HP OfficeJet H470 Mobile Inkjet Printer

By Simon Williams (trustedreviews.com)

This mobile printer from HP may lack a few niceties, but it's surprisingly cheap to run and print quality is reasonable good, too.

There's quite a bit going for this diminutive inkjet printer, though surprisingly size is not one of its killer features. It's easy to use and versatile if you opt for the WiFi or Bluetooth adapters and the lithium ion battery. It's a bit surprising...

HP Officejet H470wbt review

By Paul Jasper (pcadvisor.co.uk)

The HP Officejet H470 is a mobile inkjet printer aimed at those people who need to print reports, photos, and brochures straight from a laptop, camera, or phone while on the road.

Although it offers desktop-quality printing from a wide variety of devices, the HP Officejet H470wbt is hampered by slow performance. Still, mobile users will find it a worthy addition to their travelling kit.

HP OfficeJet H470wbt

By Thomas Mckinnon (techsmart.co.za)

The HP Officejet H470 Mobile Printer series is designed for mobile professionals who need a compact and rugged printer offering print speeds and quality equal to that of desktop printers, plus the convenience of a wide range of connectivity options.

Our only niggle is the print quality. “Office quality” prints is a term that we use quite loosely in this regard. Do not expect to replace your office printer with the H470 if you need high quality prints. Do expect a stylish mobile printer.

H470WBT Mobile

By Paul Jasper (pcworld.com)

The HP Officejet H470 Mobile Printer targets people who travel a lot yet need to print reports, photos, and brochures straight from a notebook, camera, or phone.

High-quality text and photo printing Prints from Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and cards

Erratic paper feed Slow performance

Though it offers desktop-quality printing from a wide variety of devices, the H470 is hampered by slow performance. Still, mobile users will find it a worthy competitor to Canon's portable Pixma iP90v

Relatively fast; low cost per page; sleek new color scheme

Poor-quality prints; glitch-prone paper feeder; dSLR owners will miss the CompactFlash port

HP markets the Officejet H470wbt to the mobile business professional, but it chose aesthetics over performance. The sleek design and cost-effective cartridges give its rating a slight boost, but the degradation of print quality from the previous model...

We wish we could speak better of the H470wbt, the highest-end model in the line, but this new model is an unimpressive update--you'd be better off purchasing its previous incarnation, the HP Deskjet 460c, at a discounted price.
