123.hp.com/setup 4526 | 123 HP Envy 4526 Features

Sleek, sturdy and stylish, the HP Envy 4526 multi-functional printer is the perfect candidate for show off more than printing. Its all-black look and front panel can elevate to 45 degrees to reveal a paper input tray but the print speed clocks at 2.1 ppm which is a tad bit disappointing considering the cost factor. The output print quality for text and graphics is reasonable. You can print directly from a USB stick and even get a preview of the document on the touch screen control panel. Overall, the HP Envy 4526 wouldn’t be a bad printer for home use as it is silent and efficient.
