photo ink cartridges despite being a printer that's intended for printing photos, and it only has one color cartridge. Both black and color page yields are low, so the cartridges need to be replaced quite often. Also, the printer continues to print blank pages even when it's completely out of ink. On the bright side, there are high-yield cartridges available, and you can also subscribe to HP's Instant Ink service. The printer accepts third-party cartridges, although using them may void the warranty. Scanner Locked Scan Flatbed Locked Scan Sheetfed Locked Automatic Document Feeder Locked Duplex Scanning Locked Scan Resolution Lock DPI Scan Color Depth Lock Bit Flatbed Scan Size Locked Fax Locked Copy Locked The HP 7155 has mediocre scanning features. It only has a flatbed scanner and, unlike the HP OfficeJet Pro 8025, which has an automatic document feeder, it can be rather tedious and time-consuming to process multi-page documents. On the upside, its scanning resolution and color depth are fairly standard. Printing Black Cartridge Price Lock US$ Color Cartridge Price Lock US$ Black Only Printing Lock US$/print Color Printing Lock US$/print Photo Printing Lock US$/print Ink Subscription Locked The HP ENVY 7155's cost-per-print is okay. Even though the cartridges are reasonably priced, you still end up having to replace them often due to their low page yield, costing more over time. This applies to both black only and color printing. Keep in mind that even if you print only in black, most inkjet printers continue using the color cartridge for servicing tasks, so you'll likely still need to replace it eventually. Black Only Text Document Lock PPM Color Document Lock PPM Photo Printing Time Lock s First Page Out Time (Black Only) Lock s Duplex Printing Locked Input Tray Capacity Lock pages The HP ENVY 7155's printing speed is reasonable. It takes a long time to print pretty much everything, whether it's black only documents, color documents, or photos. Thankfully, the input tray can hold up to 125 sheets of paper, so you can leave it running for a while before having to reload. The output tray, however, can only hold up to 25 sheets. Average Color dE Lock The HP ENVY 7155 has excellent color accuracy, although there are still some inaccuracies for most colors, with dark greens and dark blues being the worse. This should be fine if you're printing casually, but may not be good enough for professionals who need accurate color reproduction. Borderless Printing Locked The HP ENVY 7155 has very decent photo printing quality. The color temperature seems to be on the warm side as there's a slight reddish tone to all the images. Yellows appear vibrant, and the colors are well-defined, but there's some banding in the grayscale. These results are based on the actual physical photo, not the scanned image provided for reference above, which may not be representative of the printer's photo print quality. Letter (8.5" x 11") Locked Legal (8.5" x 14") Locked Tabloid (11" x 17") Locked A6 (105mm x 148mm) Locked A5 (148mm x 210mm) Locked A4 (210mm x 297mm) Locked Photo (2" x 3") Locked Photo (4" x 6") Locked Photo (5" x 7") Locked The HP ENVY 7155 supports most common paper sizes up to the standard legal size. The main input tray has sliders to accommodate different widths, but not lengths. This can lead to interruptions during print jobs, as the printer may be unable to grab the sheets of paper. Also, the input tray is only long enough for letter-size paper and there's no extension, so legal-size paper ends up hanging off the edge of the input tray. Mobile App And Connectivity Ethernet Locked USB Input To Computer Locked Wireless Yes Bluetooth Locked Wi-Fi via Router Locked Wi-Fi Direct Locked External Storage Support Locked Apple AirPrint Locked Mopria Print Service Locked The HP ENVY 7155 has great connectivity options. The printer has an SD card reader; it's located on the front left side of the printer, and there's a round cover protecting the port, as you can see in this photo. It doesn't have an ethernet port, and while there's mention of Bluetooth support, it can only be used to set up the printer, not to perform any print jobs. Mobile App Locked App Name Locked iOS Locked Android Locked Photo (JPEG, PNG) Locked PDF Locked Microsoft Office Files Locked Text Files (TXT) Locked Webpages (HTML) Locked The HP Smart mobile app is decent. It lets you print photos and documents directly from the app, and you can also quickly scan documents using your smartphone's camera, though only at a maximum resolution of 300 DPI. Also, you can send mobile faxes from the app and manage your ink subscription if you're subscribed to HP's ink delivery service. Is HP ENVY 7155 discontinued?This printer has been discontinued.
