The HP PSC 2175 is PC and Mac compatible with USB connectivity and comes with everything you'll need to get started. HP backs this product with it's standard 1 year warranty on parts and labor.
What's in the Box
HP PSC 2175 all-in-one, HP 56 black inkjet print cartridge (19 ml) C6656A, HP 57 tri-color inkjet print cartridge (17 ml) C6657A, power cord, setup poster and reference guide, HP Photo & Imaging software, HP Memories disc creator software on CD-ROM
It's very user friendly and gives very good copies and photos. We had the older PSC 750 w/ its photo editing software. I was pleased to see that HP has tweaked the software and improved the "remove red eye" function.
We own a HP computer w/ memory card slots. I think it's one of the best features of the computer. I'm looking forward to being able to use the printer in the same way. No more fussing w/ a USB cable and the software.(...)
I bought this printer last year. Since then, I only have frustration and more frustration trying to use this printer. HP offers one year warranty on this printer. I'd prefer not to have any warranty at all. I've contacted HP tech support and they keep sending (shipping) defective printer after defective printer to me. Not to mention countless hours on the phone trying to solve the problem.
There's a GRINDING sound every time I turn on the printer. It says, align cartridge. The GRINDING sound continues until it says SCANNER failure.
I've always used HP products, but after the experience with this printer, I'll think twice. The funny thing is, before buying this printer I came to this page to read the reviews. I liked it. Now I am stuck with this problem because I found the reviews helpful. What's going on? How come it works for you and not for me?
HTH,
a sincere reviewer!
I also found sometimes when I would connect the printer it would freeze my computer all together and it wouldn't respond to any keystrokes or mouse commands.
I am sick of outsourced support that just recommends doing stuff to buy time so they can get you off the phone. They were completely unable to solve my problem and I returned the printer back to Amazon.
I am a software engineer and know the symptoms probably are an interrupt problem with communication between the printer and the computer. Beware of this printer and its horrible software.
I was connected to a technician quickly. He was very patient and knowledgeable and ran me through a number of checks to see what was wrong. It turned out that I had to return the unit (yes, a bummer), but HP made that easy. They sent me a new one within 5 days. All I had to do was set up the new one, put the old one in the box the new one came in, and slap on the UPS label to return it.
While I would have preferred to avoid the above hassle, HP was exceedingly professional and responsive. And, my replacement unit works great. I love it!
If you're not into printing photos for framing at home, no problem, this printer is fantastic at being a simple inkjet printer. It's very fast printing color documents, and extremely fast at plain black text (faster than my samsung laser). It also does something that I've wanted inkjets to do for a long time: self alignment. It has some sort of light (laser or otherwise???) detection device inside that allows it to print a page of lines and patterns, scan them for alignment and adjust itself for optimal printing. Gone are the days of pinting out a sheet, squinting to decide whether line 13 or 14 is the best and then typing the numbers into a form in a dialouge box. It uses the same amount of ink and paper as the old method, but with no demands on you. I was kindof dreading aligning the cartridges, so when it did it on it's own, I just about fell out of my chair!!
I also love the fact that it has a multiple type memory card reader built in. You just plug your memory card from your digicam or whatever into the printer and suddenly you have an extra drive letter on your machine which you can write to and from fairly quickly.
The scanner is also fantastic. You put something on the flatbed, you hit the scanner button on the printer, it gets a list of photo-editing software from your computer and asks which program you'd like to send the scan to, you select one and hit the color or b&w start button. That's it! It's such a great feature to be able to send the scan to PhotoShop without even having to touch the computer.
In closing I'll just tell you that this is my first electronics review on this site. I don't write about things that I just got (bought this printer around 2 months ago, and have used it heavily since) or that are so-so in quality. I was totally blown away by the quality of this printer, especially for the price they're asking. The more expensive versions include a color LCD screen for computer-less photo printing and a fax machine.... so pick your model to suit your needs... but pick an HP PSC 2100 model of some type... if they're all like this one you're gonna love it.
It's a pleasure. The design is excellent. Scanning, copying and printing are more than acceptable. The machine is suprisingly quiet. For those of you who are on the verge, take the plunge. If you're going to fax frequently, go for the 2210.
Congratulations to HP on this vastly improved design.
