The HP ENVY 4500 Printer Driver is built for reliable everyday use, offering high-quality printing, scanning, and copying. It supports wireless, USB, and Wi‑Fi Direct connections. With features like HP ePrint and AirPrint, users can send print jobs from mobile devices, making home or office printing more flexible, efficient, and accessible without relying on a computer for every task.

The HP ENVY 4500 Printer Driver features automatic duplex printing and HP Instant Ink support to reduce waste and cost. Its user-friendly display, software, tools, and mobile apps streamline setup, manage print jobs, and simplify routine tasks efficiently.

Smart connectivity and mobile support

Wireless setup features make the HP ENVY 4500 Printer Driver easy to integrate into existing networks. Wi‑Fi Direct and mobile print options allow printing without a router, which is ideal for small workgroups. The printer supports AirPrint, Google Cloud Print, and HP ePrint, making it versatile and accessible across devices. The HP Smart app enhances functionality, enabling job previews, scanning from your phone, and monitoring ink levels effortlessly.

Despite its compact size, this all-in-one printer delivers sharp textual documents and vibrant photo prints up to 8.5 × 14 inches. Scanning produces clear, detailed images suitable for archiving or sharing. It handles a variety of media, including plain paper, photo paper, envelopes, labels, and even windows, making it a reliable and versatile performer for both home office tasks and creative printing projects with consistent quality.

While functional, this printer has a few limitations. Its printing speed remains modest, around 10 ppm for black and 7 ppm for color, which may slow down large print jobs. The use of all-in-one cartridges can lead to higher running costs, especially compared to tank-based systems. Additionally, photo print quality may fall short of dedicated photo printers, particularly on glossy media.
