HP OfficeJet H470 Mobile Printer
HP OfficeJet H470 Mobile Printer Review
I hesitantly purchased this printer about 2 months ago [actually I paid 9.00] because I kept remembering the thought of inkjet prints smearing at the drop of a bead of sweat or water. That is no longer a concern. Apparently, HP [which I have not like in 20 years] has developed the magic ink solution that prevents the smearing. You can even use a highlighter without issue. That’s huge.
The printer was shipped very fast. As soon as I opened it, I downloaded the driver from the HP site [since I had read reviews speaking of the nightmare of using the included driver cd]. The drivers loaded without a hitch. The installation was quick and uneventful.
I printed some test pages and then started working it. The print speed was definitley not 18 pages per minute [more like 6-7 ppm - it may depend on the print mode], but the print quality was awesome, even for legal pleadings and important letters. I’m very satisfied. I had previously purchased a Planon Printstik PS905 thermal printer. It is now officially a paperweight. I don’t know if I will ever use it again since I purchased a Targus neoprene bag for .00, and I used it transport this printer. It fits very snugly, and I am completely mobile. There is no need to accept the extremely low quality thermal print of the Planon Printstik when you can have near laser quality prints from this unit without much bulk.
I also purchased a 3-Year Square Trade warranty plan. I hope I do not ever need to use it. I dread warranties, but I guess I’ll have to write a review if, and when, I ever get there.
Lastly, the price of the ink cartridges. I would not ever recommend refills, but there are many, many folks selling OEM ink cartridges on the net for under .00 delivered [a real bargain compared to HP's +]. So, I purchased some spare cartridges to make sure I am not left high and dry when I need it on the road. I do not have a need for color printing, so I will not comment on that.
Right now, since I am absent any difficulties, I am completely satisfied, and I would recommend this printer to anyone who has a mobile need. Hope it helps.

Customer Reviews
Ease of use? You’ve GOT to be kidding! – L. Miller – Virginia
Ok, to be fair, I never could use this printer. I searched for a portable COPIER, and kept coming up with portable printers. After several searches, I decided to try to make this printer copy. I couldn’t. But that is not the point of this review. The point is, it comes with two printer cartridges. For some reason they did not want to snap in as directed. It took me 20 minutes of determined effort to get them to seat properly and allow the cartridge hatch cover to close securely over them.
And the optional case? I got that, knowing I would be hauling the printer around in my car (if it worked), and it would need protection. The case is a very snug fit, but it does the job of protecting the unit.
A word to the wise: Never install printer cartridges until you know the printer will work. The seller of my unit refuses to accept the printer because I have installed those stubborn little cartridges. Also, don’t open or use the case until you’re sure you will keep the printer. Because I opened the case packaging, I can’t return that either. Anyone want a slick looking printer but useless copier in a glossy case? Learn from my mistakes, anyway.
HP H470 – Bluetooth does not work – Ana “D” – Conshohocken, PA
Can’t get the bluetooth to work, primary reason why I spent over 0. Very disappointed. I bought this before Christmas 2009, now I’m stuck with this piece of crap.
Take this “little” printer with you, and it’s also a photo printer alternative – matt.mingkee – Brooklyn, NY United States
I got it from local store for pretty good price and I used coupon to offset sales tax.
I was a bit worried for some negative review, so far it works fine for me.
I am not planning to use wifi option, but bluetooth is pretty handy (you can use ANY bluetooth USB adapter, I tested 7 different adapters and all worked).
This is highly recommended to do alignment once to make clearest printout.
This printer is also a great dedicated photo printer alternative, once having the printhead aligned, the photo looks pretty good, at least as good as some high end inkjet printers. both USB jacks (on the left and the back) can be used as pictbridge jack (only one can be used at a time).
The memory card slot is next to useless because the printer doesn’t have “screen” to choose which picture you can print; however, thanks to pictbridge and BT printing, you can select the pic on the phone or pda and print (use USB cable or send it through BT OBEX).
The printer is a bit bulky to carry, but it’s still decent for road warriors.
