1.0 out of 5 stars Save your money - DO NOT buy this "printer", April 30, 2009

By	Geoff Southworth - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I own a HP computer- so I thought when I needed a printer to also buy a HP - maybe they could talk to each other. Mistake #1. I purchased this "printer" in September 2008 and have since gotten to learn how to uninstall & reinstall the printer several times a week. The little light on the front burned out (after 3 months) and can not be fixed (HP support agreed). However, it is ONLY this little light that tells the machine you have cleared the paper jam, or that you have refilled the paper. So now, EVERY SINGLE TIME I need to refill the paper (because I forgot to load it daily) I get to uninstall & reinstall. If I get any type of jam, I get to uninstall & reinstall. If anything happens - including putting in new ink cartridges - I get to uninstall & reinstall. AND HP Support agrees this is my only option, other than buying another "printer." The machine does not recognize original HP ink cartridges, so the machine can never tell you the estimated ink level and frequently I get error messages of "not corect cartridge." And you can guess how I get to clear this message (uninstall again, reboot computer, reinstall printer).
Yes I have gotten quick at doing this, but still it is not an enjoyable task to having to do several times a week, because you bought this "printer!"
I am only waiting until I exhaust my inventory of those expensive ink cartridges until I dispose of this piece of trash. I hope Amazon prints this, although I admit I did not buy this thing from them.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good basic printer, December 2, 2009

The reason I selected this printer is for the fact that the paper is enclosed in a covered area rather than just being left out open on a paper-feed tray. This helps keep the paper from becoming damaged by having the edges bent which would cause paper jams or the paper becoming dirty. (you'd be amazed at how many people eat stuff while hanging around the office printer while waiting for their documents to print.)

This is one quality "Photo" printer! It will handel heavy duty paper. Whats weird is it will also grab 2 or 3 sheets of regular paper. I have been amazed and people who I have givem them too think they are real photographs.
Also has special "ink" for doing just photo's.
