Facilities for daily activities
HP Envy 6432e has a modern design
HP Envy 6432e is a model with a classic design that responds to classic dimensions, more precisely 432.5 x 361.1 x 174 mm, while its total weight is 6.15 kilograms. To obtain a quick and easy operation directly, an intelligent control panel has been integrated with touch panels that ignore the traditional physical buttons on its upper face.
When it comes to working faster, the addition of a 35-page automatic feeder makes it easy to organize print jobs, scan or copies when there are many documents to work with. While, the input tray holds 100 sheets in A4 size, while its output is 25 sheets.
Like little, to save large quantities of paper, it is possible to access an automatic two-sided printing function. Its operation basically uses two ink cartridges, one black and the other multicolored, which allow an approximate autonomy of 120 pages for the first and. 75 pages (of course using official compatible HP cartridges) for the second before needing a refill.
Performance in multifunction tasks
Turning to the performance area, when printing it is feasible to achieve a maximum monthly duty cycle of 1000 pages, offering a maximum resolution in black / white 1200 x 1200 dpi and optimized up to 4800 x 1200 dpi in color. The operating speed is up to 10 and 7 ppm respectively, while a maximum waiting time of 53 seconds is required for photographs.
When it comes to copies, it is possible to obtain up to nine per document with a resolution up to 300 x 300 dpi and speeds of 8 cpm in black and 4 cpm in color, while for scanning the classic CIS technology is used with a supported area of 215.9 x 297 mm and support for image enlargement from 25% to 400%. Its official figures indicate a resolution of 1200 x 1200 dpi and speed of 2.8 ipm.
In conclusion, HP Envy 6432e also does not forget the faxing function with a transmission speed of 14.4 kbps, cloud storage-based fax memory and forwarding capability.
In general, there are almost no differences with what was seen in the previously released HP Envy 6422 model, so choose one or the other should only be decided in relation to the best price that can be found.
Support for wireless connectivity
HP Envy 6432e uses two ink cartridges
It is worth noting that this printer facilitates a simple configuration with step-by-step guides to connect without problems to any device.
