HP Printer

HP, legally known as HP Inc., is one of the most iconic technology brands in the world. Originally founded by Bill Hewlett and David Packard in a garage in Palo Alto, California, in 1939, the company became a pioneer of the Silicon Valley electronics industry.

While the brand's research and development remain heavily rooted in the United States, its manufacturing operations are global. HP printers and hardware are typically manufactured in multiple countries, including China, Vietnam, Thailand, and Malaysia, to serve international markets efficiently. In 2015, the original Hewlett-Packard Company split into two entities: HP Inc. (focusing on personal systems and printers) and Hewlett Packard Enterprise (focusing on business services).

Today, HP Inc. remains a publicly traded American corporation and the ultimate owner of the HP brand for consumer electronics. The brand continues to lead the market in printing solutions and personal computing, maintaining its headquarters in Palo Alto, California.
