Each time I buy one, I say "never again", but then I buy one anyway. This is not the first HP printer that I have owned. True This all-in-one printer frequently malfunctions! One warning: the ink is very water-soluble don't let your product get caught in the lightest rain you'll have a mess. It will take a while, but it's still pretty impressive. I will acknowledge that it does a good job of "figuring something out" if you ask it to print something with a color it doesn't have. And, if one is empty, you have to override it, even if you're not using the absent color. I have NEVER seen a printer that sucks ink the way this one does. The variety of memory cards you can use is good, but not complete. It's mildly annoying that all the options don't show up on the screen if you don't realize that you have to scroll to the TOP, you'll miss some. The options for scanning are truly impressive. Whether I'm printing photos, scanning documents or just making copies, it's terrific. I have never been so impressed with the quality of an all-in-one. True Hp Photosmart all-in-one gives great quality expensive per unit ![]() Like all machines, it has its faults, but overall its a good buy. I like the copy feature and have never had any problems with that - it makes crystal clear copies. It was very annoying and frustrating, but for everyday, simple print jobs, it works just fine. The biggest problem I've had is trying to get it to print on different sized paper - the printer doesn't recognize it, or on some sizes just can't print at all. I have the printer hooked up to a wireless network, and sometimes it tells me the printer isn't on or isn't working when it is, and can't give me any answers when I troubleshoot. The scan function works well, but it's a pain to get the program to run. It does a pretty good job on photo prints, and I love that it has a separate tray specifically for 5x7 photo paper. It prints out fast, whether it's prining in black and white or color. I've had the HP Photosmart C7280 all-in-one for two or three years now, and it fulfills most of my everyday printing needs. I guess if you get this machine really cheap or given to you, then you'll be okay with it - otherwise, do more homework and find something better.įalse I Love My HP Photosmart C7280 !!!!!! Who really faxes that much anymore anyway? It is cheaper and eliminates the need for a fax machine. No bother for a fax anymore, just go online and use an electronic fax. I would rather have a scanner and a printer. Just way too big! I don't like the idea of 3 in 1 printers actually. ![]() Have you ever gotten a document from someone and it is a picture of a document? Takes up way to much space in your email and doesn't print well. This printer/scanner/fax makes you save everything as a photo. I had to resort to plugging in my old HP scanner (3570C) and scan just so I could save to Word. You must get an OCR program and pray it works. The other (non) feature of this printer is that you cannot scan to Word. To do the smart thing, one should have at least two sets of cartridges on hand at all times. It is very inconvenient though to have to replace individual cartridges because it will stop printing when it runs out of one. It has individual ink cartridges for each color and a separate one for black - all with the idea of being more economical. ![]() This printer though, to me, is just average. I don't think you can get any better hardware than HP. they have come a long way since the 90's. True HP Photosmart C7280 may not be so smart.Īs far as HP goes. All-in-all I highly recommend this product as a perfect addition to any home office. They do cost a little more, but the cartridges last quite a bit longer. Granted this does tend to use up the ink cartridges pretty fast, but you can find these at a reasonable price if you shop around and recently I have found that they are making the ink cartridges as XL cartridges. The prints look exactly like what you would receive from having them developed in a store and the price is considerably less, if you produce as many photographs as I do. My most favorite quality of this machine is the photograph printer. Copying is a breeze in both color and black and white on this machine. This printer handles the scan and fax functions very well and it is very easy to program for the fax function. I expecially like how easy it is to change the ink cartridges without having to contort your arms to reach them and release and reposition them. Very easy to use and the instruction manual and help function provide you with the answers to any questions that you may have. ![]() I have always liked Hewlett Packer printers, but this all-in-one is outstanding.
