A new -- and over-the-top cute -- [HP](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/laserjet) 'Happy Baby' commercial features a baby speeding along highways and through traffic while seated in a walker. The child ends up rolling home, where the proud parents are sending photos of the little tyke from their cell phones directly to an [HP photo printer](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/selphy-qx20).

The message behind the HP 'Happy Baby' commercial is that anyone, anywhere can speed photos and documents directly to a Web-connected HP printer using a mobile device. The speeding baby is a metaphor for the convenience of [ePrint](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/eprint) from HP.
