"Good printer, took forever to install."
Pros: Decent print quality. Not the first choice for photos, but this is really more of an all-around printer for a small office. Rated it Good, because of confusing sales ploy, which does not allow all features in each version.
Cons: Took over 2 hours to install software and printer on an XP pro machine.
Base model does NOT have wireless networking ability and also does NOT have the larger LCD screen.
Separate Printheads is a huge negative which adds to lifetime printer cost.Summary: MY main beef is that they have 3 versions of ... read more

"Out of control ink usage to get a decent quality copy."
Pros: When on best settings, the quality is fantastic.
Cons: The color cartridges are EXTREMELY expensive, and they do not last. The promise is 1400-2200 pages per catridge--this is only true if you publish everything in draft mode, which you could not pass out as a newsletter or a flyer.
Summary: I have owned this machine for 3 weeks. I hav... read more

"A Great Product! Love the Features!"
Pros: I love the Touch Screen and use it a lot for printing right from a thumb drive. Love the ability to instantly scan to E-mail. Larger cartirges. Auto Feeder works great, good picture to text conversion. Works great with all paper types!
Cons: Software is bulky with addons like "Buy HP inks" that take 100MB. Paper recieving tray does not work well with Legal paper. Does not do Borderless with Plain Paper (but if you just select Photo paper it still works fine).
Summary: I love this product! Good for the home. Sav... read more

"Worthless actually refering to the Premier version"
Pros: Lovely design and appears to have great features. That is the end of a short list. Great paper weight or major environmental hazard if you throw it out the window in frustration.
Cons: Features don't work! Second paper tray (per tech support) isn't supposed to be used with faxing or copying even though user manual insinuates it can be.
Poor tech support and customer service with limited knowledge about the product.Summary: I wanted a product that was easy to use, intu... read more

"Great Product, Just be sure to pay the right price."
Pros: Very easy setup performs exactly as advertised. Excellent print quality and low printing cost if you buy the large ink refills.
Cons: This thing is big! Had to put it on the dresser in the guest bedroom to find enough space.
Summary: Prices are all over the place on this multifu... read more
