    Hi.

    I bought an HP Envy 120e printer a week or so ago, while i am happy at the printer the driver is very basic, for years i have been use to Epson and Samsung Graphical Drivers with lots of option when this HP driver seems very basic to me is this normal?

    Below is a link to the printer i bought, it has wifi i can download apps to it, but the Windows driver is crap basically.

    i've had an old hp inkjet all in one thing, can confirm it had a ton of options. maybe you got just the bare driver installed? it has driver or driver + a bunch of software.

    print -> print properties is where i'd get all of the option, paper sizes, formatting filters etc. etc.
