It won't stay connected to the wireless, even when I assigned it a static address, and will not connect to the computer with any reliability except when hooked up via USB (and thereby defeating the purpose of a wireless printer).

After trying multiple solutions over several months (AirPlay, direct driver install, delete/reinstall, static IP address, reserved DHCP address, etc), sometimes it will print a PDF immediately, sometimes it will take up to 4 minutes/page which defeats the entire purpose of having a laser printer.

So what use is it to have three printers all with the same name (cannot differentiate which is which) and all with dynamic IP addresses?

Printer continually loses its IP address for the wireless.

I am computer literate and did everything suggested by HP - static IP address, changing the wireless channel, updating firmware, etc

Consumers complaints were not being addressed, and so, HP decided, for no explainable reason, not to provide an updated driver for the HP 1012

Well my experience with this printer has sent me back to HP, as it died after just 3 months.

We've had multiple problems with the initial wireless setup not working as it is supposed to

We did have a power outage which required the printer to be turned on manually, once that was done, everything works as it should.

It has been in use now for quite a long time and works just as good as when it ws first purchased.

The first page prints almost instantly and each subsequent page spits out as fast as you could ever want

They have been nearly trouble-free, and don't jam nearly as often as the printers they replaced
