Good riddance HP. I just bought an Epson.

(1.00 out of 5) by abotnick on Oct 16, 2009

Pros: None. HP sucks.
Cons: Poor quality paper feed mechanism. Can't reach all rollers to clean. Slow. Expensive ink.
The Bottom Line: Don't buy this or any other HP printer. This is my second and last photosmart. Poor build quality designed to break after the warranty ends. Expensive ink.

I found all the previous complaints to be accurate with my printer. I'm very soured to HP.&nbs ...

Frequent paper jams, driver incompatible with Word 2007

(2.00 out of 5) by michaelmccain on Jan 30, 2009

Pros: Higher quality than cheap printers, excellent photos, fast
Cons: Driver incompatibility with Word 2007, paper jams, ink-thirsty
The Bottom Line: Avoid buying this printer if you use Office 2007, if you don't tolerate paper jams, and if your annual ink budget is less than the value of the printer.

Great for typical printing of photos and documents although a bit erratic

(4.00 out of 5) by weister42 on Dec 22, 2008

Pros: The prints on glossy paper rivals photo labs, very quick black and white printing.
Cons: Initial software setup failed, noisy, doesn't hold much paper, long start-up time.

For the price it is a very good buy

(4.00 out of 5) by blairsdad on Oct 1, 2008

Pros: Price, print quality, scanned image quality

I have had this printer for about three months and, aside from frequent cartridge changes (my wife h ...

Great printer - difficult installation

(4.00 out of 5) by monkfishy on Aug 26, 2008

Pros: Network capable, auto duplex printing, separate color ink cartridges, built-in card reader, photo paper loader.
Cons: No installation CD or download instructions, difficult setup & configuration, erroneous duplex error message.
The Bottom Line: I recommend this printer if you're able to download and configure the setup software without adequate instructions. The features are worth the effort involved.

This is the 2nd HP printer I've owned, and it's a vast improvement over my old one, which was not a ...
