HP ENVY 6055e

The HP ENVY 6055e is mediocre for family use. Its print quality for black and color documents isn't very good, and photos look flat and unnatural due to its narrow color range and poor accuracy. Also, its ink cartridges run out quickly, making it expensive to maintain. It has a high-resolution scanner, but the scan quality is only passable as it doesn't pick up finer details, which isn't ideal for digitizing photos. On the upside, it has decent connectivity options, including Wi-Fi, USB, and support for Apple AirPrint and Mopria Print Service, and its mobile companion app is feature-rich.
