| Even in the digital age, students still have many occasions to print. |
|

Owning your own HP wireless printer means you’re freed from printer cables and the often-inconvenient hours and locations of a school’s computer center when you need to print.
In spite of the prevalence of e-mail and the Internet, there is still an ample need for printing in college for both academic and social reasons. For example, many professors in both colleges and graduate schools prefer to receive hard copies of papers.
Also, printing out notes that a teacher distributes electronically makes them more portable and gives your eyes a rest from screen time.
Keep reading to see all the reasons why an HP wireless printer is the most sensible choice for this tech investment you’ll be using for the next several years. |
Reduce clutter in small spaces |
|
|
|
|
|
| A wireless printer can live in a common space so that everyone can access it. |
|
|
Streamline
In small spaces, such as the majority of dorm rooms, clutter is magnified into major mess. Untether yourself from your printer and gain a sense of order.
Besides, there are few things more annoying in a small space than letting the length of a printer cable dictate the arrangement of your desk.
Share
You can cut down on equipment clutter in a room or a suite by sharing a single wireless printer among several roommates. |
Get the most out of your notebook computer |
|
|
|
|
|
| After they hit Print, these students can return to their rooms and find their papers printed and waiting to be proofread. |
|
|
Work anywhere
You probably didn’t get a notebook computer so that you could be chained to a desk. A wireless printer allows you to print from bed, the floor, a common area—whatever’s most comfortable.
Some students attend college in warm-weather climates; a wireless printer allows those students to work outdoors while the printing goes on inside.
Eliminate hassle
In college and graduate school, there have occasionally been people who have chosen to do work at the last minute.
These people can be helped by not having to deal with cables (finding them, untangling them) when they’re trying to print out a paper or assignment due in mere moments on the other side of campus. |
| Several housemates can share a single wireless printer. |
| Promote your extra-curriculars in style—without expensive copy shop minimums. |

Housing changes
The vast majority of college students don’t live in student housing for their entire education, so the places you work and print could change dramatically between your first year of school and your last. An HP wireless-enabled printer allows you to work in a common space and retrieve your documents in your private space—or vice-versa if you’re sharing a printer.
New activities and jobs
Another future consideration: as you become involved with school activities (including everything from sororities and fraternities to political events and band promotion), you’ll probably place an even higher premium on professional-quality color documents.
A high-quality color wireless printer from HP can help you advertise events, show samples of your work, or print beautiful thank you notes to follow up after a job interview.
The future of the planet
Most of HP’s wireless printers are ENERGY STAR® qualified, meaning they meet rigorous energy efficiency guidelines set by the EPA and the U.S. Department of Energy. When looking to purchase an HP printer, be sure to see if it has an Eco Highlights label, detailing additional environmental attributes. |

Print pictures from your phone
Several HP Photosmart printers can create professional-looking color documents by day and become the life of the party at night. Look for HP Photosmart printers equipped with Bluetooth, which are the easiest way to print photos directly from a cell phone or PDA—without a PC.
If you happen to own an Apple iPhone or iPod touch, check out HP’s remarkably simple app, HP iPrint, which doesn’t require Bluetooth or a wireless connection to print the photos on your device.
Use Bluetooth to stay in touch
Sometimes, the spontaneity of pictures taken with a phone produces the best photos. Printing and sending these snapshots can help you stay in touch with relatives living far away—especially those who don’t use e-mail or who might want a picture of you in your new world for their fridge. |
