Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I've been using a Canon BJC-250 for the past 5 years. I go Windows XP and the Canon doesn't work anymore. I was forced to buy a new printer. I saw the DPI resolution on this printer, which is the same as any other printer costing much more than this one. This was a tremendous change for me! I have never seen a better image come out of a printer in my life! Very detailed, very flowing. There are some exceptions to the printing. Buildings that are smaller can actually look blotchy on the photo paper, while water turns out perfect. Also, when printing out multiple pages, I've had the printer actually jam quite a few times. I've used maybe 20 pieces of paper, and 4 have jammed, two of them in a row. Other than these incidents, it does turn out to be a very worthy printer for the price. It is XP compatible and can be hooked up with the computer still on.You are not forced to buy the USB cable.If you already have a cable for your LPT Printer port, it will work also.I am using the LPT port.The printer is also quite large for what I'm used to (see dimensions).Make sure you'll have enough room for it on your desk.Paper loads from the bottom, not the top like my old printer, and can hold up to 100 sheets.This makes it easier than having to constantly reload the darn thing.After a few weeks, the jamming has stopped.Maybe the printer just needed to be broke in.You must install both ink cartridges with this printer (black and color).This is also new to me, with the Canon I had to constantly change cartridges; another perk from HP.The printer also takes quite a while to "warm up."Instead of just hitting the print button and watching it print, it takes maybe 1-2 minutes (depending on how long it has sat idle) to warm up before printing.It is quite loud when warming up and loading the first sheet of paper.After the first sheet is loaded, it's *amazingly* quiet.(Remember, I used to have a 1998 Canon!This is super cool by my standards!)The speed is something to be proud of, as well.Although warm up time can take a little bit longer, after it gets going, it's running very well!A nice high DPI photograph can take up to 1 minute to print at about 800dpi.I haven't tried it any higher yet.Black pages...maybe 10 seconds, if even that!!I changed my rating from 4 stars (on March 17) to 5 stars (on March 21) because the paper jams have stopped.Don't think you need a new printer?For this price, you deserve one anyways!Order one now!