It's an "all-in-one" device that does printing, scanning and coping (color or black/white). It hooks up to your PC or notebook.
The print quality is excellent, especially for photos (I was pleasantly surprised with the incredible quality of the color photos - you'll be able to print color photos just as good as the camera store)
The copier is excellent and I especially like the fact it's a "flat-bed" style copier/scanner. There are some Copiers that only let you copy a piece of paper, but this device is like a normal office copy machine (but much, much smaller) where you can lift the lid up and place a book on top of it, which is useful if you need to copy a page from a book you own, like your cookbook or hiking book. I can now keep my cookbook in good condition and don't have to carry a heavy hiking or touring book on a trip - I just bring a copy of the pages I need for a trip. I recently found this very useful when touring a city. In fact, it was so useful that I'm going to look into eBooks for my iPAQ for trips. With this printer, you can scan a page from a hardcopy book in order to get it into your hand-held (by scanning it into your PC and then moving it to your hand-held). Though I would prefer to buy eBooks software for my iPAQ that has this information organized like a library.
The scanner works very well. It's especially useful if you want to scan something important into your PC to save forever. I tend to collect a lot of papers, so this scanner really helps me cut down on the amount of space I'm was using to save hardcopy papers. This scanner lets me toss out papers I would normally be saving, so no more growing heaps of piles of papers on my desk. I scan papers into my PC for storage and then toss the paper out.
The unit is conveniently small, and yet it can copy up to A4 size paper (which is larger than legal paper). Sizewise, it fits nicely on my small one-drawer filing cabinet where I used to keep my LaserJet 6L, and there's still room for my large conferencing phone.
Now that I have a copier, I no longer have to run to work or Kinko's to make a copy of my tax forms. Too many times I've left important personal papers at our copier at work (embarrassing!)
After buying the product, I discovered it has a really neat feature that I now use all the time: it supports four different types of memory cards (CompactFlash, SD, SmartMedia, and Memory Stick.)
I have a digital camera and an HP iPAQ 2215, which both use CompactFlash card. This means, I can take my CompactFlash card from either my camera or iPAQ and pop it into the printer and print photos without bothering with the PC. It's fast & easy. I really like it.
My iPAQ 2215 acts like a portable photoalbumn sometimes, so it's nice to be able to print photos out by simply popping the CompactFlash card into the printer. This printer is a great gift for your Mom & Dad if they like to get a lot of photos from you. When you visit your parents, you can show them your photos stored on your iPAQ and print out the ones they want by popping the compact flash into the printer. It's as easy as that and it's photo quality too.
You can upload your photos from either an iPAQ or camera to your PC by simply popping the compact flash into the printer and pressing Scan to PC. I find this useful when I want to have a large view of my photos stored on my iPAQ - I move them to my PC from the iPAQ by popping the compact flash into the printer. I find this easier than hooking my camera up to the PC (where the photos originate.) (I don't always have my camera plugged into my PC, so find it easier to pop the CompactFlash into the printer rather than hooking up the camera.)
It's a very easy printer to use and to install - just pop the CD in and click "okay" and plug in the cord.
A few small things I wish it had (though, no other printers on the market seem to have this either, so it's minor): I wish I could plug my Creative Labs camera directly into the front of the printer. I also wish iPAQ 2215 could plug directly into the front of the printer so I could print the photos or files directly stored on my iPAQ. (But this isn't critical because I can do it anyway by just popping the iPAQ's compactflash into the printer). But one thing I wish it had: I would love to be able to plug a Memory ThumbDrive (by USB2) into the front of the printer in order to directly print photos stored on the ThumbDrive. (A thumbdrive is a tiny stick that fits onto a key chain - you can plug into any PC by a USB2 connection - it's like a miniature, portable hard drive.) Basically, all three of these ideas would involve HP designing a USB2 input into the front of their printers (something I would think they could easily do, but for some reason, no printer on the market does this yet.) These three ideas are items no printer seems to do, so it's minor. And I can print from my ThumbDrive by simply plugging it into my PC or laptop.
After doing comparison shopping, I found this all-in-one printer, copier, and scanner to be the best device on the market and it's very inexpensive for all you get. I'm really happy with this product and just love it!
This is an excellent printer, copier, and scanner - you can't go wrong with it.
Hope my comments have been informative.
