6968 without Ethernet.

[Sueh1212]

Hi, I'm new to the forum, I'd love some advice. We're looking for an all in one printer for homeschool use, we went to Best Buy and Office Depot yesterday then I went on Hp live chat last night. I hear so many different things I'm now more confused. 

We were told the 6968, 6978 or 3830 would be good options, so looking at these three, I was unsure if the 6968 and 6978 needed to be connected via ethernet cable. On live chat they said they would have to be connected via Ethernet but in the stores I was told they don't. I'm totally confused, the room I'd need the printer in won't have an ethernet. 

Can some one one clarify this for me please? We just want an all in one that can print probably 200-300 pages a month, sometimes color for homeschool projects, scan ability, print from a mobile device, works without an ethernet?

Thanks

Hi, HP DeskJet Ink Advantage 5000 All-in-One Printer series is a newer printer with print scan and copy, this doesnt have Ethernet port but you can connect it to a network using wireless option. you can also install HP smart app and print from a mobile device. You can also subscribe to Instant ink and only pay for the no of pages that you print. Below is more info on Instant ink. https://support.hp.com/in-en/document/c03760650

Hi, thank you for your reply. I’ve looked on Amazon I can’t see HP 5000, is there a specific one within the series you’d recommend? I can see the 5055. Would you be able to provide a link?
