Product Description

From the Manufacturer

With the compact HP PSC 1510 All-in-One, everyone in the home can print, copy and scan in true-to-life color and laser-quality black. An intuitive control panel and eight one-touch buttons make it simple to create color or black-and-white copies up to 8.5 by 11 inches, and enlarge and resize photos for framing.

Print photos without a PC by connecting a PictBridge-enabled camera to the printer's front USB port. Or use your PC and included HP Image Zone software to organize, edit and print photos with or without borders up to 8.5-by-24-inch panorama. Share photos by e-mail using HP Instant Share technology. Print and copy in optional 6-ink color (requires separate purchase of HP 99 Photo Inkjet Cartridge), with HP Vivera Inks and 4800-optimized dpi (when printing from a computer, with 1200-input dpi), and get true-to-life photos that resist fading for generations (on HP premium Plus photo papers using optional HP 99 Photo Inkjet Cartridge) and archived text documents that retain clarity for decades.

4.0 out of 5 stars Nice printer for low volume work, September 18, 2005

This review is from: HP Psc 1510 All-in-one Printer (Office Product)

This printer installed easily and functions nicely in every way. My only complaint is that the ink cartridges, while very inexpensive, contain very little ink. If you're doing occasional printing, scanning or copying this is a great printer. If you expect to print more than 1000 pages per month, be prepared to change the cartridge as often as your undies.

Did I mention that its a fine printer?

2.0 out of 5 stars This printer has a secret, December 18, 2005

This review is from: HP Psc 1510 All-in-one Printer (Office Product)

I read all your reviews and I was amazed to find that most people thought it was a good printer. After I purchased one, I found several things that troubled me.

First, the program for the printer has a secret. It installs another user into your system. I thought something was weird when I had to log in to my computer, which was a single user system (Win XP). There were other changes to my system that I can only explain as glitches. For some reason, this affected a few programs and I will probably end up un-installing and re-installing most of them including my antivirus software. It stopped the scheduled scanning the day I installed this program. What a coincidence.

There were other issues... Although the print preview works, it does not truly print the same as the preview. It's always a little off center. There were issues with the paper I was using and this printer would not let me use any type of odd sizes no matter what adjustments I made. The photo itself was not as good as a real photo - pretty close, but not better. If you clicked on the help feature, the program took you to a web page. This would have been fine except that the last "\" should have been "/" so I kept getting a "This page cannot be displayed." error. If I corrected the "/", the page worked perfectly.

I must give credit to the HP support desk. They admitted that the program does create another user (and that I could delete it without issue). They tried to help me with the other issues and were very fast with replies but I am only willing to un-install and re-install the program 3 times (which is what I did). In the end, I think they knew that they could not help me and gave up.

I printed about 30-40 photos and ran out of the tri-color ink. That was the final straw and I will be returning this printer never to buy another HP printer again.

After re-reading the other reviews I thought I bought a lemon but after three installs with the same results, it must be something else.

If you decide to buy... good luck.

5.0 out of 5 stars Exactly What I Was Looking For, August 24, 2005

By 

Jennifer "Mom Of One" (Florence, KY United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: HP Psc 1510 All-in-one Printer (Office Product)

My old printer was on its last leg so I had been on the hunt for a replacement for about a month. I use mine for a home based business so I didn't want to spend a ton of money nor did I want to end up with a piece of junk either. You all know the saying "you get what you pay for", well that does not ring true with this printer. I only paid $89.99, which is really cheap for an all-in-one unit, and I would have gladly paid more had I known how wonderful it was going to be! Installation was a breeze, however I did make a slight error during the print alignment part of the installation process but was able to log on to the HP website and chat live with a customer service rep who helped me fix the mistake in no time at all. I love the size of this machine, it isn't bulky at all, and fits perfectly on the shelf under my desk. I like the fact that I can hook my digital camera right into the printer which makes it easy to print my photos in a hurry. I am impressed with the quality of the pictures, they are beautiful; the colors are so crisp and clear, it's like I had them developed at a photo-center. Even better is the fact that the print cartridges are under $20 a piece, not the case with my old printer, they were over $25 a piece, ouch! As for longevity, so far I haven't had any problems; there hasn't been any paper jams, nor any software malfunctions that other reviewers have reported with the older version of this printer. Bottom line is if you are looking for a printer for personal use or for a home based business like myself then this printer is exactly what you are looking for. You just can't beat its quality for such a small price tag!
