Mobile Printers/Your experience

Hello, everyone!
I'm going to buy a mobile printer, but not sure which is better. As I'm a great fan of HP production, I became very interested in HP OfficeJet H470 Mobile Printer as I saw as the best pick in the review. So, I have some questions and hope you'll help me!
Will it scan / copy legal?

Does this printer work with Windows 7? 

How about its Bluetooth capability?
Any advice will be pretty appreciated, thanks!

1. Yes it should scan and copy Legal Size paper, since it doesn't use a traditional paper tray, but rather the old-school style where the paper is loose on the top tray. This means there's no length restriction. Same for t NO - it won't scan or copy anything. It's just a printer. You can PRINT Legal size paper though.

2. Yes it will work with Windows 7

3. Not sure what your question is - The Bluetooth will work with Windows 7+ certainly. FYI, the Bluetooth connectivity is provided by a separate add-on dongle that is sold separately. You will need to purchase this dongle if you want Bluetooth (WIFI dongle is also an option).

 

I mean, it'll be alright. Mobile Printers in general kind of suck, but reviews look decent for it.

The last time I saw someone with a mobile printer was like 10 years ago. They are extremely bulky and they're mostly for those who needs their printed documents right away while on the go. Don't need your printed docs right away, then look for printers that can do e-print. This lets you print what you want and your documents will be there when you get home or your office.

Indeed, e-print is a great alternative for someone who needs to send a print-job on the go, but doesn't actually need to get that piece of paper until they get back to the office.
