HP is the best!

I just ordered one of these and I know It will work perfectly and it matches my computer color which is also an HP.

I have owned a previous ALL-IN-ONE from HP and the scan quality is the best. I recently bought an C*n*n(the pbs commercials) printer and it failed within 2 months of ownership. While my previous all in one failed in about 2 years (bad environment) for...

HP Deskjet F4180 CB584A Up to 20 ppm 4800 x 1200 dpi Thermal Inkjet MFC / All-In-One Color Printer

If you print a lot you'll run out of ink fast (duh) but the cartridges are a little small, no big problem go to hp.com or staples and get the cartridges that could do 500 pages if you're that crazy about it.

prints fast comes in handy when you need to get that 15 page paper and 30 page reading printed out, great quality prints pictures perfect, you could get the vivera inks for "better longer photos" but I didn't notice any difference, holds 100 sheets of...

Good Value

This printer matches my HP laptop, i don't care though, it's hooked up to my desktop. I also want to mention i don't like the paper tray, the paper that has printed rests on the top of the paper waiting to be printed. Nothing has double fed, but, i...

I have been a cannon (Photo) & HP (General use) purchaser for a long time, but i was amazed to see that my old ink for my HP was going to be more than buying a new printer! I am glad i did! The scanner is an added bonus. the clearity on photos is...

Wow was the ink hard to install. I had to read (Look at the pictures) to install it. I felt like i was going to break the ink holder. I also would like to note that HP doesn't ship an A-B cable...what the deuce! it's a $3 cable here, why can't they...

Beyond Cost Effective.

More than worth the price.

Fast, fairly quite, and very good quality scans and prints. The printer and scanner was quite impressive, as was its very convenient software. But that wasnt what impressed me most about this fully functuinal, high quality device.... I was shocked by...

They were too cheap to give you a usb cord. No worries though. Its a standard usb device cable. Not one of the ones that come with mp3 playrs, the usb a to b type. A kind commonly used with external harddrives etc. Squarish connector on one end, usb...

Great multi-function printer

Everything is in the box. Even the USB cable, which some companies make you buy separately. The install disk covers everything from scanner to printer, and features a neat auto-alignment process where it prints a special page, then you scan that page,...

I bought it last year for almost one hundred dollars. It prints great home/business pages that make other printers choke - it prints Word and Excel docs easy as pie and if you load 4x6 or 5x7 or 8x10 photo paper and make the right selection of photo...

Very light in weight, don't know if it would stand any rough treatment, but if you put it somewhere safe and leave it alone, you will be fine. The aforementioned lack of card slots may be an issue, but HP has plenty of other models that do

Not too bad

Kinda bulky, but if you got the room its not a problem. I did just buy a new hp dv9500t so I got this printer for 50 bucks off so I think its a great value for 20 bucks lol, but even for 700 or 80 bucks its a good deal.

Looks great, if you have a newer HP laptop with the radiance finish it will match this printer (printer doesnt have a glossy coat though). Prints really fast, super easy set up

Doesn't come with the cable needed, but you can order it here on Newegg for 10 bucks cheaper than the HP store. This printer is the same price here as in the HP store. Very loud, not a problem for me, but if your trying to print in a room full of angry...
