Our Verdict
HP ENVY Photo 7855
HP ENVY 6055e
The HP ENVY Photo 7855 is overall better than the HP ENVY 6055e. The 7855's page yield is very low, but it's better than the 6055e's, which helps keep its cost-per-print lower. The 7855 has more connectivity options with Ethernet, Bluetooth, and external storage drive support, which the 6055e lacks. The 7855 also produces higher-quality black and white documents and has an automatic feeder to scan multi-page documents quickly.
