Well I was really excited about getting the 4880 but I have yet to get the first print off it. The box arrived in good shape but the printer had some broken parts in it and still does not work. The paper cover for the front paper tray was broken and the door and catch for the left side cartridge door was broken. The catch has to be replaced by a tech. Going through the steps of loading the ink cartridges I got error messages and have not yet got it working. So far I would say I am not impressed with Epson quality as all I have is a $2000 printer that still does not work a month after getting it. I hope we can get it working and up and going. Printer was bought new. Or at least it was supposed to be new.Get more detail about Epson Stylus Pro 4880 Printer.

Cheapest HP C6280 Photosmart All-in-One Printer (CC988A#ABA)
I am very disappointed with this printer for the following reasons:
1. Replacement ink is expensive and does not last long.
2. I am held hostage to replace the ink - the printer will stop ALL printing if the cartridge is not replaced in a timely manner.
3. Constant reminders to replace the ink, must press the OK button BEFORE the page will print - I have better things to do than baby-sit my printer.
4. Will not print in black ink only - so there is no way to conserve the expensive color ink.
This is the 3rd HP printer I have purchased. We got 5 to 6 years usage out of the previous two. This one will be replaced with less than 6 months usage and not by another HP printer.

Discount HP LaserJet 4200 - Printer - B/W - laser - Legal, A4 - 1200 dpi x 1200 dpi - up to 33 ppm - capacity: 600 sheets - Parallel
This product stated that it came with a 6 month guarantee, which was part of my decision to buy a refurbished product. When this product arrived, it was in great working order, but it came PEPPERED with disclaimers talking about how it was for parts only and meant to be used only for printer technicians. That was disappointing. Although it seems to run great, I don't think they should send all those disclaimers.They have clearly stated a 6 month guarantee on this equipment and did not say it was for parts in their AD. They make it seem like they are selling it to be used in an office and then SURPRISE, they tell you they aren't guaranteeing it when it arrives in the mail. It is working great, but with all those papers that came with it, I'm holding my breath and waiting for it to break down! :>(Get more detail about HP LaserJet 4200 - Printer - B/W - laser - Legal, A4 - 1200 dpi x 1200 dpi - up to 33 ppm - capacity: 600 sheets - Parallel.

Save HP LaserJet P2015 Printer
These printers performance is excellent for the price, but performance is not an issue. The problem is that these printers have a defective formatter board that tends to fail extremely quickly; if you're lucky it will be within the warranty period. I bought five of these for my office; 3 failed within a two month period after their warranties ran out. Hp support insists this problem does not exist, but just Google "Laserjet P2015 formatter board." By most accounts the failure rate within approximately a year and a half is between 30-50%. It is absolutely unconscionable that HP continues to deny this problem and leave their customers with obviously defective machines. Get more detail about HP LaserJet P2015 Printer (CB366A#ABA).

Lowest Price Epson Stylus Photo R300 Inkjet Printer
I bought this printer back in 2004 at Costco and is still reliable. I use it to print Photo Quality DVD Covers and hight quality pictures. Did I mention I'm a photographer? So quality is a must for me. I have not upgraded to another printer because this printer still meets my needs and continues to make me some money :)
For larger prints I just send the files elsewhere and get the size I need on the paper I choose.

Epson Stylus NX100 All-In-One Decide Now
I was desperate for an emergency printer one day and I bought this one at Target. Of course, the supplied ink ran out really quickly so I bought some non OEM ink from Ebay and it is working out well. Printer uses ink like it is free but I was able to buy 4 x each color from Ebay for under $30.00 and the printer does not give me any flak for doing so. Print quality is slow but good and I love the scan and copy features. Software support is excellent and I like the printer. I had a good experience in the past with Epson and my experience continues with this printer. Epson OEM ink is super expensive, one needs to shop around and make sure that non OEM ink will work in printer. I am satisfied.Get more detail about Epson Stylus NX100 All-In-One.

HP Photosmart 3210 All-in-One Printer, Copier, and Scanner Right now
JUST MY OPINION
HI ALL, DO NOT BUY THIS PRINTER. I have own mine for about 2 1/2 years; and lately it is not stop paper jams or wrong size. Error messages.It was a once an a while deal, but now I can not count on it. Note I have changed paper stock several times and with only HP paper. I have maybe ran 1500 sheets of paper and maybe 80-100 photos. BUT and I mean BUT a good 1/3 of the paper were paper jam. WHEN this printer works, it works well; BUT TO MANY PAPER JAM. I believe for the amount of paper ran through it; it is not old; just by the age. DO NOT BUY!!!!!! AN FOR YOU HP I WANT A NEW PRINTER!! FOR FREE OR I LEAST I BE WILLING TO PAY FOR SHIPPING. thank you for your time. you no believe me; check the internet for the complaint; it affects this unit as a whole.

