 Downloading Express Labeler 3.2 June 30, 2008

It is seems to be a good printer but unless HP can sort out the downloading of Roxio Express Labeler Software for direct printing on CDs and DVDs it will need to be returned. This was the main reason for choosing this model. It appears to be an out of date version of the software anyway. The only way you can upgrade is by buying an expensive package( 40 - 50). The more dealings I have with Roxio the less I trust them

What a right old carry on I had trying to install this old baby! After installing and un-installing this printer from the disc that came with it, I eventually had to trawl through the HP website to find the relevant drivers. The printer and copier seemed to work ok, but could I get it to scan? Could I heck as like. Anyway, after spending about 2 hours messing about, Bullseye...in the back of the net...Job done.
Now it's all sorted everything seems to be ok. It replaced a 7762 Photosmart pinter that became redundant after I bought a desk top (HP) with Vista on it. I'm not convinced the quality is any better, but it performs well, and is easy enough to use.
I can't say don't buy one, but be prepared for a long old slog in installing it if you do...just be patient!
 great little machine March 26, 2008

I've only had my photosmart for about a month or so, and haven't tried all the functions. But so far it's been doing a great job printing and copying in black and white and colour. Installing it was very easy, although it doesn't come with a USB cable which is a shame! It would have been nice to just plug and play. Instead you have to waste time getting the cable first.
My favourite feature is the 'copy to print' function for photos. You just put your photo on the glass tray, close the cover, push the button and photosmart makes a perfect copy of your photo, on photopaper.
 HP Slipping in Quality March 4, 2008

I picked 2 of these printers up from my local wholesaler at 69.99 each, based on the previous reviews I'd read.. BIG MISTAKE!
The 1st, I attempted to install on my brand new Quad Core machine running Windows Vista. The installer wouldn't pick up the printer when I plugged it in, instead Windows reported that the device wasn't recognized, and had malfunctioned. I searched the Internet looking for possible solutions, all to no avail.
The 2nd, I tried installing on a Laptop running Windows XP SP2. Everything seemed to install correctly, and the test page printed fine. "Great!" I thought. Until it came to wanting to print a document, and it just wouldn't.. The print job seemingly wasn't even loading. Again, I looked for possible solutions online and nothing worked.
Both printers are now boxed up, waiting to be taken back. The printer itself looks very pleasing to the eye, but the drivers and hardware just don't live up to expectations.. I'm now looking for replacements, but everywhere I go I seem to be reading the same opinion that HP are slipping in quality. Great shame, because my 940c DeskJet is still running strong and is a fantastic printer!
Linux-friendly printer February 6, 2008

The main reason I bought a this printer is that HP is one of the few companies to provide drivers for Linux. Rather than using the HP device manager, I found it easier to configure using CUPS direct. The printer functions perfectly. Having read expert reviews about the poor quality of its text printing, I was surprised to find it superior to my previous Epson and Lexmark models. Its photocopies are more than satisfactory and its colour prints even better. The build quality is good - far better than that of the Lexmark X4550 (bought by a friend). I paid 72.88 for the C5280 at Amazon, when everywhere else it retailed for over 99. A happy Linux customer.
