    Duration of ownership:

    Strengths: Very fast and the best print quality on any printer I have ever had. Ink is very simple to load which is the best part about the printer for me, since I had many problems with Epson prior.

    Weaknesses: No USB wire

    Overall Evaluation: Very fast and the best print quality of any printer I have ever had. Ink is very simple to load which is the best part about the printer for me, since I had many problems with Epson printers in the past where you had to press a button and nothing the printers never moved to the right spot to load. All you have to do it open the cover and the ink moves to the right spot to change the ink. I will now only buy HP printers because of the product.

    Strengths: Very Cheap Good Machine

    Weaknesses: Its a bit on the heavy side

    Overall Evaluation: The HP DeskJet 5150 Is a fine Inkjet Printer, Ive been using it for college and its blazing fast, alsmost like a laser printer, It's pretty quiet too, The only negative; Its pretty heavey, and it's quite large, but if you don;t move your printer around too much and you have some extra space in your dorm room its a perfect printer especially for this price, Make sure it comes with print cartidges.

    Duration of ownership:

    Strengths: Easy to set up, good print output.

    Weaknesses: Didn't come with a USB cable, slow printing.

    Overall Evaluation: I am forever sold on HP printers. They have served me well - I have two other printers as well. This one appears to be real solid and has good output, although it is a little slow. I had some problems with the drivers and had to uninstall them and reinstall from the web. That is the only reason that this gets 4 stars - otherwise, I would give it 5 stars. It is a great value (although print cartridges are always over priced, and a USB cable included would have been nice). HP has the best inkjets.

    Strengths: ez install, #1 rating, flawless prints

    Weaknesses: large size

    Overall Evaluation: The product has awesome prints. Was rated number one by a leading PC periodical (you will see this on the box), easy trouble free hookup on my XP configuration. The only flaw I found was that with the tray extended it is a bit large

    Duration of ownership:

    Strengths: Print quality at draft setting is fine, while normal setting and above produces quite good results. Picture qulity is also high.

    Weaknesses: Noisy

    Overall Evaluation: I needed a printer to replace my just broken-down HP882C. I have a separate printer for photos, a Canon S820, which produces photo-print quality. I needed one for letters, along with graphics that don't require photo quality. This printer, the HP5150, meets those requirements. The print quality is excellent, and the picture quality on regular paper is quite good. Having the printer for only one day, I have not had the chance to try it in it's photo-quality mode, and having the other printer, I might not ever. For the money, though, this printer more than does the job. The only negative, as stated above, is the noise this printer makes. It doen't sound too solid, but I doubt that it isn't. This printer is definetly worth the money.
