bad usb connection on P1000 [Posted on 2003-10-21]
I really liked this printer when I first got it about 3 years ago. Sure it was loud and a little slow, but it printed pretty good. Well, after about 1 1/2 years of VERY light duty, I all of a sudden start getting error messages on my PC telling me the printer is not connected to the computer. First I changed the cord to no avail, then I tried different open USB ports on my computer, so it ends up I just have to position the USB cable perfectly to the back of the P1000 to get it to work. At least it would still work, right? Well that got me by for about six months and now it just will not connect at all. Now my HP P1000 has a nice new home in the trashcan and I'm giving Canon a try. If HP puts as much thought into printers as they do computers I definetely don't want to buy another HP product again...
Good prints... bad compatibility [Posted on 2004-02-06]
I've had the P1000 for a couple of years. Worked great with WindowsME. After installing XP on my desktop I had to reinstall the printer software to get it to work. Just got a new laptop and it doesn't work at all.. in fact, the P1000 causes my Dell Inspiron to crash whenever I disconnect the USB cable. When the cable is connected the laptop never recognizes the printer.
Ok printer for the price [Posted on 2004-09-09]
I bought this printer 3 years ago. It works great. The only problems are: the power cord has a short in it, the ink is pricy, not enough memory, freezes up, and sometimes will print lines or it will smear. I like HP printers and think I will stick with HP for a long time. I am going to up-grade to the HP laserjet 4050N or 1300N because of our home network. I think this model has some defects but in the newer printers HP has fixed them.
it works....i guess [Posted on 2006-08-17]
This thing works sometimes, and its cheep. Other then that I don't have much good too say about it. It uses up the ink in the expensive cartridges like water. And is so noisy it sounds like a truck going off road. I've owned quite a few cheep HP ink jet printers, and I've been disappointed by them all. I am going with Epson or paying a little more for a higher model HP. In the print world, you get what you pay for and buying cheep is a bad idea.
Workhorse that does want to give out [Posted on 2007-01-09]
The only things that has worked harder for me is my Maytag washer. Honest!
I have printed perhaps 4oo to 5oo great photos in 8x10 and several hundred 4x6. I printed simple signs that earned more than the coast of the printer, all the ink used and paper. I am on my 3rd case of plane paper, plus heavy weight paper.
I have use it with the usb cable and the printer cable. The small photo tray worked well after I surrendered and read and followed the instructions.
I have had my P1000 for 5 years or more...I have gone through several PCs, am on my 3rd scanner and have tossed two printers in the dump...one a wide print photo oriendted HP, the other that came "free" with another PC.
I considered buying a new one (or two) on Amazon 2 years ago for ?..$75/00 if a member correctly.
I have been able to download software that enables we to use it on XP home edition. The HP software worked well for me. Also have been using photoshop 6.
I have given away numbeous framed photos to frineds and family printed on it and had the pleasure of seeing people enjoy them.
I doesn't give up. There many be better printers. I am still looking and also am holding on to this HP P1000...I also have a Canon i9900 which is working out well enough.
And I just might get another P100. Anyone want a HP 3845? Free! The trash men wount be here until Thursday (2 days)
