Unboxing / Accessories

HP Deskjet Ink Advantage 2676 All-in-One printer is packed in a medium sized box which is securely placed and supported with a styropor.  Inside the box you can find the Noble Blue Wireless Printer, USB Cable, User Guide, Black Ink Cartridge and Colored Ink Cartridge.

The All-in-One Wireless printer is using specifically N9J22A HP 680 Tri-color and N9J23A HP 680 Black Cartridge.  The cartridge can also compete with those refillable inks in terms of printing cost. You can buy the cartridge at an affordable price of around PHP 430.00.

Build Quality / Design

Solid looking build and minimalist design

HP Deskjet Ink Advantage 2676 All-in-One Printer is designed with elegance with a trendy and vibrant color of noble blue. It is built with high quality plastic resins which make the printer durable.

The left side part of the printer is where you can control the printer manually.  It comes with the following power button, counter, cancel printing, wifi signal, color scan/photocopy, black scan/photocopy.

Although the white color is dominant in the printer, surprisingly, it is a bit dust resistant.  You can easily wipe with a clean towel or a tissue paper in a breeze.

Performance

The controls

You can print using any mobile device in a snap. You may download HP Smart application via Google Play.  The app can actually detect available printer within your network. 

Left - Right: Draft, Normal, Quality

Printing has different modes such as Draft, Normal, and Quality. As you can see above photo, there is no much difference with the Normal and Quality.

The printer is really cost-effective. Why? It’s because I was able to print more than 30 colored pages using Quality mode and 5 A4 size photos, 5 pages using a transfer on paper where I used in shirt printing and still there is much-left ink as indicated in the counter. 

Sample Prints

Print via matte photo paper

Normal mode print on a Vellum Board

Pros - Dust proof, fast connection, easy installation ng driver, draft quality is good as normal, good price
Cons - Can't think of any for the price

Verdict

HP Deskjet Ink Advantage 2676 Printer really is a pocket-friendly printer. You can use it in your school projects, office brochures or even t-shirt printing business. The quality is really amazing compared to other printers. You won’t be needing four colors ink just like those printers claiming it will be more efficient.
