HP Photosmart D7260 review

 

HP's D7260 is an aggressively priced printer with some extra features

Full of features ; Top notch value for money

Some quality limitations

Excellent for direct printing from memory cards but print speed is a little pedestrian and colour rendition isn't quite up to Canon and Epson standards

Consumer review (newegg.com)

Prints clear images.

 

I was given some free photo paper of off brand and it would not feed or jammed. HP paper worked perfectly.

Separate ink for black and each color as well as two extra color inks

Picky about feeding off brand photo paper

This printer rocks!

 

I can't believe how good this thing functions for the price I paid! I have yet to phase the ink levels and I have printed about 100 pages of b/w and about 10 high-quality photos and the levels are still at the top! The touch screen and card-reader...

Amazing print quality, fast in all modes i.m.o., multiple cartridge design allows user to change only the color that is low, touchscreen with print/edit capability, LAN port, long ink life on draft mode, built in card reader. Oh, and if you were...

It's white so it doesn't match any computer I own/have owned since 1988!! Seriously though, nothing really! Some people might not like the little warm-up cycle, but if it helps quality I don't care

Great Printer for the Price

 

Driver installation via HP cd on the 1st networked pc (Vista HP) was a snap but driver installation on the 2nd pc (Vista Ultm) was a PITA. Finally after comparing printer preferences on the 2 systems I realized that the incorrect driver was installed...

Very decent 4x6 photos. Great for a cheap network printer. Seems to be well built

Plain paper text printing could be better. For some reason getting the proper driver installed on a 2nd Vista (Ultimate) system on my home network was a bit of a pain. Blank pages would print at the start of a print job and in between multi page...

The hardware is willing but the software is weak

 

I bought this printer to replace a disfunctional Epson printer. Thank you HP for making a printer that works, and almost does what I need it to.

Nice appearance. Touch-sensitive display. Ink cartridges can be replaced by preschooler. Excellent print life when using Vivera ink.

Buggy and feature-deficient device driver with lousy documentation. Ink cartridges are very expensive and run out quickly. Printer driver does not

I bought this printer to replace a disfunctional Epson printer. Thank you HP for making a printer that works, and almost does what I need it to. HP's Vivera ink may make prints last a long time, but it's very expensive. When printing at maximum dpi, I...

Buggy and feature-deficient device driver with lousy documentation. Ink cartridges are very expensive and run out quickly. Printer driver does not ; allow Photoshop or Windows to do color management, and the printer's color management is really lame....

Good Printer

 

I bought this from NewEgg and was not disappointed. It came on time as expected and undamaged. It would be nice if HP would include a USB cable, but I had one on hand from another printer I replaced.

Easy to set up if you follow the instructions closely. Prints photos very well with good color and clarity. I like the 6 cartridges so you only replace that which is empty. Speed seems good and unit is pretty quiet. I am using Vista Home Premium and it...

None so far

Great printer at an awesome price!

 

Overall, an amazing bargain!

I bought this primarily for printing photos. My old HP deskjet just wasn't cutting it anymore.

This thing is HUGE! I read the reviews here on Newegg that said it was big, but it's hard to grasp until you see it in person. Easily the biggest printer I've ever had, it barely fits in the spot my old printer easily sat in. As a result, I do not have...

good at this price

 

overall, an excellent printer especially at this price. if you're looking for a good printer without breaking the bank, this is it!

low cost, has ethernet port, uses seperate ink tanks for different colors. photo tray works well. touchscreen is pretty cool too!! this printer is a hell of a lot faster than my old photosmart 7350

on startup, printer needs to prep which takes 1-2 minutes (and wakes my wife up LOL). it's pretty big, so make sure you check the specs and see if you have room for it ; driver settings may be a little confusing for less experienced users

Product Satisfaction

 

The digital camera memory card slots are very compatible with my cameras,and being able to print your pictures from the touch screen attatched to the printer rather than just your computer, is a really cool feature! This printer is a steal for the price.

Fast printing, easy to operate, extremely good color, and precise lines in picture quality. Color touch screen is very helpful and convenient. Very easy product installation, and amazing accompanying software. Thanks for the fast shipping also
