The HP Envy 6155e is an attractive all-in-one printer designed specifically for low-volume home use. Its price is right, and HP includes three months of Instant Ink to add more value to the Envy 6155e.
I went hands-on to test the Envy 6155e’s performance, quality, and ease of use. I also delve into the print costs of this cartridge-based printer and compare the long-term value of an HP Instant Ink subscription to help you decide whether this is the best printer for you.

Design
The HP Envy 6155e has a sleek, attractive design that blends well with home decor. The unique design allows for a very low profile. The 5.4-inch height makes it even shorter than Canon’s tiny Pixma TR7020a. With a compact footprint of 17.1 by 14.2 inches and a weight of 11.3 pounds, the Envy 6155e is easy to manage and doesn’t take up too much room.
Printing performance
The Envy 6155e has good print quality with accurate colors and crisp text. One-page documents are surprisingly quick, rolling out in about 11 seconds. Longer documents feel slow by comparison, printing at a maximum of 10 pages per minute (ppm) for black text and 7 ppm for color.
Special features
The Envy 6155e has a useful 1200 dpi flatbed scanner. It’s reasonably fast for a compact home printer. Copy speeds are up to 8 copies per minute (cpm) for black-and-white and 3.5 cpm for color documents.
Software and compatibility
Setup is quite simple. The color touchscreen showed a QR code for the HP Smart app, which guided me to install the black and tricolor cartridges, insert paper, and start the printhead alignment process.
Price
Priced at $139.99, the HP Envy 6155e is an affordable option if you don’t need to print often, but do want the convenience of printing a picture and shipping labels at a moment’s notice or making copies from time to time.

The HP Envy 6155e is a solid choice for home use thanks to its sleek design, good quality, and simple operation. It’s an inexpensive, low-volume printer that can save you a trip to the office store, making a hectic day a bit easier. HP recommends printing of up to 400 pages monthly but the Envy 6155e can handle as much as 1,000 pages on a rare busy month.
