    Duration of ownership:

    Strengths: Wireless capability, duplexing, ADF, Faxing, Photos, 6 ink cartridges, color lcd screen, card slots.

    Weaknesses: 100 Sheet Paper tray

    Overall Evaluation: I love this printer. I got a great deal on it from Staples a few months ago when they substituted it for the C7180. I love the wireless feature and the duplexing. The only downfall IMO is the small paper tray, would have liked a bigger one.

    Duration of ownership:2 Weeks

    Strengths: It has every feature available and it's easy to use!

    Weaknesses: CD installation took over an hour, I'm running Vista Ultimate, 3Gig CPU with 3Gig RAM. I would also like it if this printer was a laser printer instead of ink jet.

    Overall Evaluation: I purchased this printer to replace another ink jet printer and fax machine. I installed this printer and fell in love with it, it has all the feature you would ever want in an all-in-one printer (Print, Fax, Scan, Bluetooth, Wired and Wireless Networking, just to name a few). HP also did a nice job ensuring that all these features were easy to use and at a push of a button.

    Duration of ownership:

    Strengths: Full featured.

    Weaknesses: Loud, slow duplexer.

    Overall Evaluation: This printer has pretty much all the features you want. A copier, scanner, fax, and of course, printer. The addons are a nice duplexer which lets you automatically print on both sides of the page, but the disadvantage is that once it prints on one side, it has to wait for the ink to dry before printing on the back. The machine is also pretty loud compared to other printers. Excellent photo quality though, and cheap ink.

    Duration of ownership:14 Days

    Strengths: Has all the features I wanted

    Weaknesses: The software is a nightmare. It eats up 90% or more of your cpu while doing nothing. It takes days to install.

    Overall Evaluation: I was sold on all the features but did not listen to others saying stay away from this printer. HP tech's taking control of my computer took over 8 hours to get this printer installed on my laptop. ExPro SP2 up to date. The software on both my laptop and pc takes better than 90% of my cpu. HP could not fix this and said they would call me back in a day. Thanks HP, I have spent more than three days of my own time on this installation and I can work my day around you calling my back in a 24 hour window. If you check your task manager and see svchost.exe running at 90% it is the HP software sucking up your cpu.
