HP Envy AIO Printers is one of HP’s latest home desktop printers, designed by its Global Experience Design Group to be one of the user-friendliest printers yet.
HP Envy AIO Printers was awarded a 2021 Good Design Award by The Chicago Athenaeum: Museum of Architecture and Design and The European Centre for Architecture Art Design and Urban Studies.
Printing should be as easy as playing media at home, yet for most families, printer setup and reliable printing can be a challenge.
Therefore, the design team set out to deliver a consistent setup, use, and connectivity experience for all home users, regardless of devices and type of connection.
The new HP All-in-One printer family embodies that philosophy.
The design challenge was to create an AIO (All-in-One) Printer family that is more based on the Internet-of-Things (IOT) while fitting in seamlessly with the modern home lifestyle—a device that is proudly displayed rather than hidden away.
It designed with an automatic document feeder (ADF), multi-page scanning, and automated smart task features for productivity.
The design aesthetic is made up of simple forms and is compact and minimal with rounded edges to create a comfortable aesthetic to blend into the home environment.
An intuitive and helpful UI appears when needed which allows users to concentrate on their tasks and not the device.
The Envy printers were designed to be part of the connected ecosystem in modern homes and further extend HP’s eco initiative to improve sustainability as the printers are made from up to 20% recycled plastic.
