Customer Reviews
I just bought this printer and it wasn't what I expected. I had an Epson Picturemate that I liked quite a lot, but it died after about a year and a half. I thought I would go back to HP and get an upgrade to at least as good quality, better reliability, and 5x7 photos to boot.
Setup was easy and I was printing from Mac iPhoto in about 20 minutes. But unfortunately the first photo that I tried to print was taken in difficult lighting conditions. Nonetheless it looks good on the screen and there is lots of interesting green and brown vegetation in dark areas of the picture. On the screen it looks good, but on the printer the dark areas of vegetation just washed together into mostly black. I tried aligning again, full cleaning procedure, and online tech support. The Tech had me try moving the photo back to a memory card. That actually helped for some reason and I get some detail in the dark vegetation, but now the green clothing is washed out.
I tried the sample photo from HP and it looks great. I tried another photo and it looks good - brighter than the original with reds enhanced from the original. I kind of liked the original authentic colors but I could get used to these enhanced ones.
I'm disappointed that this printer doesn't reproduce faithfully the pictures on my computer. But it does seem to produce pictures taken with good lighting with a vivid quality that I hope I'll grow to love. And I do like being able to print 5x7's at home, and I also like to be able to purchase ink and paper separately which one cannot do with the PictureMate.
I purchased this printer for my wife along with her first digital camera. She is a complete techno novice. She has never used a computer. She was able to set up the printer, print photos and use the editing features on her own the first day she had it. The photo quailty and speed is impressive. The unit stores convieniently ans it has a great look and feel.
