Our Verdict

HP ENVY 6155e

HP ENVY 6555e

The HP ENVY 6155e and HP ENVY 6555e are two very similar all-in-one inkjet printers. The major difference is that the 6555e comes with an ADF-equipped scanner, while the 6155e only has a flatbed scanner. Otherwise, both produce sharp enough documents, detailed photos, and excellent scans. Their major issue is low page yields, which results in high recurring costs and maintenance requirements.
