This printer is my 3rd or 4th HP and the first one that did not throw a tantrum if it ran out of paper during a big print job! It set up on our easily on our wireless network, prints B&W fast. Color printing is on the slow side, but it turns out very well. Photos print up beautifully. Seems to be good on ink.

The HP Software is bothersome. It works just fine but there is always something popping up, to tell me it just printed, how much ink is left, etc. If I were using my first computer, it would be useful. I am an advanced user, so i find it to be extremely annoying.

I recommend this product to buy.This is really a good printer to do everything..I just connected with my laptap and able to scan and print from my laptop...Its too good for this price..

I really happy to buy this printer. Super performance and output.Very slick and easy to use.

I was unsatisfied with the photo printing quality of this printer. The photos came out very pixellated. One of my pictures had the sun in it through the trees. Where the washed out part meets the trees, the picture noticeably loses detail. It's also redder by far than the actual file from which it was printed. Moreover, the blue sky's fade, which is smooth and gradual in the photograph, is grainy in the printed picture.

I intend to return this printer as soon as I can.

I purchased this printer to replace a HP PSC 750. It is a pretty good printer, especially for how much I paid for it. My only complaint is that the screen is kind of small. Other than that, I love it. Prints great pictures and the colors are fantastic.
