(1 out of 5)My mistake
This printer has been a nightmare. First I can not use
my Visioneer scanner. They say it is not compatable.
I removed a jammed paper, and since then anything I print,
such as invoices, checks and such, come out with blotched
printing and paper tears. I get NO help from technical
support(They're learning). No 800 number, which means you
have to call CA on your buck.
I used to swear by HP. Now I am convinced that their
products are close to junk. My opinion is STAY AWAY!
(1 out of 5)Poor customer support
The printer worked fine for about a year (no borderless prints though). After 15 months it started jamming every single time that I tried to print. I expected a ... repair bill (replace the roller) since the printer is out of warranty. According to HP, no 1215 printer can be repaired. Their only option is an exchange. They will send you a new HP 1215 for [price] (retail is [price]) and you return your old one. Apart from a ... coupon this is the ONLY option. Buyer beware.
(5 out of 5)Greatest printer I have ever used!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I recieved this printer for Christmas and I have to tell you this is the best printer I have ever used!It took me longer to take it out of the box than it took to set it up. No joke. I find it to print slow but that is not a big deal with me. The print quality is amzing. I have to admit I was extremely skeptical when people told me that the picture quality was as good as pictures from a normal camera.Printers take up lot of think though. I must say the ink is not cheap. I don't print pictures that often becuase of the ink price. But honestly you could not tell the difference between something printed on this printer and a normal photo. The only possible upgrade I could think for this printer is borderless prints. It looks very cool too but it's a bit bulky. It is like a computer. It actually asks you questions while you print stuff. Don't pay 300.00 bucks for it. Buy it off Ebay.com. That is where my family got it. We payed 130.00 dollars for it and that it with shipping. Great deal. It was not refurbished either. It was brand new. Even came with a printer cable too. They have plenty left on there so go get one. One of the best computer purchases of my life. Setup was extremely easy! You can plug it in via printer cable or usb! It comes with the usb cord. I am using it via usb. When I plugged it in Windows XP automatically detected it asnd installed it. No software or anything! Guys buy it!
You won't regret it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
(5 out of 5)Best Computer Acessory
A year and a half ago, I purchased everything I needed for my first computer. I did a lot of research and went way wrong with highly recommended Dell computer. But, based on what I could see at the store (the clerks at CompUSA are not too eager to help) I bought this printer. It has been the best purchase of my computing experience. Photos are flawless, as is everything else I print with this printer. It seeems to do what it is supposed to and musch more incredibly well.
(5 out of 5)Fantastic Photo Printer
This has been a great printer for me. I regularly print both 4x6 and letter size photos. The quality is outstanding, and the automatic paper sensor is a good feature. I had absolutely no problems with set up. The only improvement would be to print borderless.
