No computer tech needed. But if you are transferring files from an old computer, you might ask for help at that point.

for me it works fine, there are so many options to go through as far a setting up for what you want, a friend has one also and loves it too, im still trying to fine tune it for my needs, hope this was a little help

Fairly easy. Good support is available from Linksys/Belkin --They have special support for this product.

Sorry! It's just a cheap awful printer. It will not work more than it will. Abandon it and chop it up as HP doesn't make good printers anymore.

It is fairly easy to set it up. You can follow their printed material really easily, and then it goes to the CD/Website for their software setup. Just have a pen and paper handy to write down your LAN name and passwords. It took me all of 20 minutes to set mine up; 3 computers, 2 Android Tablets, 2 Android Smartphones, my video surveillance system and my Guest Server. The range is SUPER!

I have had mine a week also --- had it hooked up once only took 5 hours. Then I unplugged it to put it where I was to used it and haven't been able to get it up and running wirelessly since. Had the same issue with hp4680 which I sent back for this one and now I am sending this one back. NOTHING should be this hard ....glad you haven't had any issues because it is very frustrating when you do. I have Vista 64bit and I don't think it works so good with it.

Not to hard. It took me and my husband about 10-15 minutes to set up the first time. Considering it's size, it's not bad at all.

Ours has worked excellent, and allot better than the good for nothing/noisy HP we had prior to it!!

Do a search for a setup manual and you will find it very easily. Setup should take about 30 minutes.

Absolutely. That's why I chose it. Take it into the store and the techs can get you up & running in no time flat.

It is very simple, but not quite that simple. I have absolutely zero computer skills and I did it. If you follow the step by step instructions you should be fine.

Have had mine for at least 14 years and I set it up myself. Takes me about 15 minutes. I welcome any help offered though. Don't think you'll regret the purchase.

I have three of these and I am very happy with it. It is quicker, and a very easy install. I have the three computers networked and it is a smooth operation to switch between all of them. I hope this helps. Mark.

I have the HP Envy 4500 and it works great with this computer. All wireless printers should work with this and other chromebase and chromebook computers as well. This was my first time using wireless printing and I love it. It wasn't all that difficult to set up the wireless printing, even for a non computer geek type like me.

Yes it is. The setup can be a little off on windows 7 as it tried to install it to a wrong port. HP was great. A quick call and they fixed it. If you are using it on a network, the setup is no problem. I was setting it up through a USB. But again, HP was quickly able to fix it

The term "easy" is relative. I would recommend downloading the manual to obtain a good understanding of the install and setup procedures. But, the average person shouldn't have that much of a problem if instructions are read and followed carefully. Rule of thumb: just don't connect and reconnect while any of the components are on! Turn them off and check connections before turning anything on. If in doubt, hire a professional.

I asked this early on and was told I could for about $100 but it that it would void the warranty.This was from a 1st level HP tech. Don't know how valid it is. I've adapted pretty well and for $5 you might try stardock.com/products/start8 for a more familiar interface if you don't use or like touch screen and use "Desk Top" option.
