My New Printer Might be an example of chasing a fad or style. In its defense, it works.
For Example This printer has only one button. On/Off It does have a 4 inch touch screen that has all the functions that could be needed It also has an email address? It surfs the net with apps, and there is a site to add additional. It prints from my IPAD. In fact the IPAD can control the scanner too.
So Why? Well, the apps encourage you to print a summary of the USA Today, or a recipe. In fact they all have a print feature that prints, using the expensive ink. The touch screen is way better than my previous printer that had buttons and a little screen that was hard to see. Even if you don’t have an IPAD, HP knows that people who have them spend money.
So Why Do I Bring This Up? This product is so TODAY! It set itself up. Connecting to my wireless router, and suggesting that I might want to put a disk in my computer. The computer asked me how the printer was connected to the internet. I never plugged it in to the computer. My computer is not wifi but it gets to the printer through the router.
It Has an Email Address… The printer has an email address. If I’m no where near the printer, I can send a picture, spreadsheet or whatever, as an attachment and the printer will print it out. You can come home from vacation to a stack of snapshots, that what old people call pictures.
So Here it is… A printer/scanner that configures itself, communicates with the world and can read its own email. The screen is bigger than most SmartPhones. It works well.
This Printer Is A Computer It has an OS, operating system. We don’t know what it is but it could be WebOS, the same as the now discontinued HP Tablet. It does a lot of things, including communications, file reading and saving. It will scan directly to a SD card…
What common devices have OS’s? Kitchen appliances TV’s Cable boxes What else
