User Reviews for HP Photosmart 7760 Color Inkjet Printer (HP (Hewlett-Packard)-Q3015A)

  • Reviewed by: doucompute

    Duration of ownership:

    Strengths: decent prints

    Weaknesses: Failed to operate after 1 year with little use and plugged into surge protector

    Overall Evaluation: This is the third hp printer I have purchased. It will be the last. I had this printer for 1 year and 8 days and it sits on top of the other hp Photosmart printers that also failed within a year. I purchased this unit at Walmart for $179.00 because my other hp failed and needed to print a contract that day. I liked the idea of card reader and the lcd screen. Now I'm after a printer that I will not have to replace once a year. The inks are extremely expensive in comparison to Canons or Epsons inks. The reason for this is there are three colors in one tank so when one color is out you have to discard it. You never get the use out of all the ink your paying for. Stick with printers that you replace the color that goes out (separate ink tanks). Customer support does pick-up fast but when they do nothing for you 8 days out of warranty-what good does fast support do!! They said they would give me a deal on a new printer?? Lets just say in 2.5 years I gave them $600.00 on what I believed to be a quality product..If they sent me a free printer I would send it back!! Junk is Junk!! I usually make my purchases towards the top of the line late model units.. and spend the money figuring it will be a better built unit?! If any of their units last mich longer than a year it certainly wasnt these 3 hp's. Keep in mind that these units had very limited use as well.. I could maybe deal with it better if it was a work horse.. This unit was lucky if it printed more than 75 pages!!!!!!!! If you are in the market for a printer I have done plenty of research this time. I have read 100's of reviews on photo printers. From professional and from users of people who have had operation for in excess of a year.. Everyone loves their printer at first so those were not taken in consideration.. The models That I would recommend for photo printers are as follows: Canon IP8500- and the Canon I9900 for wide carriage for large 13x19 prints these units don't have card readers or bling but they are 8 color printers or The Epson r800 and wide carriage R1800 also prints directly on cddvd. The people who own these units are extremely pleased.. Todays products are not tested well and I'm considering hp to be at the top of the pile.. I will purchase the I9900 today they are considered to be a workhorse with no ink clogs and turns on when the button is pushed. These units again were well taken care of and plugged into surge protectors....

    Duration of ownership:

    Strengths: Makes perfect color photos!

    Weaknesses: The High price of the ink.

    Overall Evaluation: This printer is very easy to set up. HP has always had the best printers, as far as I am concerned. The pictures it prints out have perfect crisp colors and the black text is clean and crisp also. I would definitely buy this printer again. But I do wish the ink wasn't so expensive. My last printer was a HP 812C and I loved it, but unfortunetly it finally died on me, and I wanted to buy another just like it, but couldn't find one.

    Duration of ownership:

    Strengths: Printer itself is inexpensive

    Weaknesses: Too expensive to keep

    Overall Evaluation: I bought this printer when it?s on sale. It?s almost free after a few rebates. So I?m happy with whatever it offers. Actually the printing quality is excellent. However, I know I wouldn?t keep it too long since it?s very costly to buy the inks.

    Duration of ownership:

    Strengths: High photo quality; fast speed

    Weaknesses: ink expensive

    Overall Evaluation: I bought this photosmart printer about eight months ago. It was a very nice printer for photos. The quality is pretty good. For the price I paid, it?s well worth it. However, as with all photo printers, the ink costs too much. I stopped using it after the ink ran out.

    Weaknesses: Tray is too small and it only takes about 20 card at a time.it takes little time to dry

    Overall Evaluation: Compared with printers of its kind, I will definitely pick HP 7760. It is easy to use. It prints high quality paper. It is quiet. Its price is affordable.
