Good

I use this unit almost as often as a scanner as I do for its printing capabilities. I have used HP products often in the past and have found them to be reliable so I was confident that this multi function unit would be a good purchase. As far as...

Well known brand, easy to install and use

Ink carteidges seem to run out very quickly, always use much more black ink than colour ink (more than 2:1 ratio), quite slow page rate.

OK

The low price of this HP multifunction bubblejet printer was the key deciding factor in purchasing it. I have had positive experiences with HP products previously so thought it would be a good purchase. Overall I happy with the print quality and speed...

Relatively quick printing speed, good picture quality. Exremely affordable and multifunction adds value.

Ink seems to be used up very quickly even with just moderate use, ink not available in many places I have looked for it and/or have been out of stock when I wanted it. Has cumbersome software which frequently asks to update.

Terrible

I would not know what it's ink consumption is like because I've had it a week and it has only managed to succesfully print 5 pages so far... VERY frustrating, and I would highly recommend people AVOID this product. I'm taking it back tomorrow and...

It was cheap. No doubt about it, it was cheap.

It keeps saying it's jammed, and sometimes it is, chewing a small hole in the paper, and then spitting it out. Occasionally it will print one without a hassle for no apparent reason and then will say it is jammed again.

OK

I guess your overall opinion on this machine is going to be based on what you expect. I already have a decent mono laser, however I wanted the flexibility to do the occasional scan and colour print (e.g. cards, etc...). This machine is great for that....

Very cheap

Printing is slow, cheap feel to the actual machine, I'm expecting the ink to run out quickly and be expensive to replace

Bad

For anyone using their printer for regular full colour prints stay away from HP! Too expensive and drinks the ink at an alarming rate.

Inexpensive purchase price

Ink cartridge replacement costs almost as much as the printer!

Terrible

This printer is so slow you would be quicker handwriting what you want to print or drawing the picture if its a scanned photograph. This printer took more than 15 minutes to scan and print a simple photogrph and 3 minutes to print an A4 word document...

Looks like a nice printer

Extremely slow scanning and printing.

Bad

My one is an F2180 all in one and it is white, not black as in the photo. I was drawn to this model mostly due to its very low price but i have learnt that you Do get what you pay for. This printer is slow to install and use, its loud, ink doesnt last...

Very cheap for an all in one

Very slow (claim is something like 16 pages per minute. Thats a lie - i would be lucky to get 5 pages in a minute, even in black and white). Introductory print cartridge did not last very long. Software installation was VERY long, as if it was some...
