3.0 out of 5 stars Little good with a Little bad, January 22, 2009

The HP H470wbt is HP's answer to the "on the go" printer. If you haven't read the spec you will see this particular incarnation comes with a battery for on the road use. The battery is charged while on the printer much like a laptop.

The overall quality of print is passable but not top of the line nor a good choice if you want nice photo-quality prints.

However, if you need to print normal text or perhaps a page from the internet, it does fine. The pages come out at a fair pace (better than one would expect from a small printer) and the quality is acceptable.

The footprint is relatively small and if you plan to carry around with you, expect to use something like a backpack or camera style backpack for your laptop and the printer.

The blue tooth that comes with it works well enough. Just remember to install the blue tooth drivers then deal with Windows itself (in that order).

The one real caveat relates to small printer small ink cartridges. One has to realize to keep this unit small and consume little power, the cartridges are on the small side. Fortunately, they are easily found at various merchants and not an odd special cartridge(s). There is the option to get slightly larger ones but again, the larger ones are also fairly small in output.

Last on the not so good list - HP insists on some of their inkjets to use flimsy mechanisms for housing the ink cartridges. In this case they have some "wires" bent to work with the install assembly of the cartridges. This is asking for trouble sooner or later.

I have not ran enough paper through to experience any paper feed problems and thus, cannot comment on this. This is an important part and as those who have had laser printers and inkjets know this can be a problem that occurs over time.

Overall the unit is passable and in some respect very nice. I give it three stars rather than four because of the ink install assembly. The blue tooth, compactness, reasonable output are all to be appreciated.

5.0 out of 5 stars It saved my bacon....more than once!, July 18, 2008

The HP H470wbt Officejet Mobile Printer is a life saver. I am a commercial investment real estate broker and often need to redraft documents I carry the unit in my truck. One day recently I needed to redraft a document prior to the buyer leaving the country for a month, so I fired up the HP inserted paper and "viola" new documents. The color is good the black and white is nearly laser quality, the footprint is small and it's easy to connect and use. I highly recommend this unit for small jobs and road warriors who need print capability is a small package.

4.0 out of 5 stars Nice small cordless printer but get the wifi, May 31, 2008

Set up easily - bluetooth has about a 15 foot range - the wifi is probably multi-room with a longer range. The printer takes up less space than most wired printers but isn't all that small. It's a lttle bulky and heavy for carrying around but the print quality is fine. Cost is a major drawback but if you want a small bluetooth or wifi, this is the way to go until something smaller and/or cheaper is available.
