The beat printer ever!!!!! [Posted on 2001-12-07] It prints so clear and takes all 3 types of memory. I love the fact you can take it with you and insert the memory card and get your pictures.NO WAITING!!! ITS COOL!!!
This is a fantastic printer- for all our needs! [Posted on 2002-01-06] We had an old HP inkjet that was on it's last legs. As we had gotten a 3+ megapixel Sony digital camera recently, we were looking for something that could print photos AND documents, but not be 1000s of dollars. I looked at the Canon S800 and this printer. I had started out looking at Epson, but had heard from friends and family that they wouldn't recommend one. I'll be honest, the Canon was a VERY close second! But the ability to use our memory stick and the fact that it's compatible with Windows XP was a big selling point for us. I needed a photo for a 12 month calendar (present) and we put in the memory stick in and printed the photo ASAP on our coffee table as we hadn't even hooked it up to our computer. It worked wonderful- you would just have to be careful not to scratch the surface. In setting up with the computer, it took about 15 minutes and my husband said "USB is the way to go." All in all, it was the downloading of software that took the most time, but it was easy. I highly recommend this printer and have told my family and friends about it. Yes, it's pricey, but if you can afford it, it's worth it. Also, the documents print great and the colors on the photos are true to form.
Poor customer support [Posted on 2002-01-26] I'm very disappointed in Hewlett Packard as a company. My printer arrived missing parts December 24th. I have called HP Tech 3 times and was assured they would send the part right out to me. It's now January 25th and I still haven't received anything. In my opinion there are too many other manufactures who want my business, I don't need to deal with this kind of customer support.
Easy to use, fantastic results [Posted on 2002-01-28] I bought this printer after seeing a friends digital photographs printed from the same model. The results are fantastic, as good as any 35mm pictures I have had developed. The true magic of this printer is it does not need to be connected to a computer. A computer phobic could use this printer. I simply put the sony memory stick in the printer and can edit and print the pictures. The printer even arranges the picture on the photogrphic paper before priting which makes it extremely economical with paprer. Used with a computer a USB connection is recommended for equally excellent results. The other bonus of the printer is the ease of installation and use. I had the printer up and running in minutes and quickly worked out how to print my photograph with out using the manual.
Not enough info [Posted on 2002-03-27] I had tested the Hp 950 and the Hp 1315 for print quailty. Altough the HP 950 is a multi-task printer it has the same resolution,dpi, and just about the same ppm. I find HP print quailty is far superior in regards to richness of color and most important, the life feel it brings to the picture.The Hp 1315 is at best the number one"photo-smart" printer on the market ,however,the technology which is being used is not discussed and secondly the warranty compared to it's conterparts leaves a lot to be desired. One year suggests" I might brake down in 16 months". Hp confidence in this product in regards to their warranty is not good enough.
