HP DeskJet Ink Advantage 3785 All-in-One: Makes for a perfect home printer

In this day and age and with technology advancing at a rapid rate and everything from smartphones to projectors seems to becoming smaller by the day, it was about time that printers followed suit as well. Gone are the days when you needed hefty printing machines that occupy half a room and need ten people to relocate them.




Touted as the world’s smallest all-in-one printer for the home, the HP Deskjet Ink Advantage 3785 comes in a very small package. The all-in-one printer measures just 40.3-by-45.1-by-26.4cm in dimension and weighs around 2.3-kgs. Inside the box, the printer comes with a power cable and adapter, a USB cable for connecting to the computer, a CD for installing the drivers, two ink cartridges (one black and one colour) and some manuals and quick guides.

Setting up the printer is a walk in the park. All you do is install the drivers, connect the printer through the USB cable and the bundled software does the rest of the setup procedure. The HP 3785 Deskjet Ink Advantage all-in-one printer is designed to now only save desk real estate, but also money, since the Ink Advantage cartridges are supposed to offer more prints for lesser cost per page.

The overall design of the 3785 is sleek and the build quality is quite good. Apart from USB connectivity, the 3785 supports Wi-Fi connectivity. This means it supports HP’s All-in-One Printer Remote mobile application for Android, iOS and Windows devices. With this app, you will be able to wirelessly print material from your tablet or smartphone with ease without involving your PC.
