I have just bought a HP Printer due to my printer just packing up on me, well its been going for a while and I have been putting up with it until I could afford a new one and this is the one I bought from Curry's.
This printer is compatible with Windows 7, Windows XP which is what I have as well as with Windows Vista its easy to set up and comes with a handy instruction booklet which ids easy to follow.
Plug it in, connect the wires and add the disc and it installs the drivers and you just follow the on screen instructions. You have to buy the USB lead separately, but it's available from online for a few pounds.
It comes with a black cartridge, instruction booklet, paper tray cover and power cord. It prints on paper, does photo's and prints on envelopes as well as labels, postcards and prints on A4 A5 A6 and B5 which about covers everything you might need to print on.
It holds 250 sheets of paper and feeds the paper in when you have told it how many you want, I use it a lot to do my paperwork and invoices for work. I find it easy to use and the print is good quality, it do a few copies of my books at each time I use it.
It says in the instruction manual that it prints each page by seven seconds, which is about right and it isn't too noisy either, my old one could be heard downstairs when I was in my office at home and it took a while for each page, this is a lot faster.
Although the price is a bit steep it is worth the money as it is a handy machine for someone like me who is self employed and has to keep accounts, invoices and records of employment for the tax man. It also prints on both sides of the paper, so this saves money and it has an auotmatic power saver built in.
if your looking to buy then this is a good option, a useful tool which is compatible with lots of computers. It gets an 8 out of ten from me. I also can buy the cartridges from Cartridge World where they are cheaper than normal priced cartridges, thus saving a little more money.
They only come in black so theres not a choice there, but it is a stylish model. You can also get online support from HP if you have any problems with your printer.
So far Ii have had no problems with mine, it is easy to use, was easy to install and I have printed documents, copied photo's from my computer which have been very good quality and have used it for my files and invoices for my work at home. All the family use it for their printing and my daughter even emails me files to print off for her, so its a good all rounder
