In today’s homes many of your electronics are expected to do more than what they might have originally been intended to do. Most cable boxes now record, some microwaves now can be used as convection ovens, and our phones have almost exclusively become our phone/camera/camcorder.

Now our printers are turning into something that would resemble a piece of equipment from the Transformers but in a good way! This week, Twiniversity is giving away just that, three HP ENVY’s, and you’ll find this printer is MUCH more than a printer.

Yesterday we focused on style and practicality, today we focus on function!

One of the amazing functions of the ENVY is the selection of apps? Wait, does your printer have apps? No, I didn’t say your phone or your tablet, I asked if your PRINTER had apps? Don’t feel bad, mine doesn’t either. The new HP ENVY has cornered the market in the printer application division. With a few touches of the screen you can activate these apps and print recipes from Epicurious, coloring pages from Nickelodeon, Disney and Sesame Street, movie tickets from Fandango, newspapers from USA Today and MORE!

Seriously, there isn’t much that I would want that isn’t included in the selection ofapps. Heck you can even print photos right from your Facebook account!

 

Another feature that takes my breath away is the web connected printing.

What is a Web-connected printer?

Many of the newest printers from HP connect to the Internet, enabling these key benefits:

  • ePrint – Use this HP feature to print from anywhere with a Web connection by sending an email to your printer’s email address.
  • Print apps – Enjoy instant access to printable Web content from your printer’s control panel, for select Internet-capable printers.
  • ePrintCenter – See your printer status, add and remove print apps, and manage ePrint settings and job history from any Web browser, at home or on the go.

This printer will exceed all the expectations from it’s smooth lines, to it’s apps, this printer takes the cake!

You can buy it online on in most chain electronics store today in time to have it under the tree!

Happy Printing! Want to win one? Check out the details from yesterday’s article.
