About Us
When the Hewlett-Packard Company (HP) was founded in 1939, the world was a very different place. There were no fully electronic computers. The only printers were industrial-sized printing presses. Palo Alto, California was composed mostly of fruit orchards. The internet was decades away from fruition.
The storied history of HP coincides with the development of home computing and the rise of Silicon Valley. HP’s innovations were instrumental in making home computers and printers more affordable for the average consumer, and their success inspired a wave of electronics companies to start-up in Santa Clara County, California. Everyone wanted to hang out in HP’s neck of the woods.
Note: The printer must be connected to the network with Internet access during the setup process, so that the printer can communicate with the HP server and complete the setup process. Even after completing the setup, the printer will need to be connected to the network with internet access and the printer should stay online and communicate with the server. If the printer does not stay online and fails to communicate with the printer for a long time, the printer will stop printing after printing a certain number of pages, even if there are enough toner in the printer. The printer will print again after reconnecting to the HP server or after going online.

Good Keyboard Great Feel

- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 13 November 2024Style Name: Black Wireless KeyboardVerified PurchaseFit for purpose. Looks original and good quality. Reasonable battery life as well.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 16 July 2022Style Name: Keyboard + Wireless MouseVerified PurchaseThese devices do the job well and I have two sets, one for when I work at home and another I keep in my locker to use in the office. This means I don't have to use the hotdesk keyboards which sometimes feel like a health hazard.
The keyboard offers the right depth of key movement for me, I don't like those that are too flat. It's it's slightly smaller than some but not cramped, like a laptop keyboard. Because I use this all the time, I have become used to the relative positions of the various keys around the QWERTY keys so find them easily (having different keyboards was a distraction).
The mouse also feels just right.
This doesn't feel like a premium, typist's keyboard with those satisfying big keys, but it's a good compromise, for me.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 13 March 2023Style Name: Black Wireless KeyboardVerified PurchaseBought this to replace a wired Microsoft keyboard, fancied trying the wireless option.
The layouts are near identical so an easy transition and not having to plug it in is a bonus.
However, the keys are little more noisy, not as softly damped as I would have liked but the biggest issue is the flimsy nature of the keyboard.
I don't hammer the keyboard but I've certainly noticed how flimsy the keyboard is as it bounces up and down as a type. The feet underneath are spread far apart and need more support so I've added some thick adhesive felt underneath in the center to reduce the spring.
The rake of the keyboard with the tabs at the back to lift it also aren't that big, I would have preferred more of a tilted angle to the keyboard, it's still pretty flat with the tabs deployed.
For that reason it can't be a 5 star but it was good value.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 6 September 2020Style Name: Keyboard + Wireless MouseVerified PurchaseI bought this set for my kids computer and it does the job. This particular set is not for gaming etc but for home computing this set is quite good and reliable.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 18 August 2021Style Name: Keyboard + Wireless MouseVerified PurchaseWant a wireless keyboard that constantly misses or ignores keystrokes, leading to frustrating errors? Want clunky keys that feel heavy to use and slow down your typing speed while making tons of noise? Want to have zero ergonomic satisfaction as the flimsy feet snap and prevent you from placing the keyboard at anything approaching a comfortable angle?
Want to pair that with a mouse that eats two AAA Duracell batteries a week by constantly leaving its laser on instead of optimising battery drain by only activating the laser when there's movement? Want that constant laser to ruin your desk unless you're using a mouse mat? Want a scroll wheel that constantly registers an up movement when you stop scrolling down, meaning you have to compensate and over scroll every time?
If that sounds like you, buy this absolute piece of crap! I guarantee you'll be thoroughly disappointed and regret your purchase!
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 1 August 2022Style Name: Black Wireless KeyboardVerified PurchaseAs a full time professional writer, I wear out keyboards. I work on a desktop PC with a big monitor, and even though I have a laptop too, I hate its cramped keyboard. My previous HP plug-in keyboard was fabulous - solid, big enough to be very comfortable to type on at warp speed, and able to be tilted to just the right height. I honestly thought that I was buying a similar replacement, only to find that this is flimsy, light, feels smaller overall, and although the height can be raised a little, the old one had two possible height adjustments. This one doesn't and it's wrong for me. The price is probably too low for the kind of keyboard I wanted which is my fault for not checking - but this came well reviewed. If you are using your keyboard for anything except basic day to day emails etc, this is probably not for you. I'll use it with the laptop and try to find a better and more ergonomic keyboard before I start the new book. My hands feel cramped and awkward on this one (and I don't have big hands!) - 80,00 words later, I can imagine I'll have real problems!
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 21 April 2023Style Name: Black Wireless KeyboardVerified PurchaseThis is the cheapest wireless keyboard I’ve seen for a well known brand. I’ve had the same keyboard at home when I was still a child and it’s nostalgic to own it again after this many years. I think it serves it’s function and has amazing quality for it’s price. The keys feels really nice to press on and produces a good sound. Very smooth for 99% of times.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 26 April 2022Style Name: Black Wireless KeyboardVerified PurchaseI've switched many keyboards over the years, the HP K2500 is not only my favourite, but also the cheapest, at only £12. I would have preferred a bluetooth version to save me having to use up a USB socket on my computer, but I couldn't find a bluetooth version of this. And ultimately the 'feel' is more important than the bluetooth. Amazon's display and the pack outside (unnervingly) shows an American version (with US layout and single height return key) but it's a proper UK one inside, complete with the double-height return key I'm used to. I bought another one from Ryman's and it turned out to be a Mac layout (with " and @ interchanged, which was annoying). But this one from Amazon is the real deal. Did I say it was amazing value at only £12?

5.0 out of 5 stars Excelente custo-benefício
Style Name: Keyboard + Wireless MouseVerified PurchaseProduto excelente em relação ao custo-benefício. As teclas são macias e não fazem tanto ruído, é um som até tranquilo de ouvir, não irrita as pessoas que estão ao redor enquanto precisamos digitar. Além disso, funciona perfeitamente. Antes de comprar vi em alguns comentários a preocupação das pessoas em relação ao modelo do teclado, se contém ou não a tecla Ç e a resposta é sim.
Além disso, o mouse também tem o clique macio e assim como o teclado, responde prontamente aos comandos. Estou amando!
