HP Portable Printers






The portable printers have become increasingly popular over the last decades, especially for business men and for students who study in countries or regions far away from home;




the first could use these portable gadgets, alongside laptop computers or notebooks, to carry their most important office documents in a personalized backpack or bag in their frequent travels and professional journeys while students can use them to do their college or university homework and search for all types of information with a simple click and connectivity to the internet. It is better to link these electronic devices with a wireless network even if sometimes the very small and wireless products are costly.

The great advantage of the portable electronics stands in their main feature; they are small and can be handled in all traveling conditions. But there are some very important characteristics the portable devices, not only printer, should have.


The portability is the first important one and the small gadgets are used in general for specific purposes; among these machines we find listed no only the laptop computers or notebooks with the laptop-related devices but also the mobile phones or the newly invented Ipad from Apple.

No matter how good the printing quality might be, if the portable printers don’t have the feature of being light weight then their success can not be guaranteed. Being light-weighted, these devices can be carried in their special designed bags, water and dust resistant with an extra storage room for other important things such as cables, power cords, battery packs, or the coat pockets.

These printers may be small but they print at fast and efficient speeds, having the ink savings incorporated in their internal structure with highly developed and reliable software and drivers so the technical problems are not that common. Some of these printers have speeds up to 25 pages per minute in black and white or 20 in color and the HP portable printers are one good example.

Almost all electronic devices developed for sharing information and long distance communication such as the laptops and printers have UDB devices incorporated in them and this is why another important feature about them is the connectivity, wireless or with wires, using the Bluetooth system or WiFi connections.

The portable devices are expensive and before buying one type of portable printer you should compare its main features with other products and see if is cost-effective; not only these products are pricey but also the accessories we have mentioned about such as the special bags or the ink cartridges.


The offers of portable printers, especially from appreciated manufacturers such as HP or Canon, are numerous and by visiting they official internet homepages you can actually view the designs of those products, read more about those product’s characteristics and compare prices, which is a very important step before actually buying or ordering one.

In the specialized electronic stores you can find these devices at discounted prices and if you order them from the company’s site you should prepare for extra expenses, especially the shipment fees, and the possibility of receiving that product not on time.

One of the most popular portable printer series made by HP is the HP Officejet H470 Mobile Printer which is lightweight, rugged and compact and prints from PDAs, PCs, mobile phone cameras or any other types of cameras and memory cards.

The HP Officejet H470b Mobile printer and the HP Officejet H470wbt Mobile Printer have the same features as the ones mentioned above, plus a long-lasting lithium-ion battery, the latter having a wireless connectivity. The HP Officejet H470 printer series can be found at prices ranging from around 200 US dollars to 350 US dollars.

You can compare the prices of the HP all-in-ones and single-function inkjet or laserjet portable printers by visiting the HP official homepage or by searching these products in specialized electronic stores.