Samsung Laser Printer (ML-4050N) Order Now
I bought this machine and it works well mechanically, prints well, and prints quickly. The price of toner is a tiny 1 cent per page.
However, if it is printing when the phone rings, I get a high pitched tone on the phone. I tried it with different phones and in different rooms, and continued to get that high-pitched tone. I put filters on the telephones and tried other electronic solutions to block the interference, which occurred even when the printer was in its demo mode, printing while not plugged into my computer.
Their tech support was baffled on this (I probably spoke to a dozen people in vain attempts to fix this), but when I asked if we could replace it with a new unit, they offered to send me only a refurbished unit (possibly one year old), even though mine was only two days old.
I wouldn't rank their tech support as outstanding. Also, although some told me they had never heard of this problem before, a couple of others told me that they had just started hearing of this on other models as well (is information shared in that place?).
This makes me wonder about their engineering. I have an FCC radio license and know something about radio frequency interference. RF interference should be dealt with at its source in the heart of the machine through shielding and other preventive measures, and my guess is that Samsung is skimping in this area, or perhaps they are making too many units with shoddy wiring, where the shield wires are breaking off.
After a week and 15 hours trying to fix this problem, I gave up and sent it back to the mail order place I bought it from. I didn't want to have them send me another unit to play with.
If you can use it without being near your phone, you'll be fine. Otherwise, you'll have a nightmare if you're running a 200-page job and the phone rings.Get more detail about Samsung Laser Printer (ML-4050N).

Dell 1230c Color Laser Printer. Its Small, Beautiful, Fast and Affordable This instant
I'm a fan of Dell products, and this printer is one of the reasons for that. It is affordable in you buy it direct from Dell (about $199) and it is very easy to set up and prepare to use with your computer. It's a little bulky for a small printer and you will need a good space for it. I have a large desk in my home that it sits on.
The quality of the color is phenomenal. Incredible color reproduction. It prints very quickly but I've noticed that it takes a few seconds to warm up to the actual printing. I've also owned a Dell 1110 black and white laser printer, also a great printer, and it's warm up time was about half that of this model.
But, that's ok. I print so little that I don't need it to be super quick. It's a work horse printer that supposedly will eject well over 1000 pages before needing new toner. If there's a real problem with this machine, it's the price for replacing the toner. It's not cheap to replace the four color representations.
It's a great machine, though, and I do recommend it to someone who wants an inexpensive laser color printer.Get more detail about Dell 1230c Color Laser Printer. Its Small, Beautiful, Fast and Affordable.

Brother MFC-5460cn Color Photo Inkjet All-in-One Flatbed with Networking Best Quality
This is a great multifunction unit!
STRENGTHS
-Cost: Try to find it refurbished. I got mine for $40.
-Very fast faxing and scanning with the automatic document feeder (ADF). Most units with an ADF are far more expensive.
-Doubles as a card reader, with a number of card types accepted. It has one-button operation ("Photo Capture") to access the files on the card.
-Programmable scanning modes: You can program 4 quickly-accessible scanning modes (ex: scan in B&W at 400dpi with a pdf output) through the software.
WEAKNESSES
-The unit can be difficult to work with when someone is on the phone line. Sometimes it won't turn on or won't let you perform certain operations.
-The printing quality is okay, but not spectacular. The cartridges are expensive, but I bought off-brand cartridges, which seem to work just fine.
-It has a color and black button, but those are just for copying; it would be great if they were for scanning too.
-The scan quality is not the greatest, but it's good enough for scanning in documents. I've cleaned up my office a lot by scanning in hundreds of pages quickly with the ADF.
Overall, the machine is a steal, if only for the automatic document feeder.Get more detail about Brother MFC-5460cn Color Photo Inkjet All-in-One Flatbed with Networking.

I have had the same problems as the other negative reviewer, with even more problems for a printer that is only about a year old. In addition, when I try to print legal sheets, it invariably jams up after 1 sheer. Talked to HP several times and it was always "you must be doing something wrong." I do know how to put paper in a printer. So I bought another printer to just print legal and continued to use the printer for letter sized printing and a lot of scanning. Then I installed Windows 7, and voila, no drivers for the printer. Printing regular b & w text moves along at about 1 page per minute, with a lot of delay in between pages. Also, the scanner does not work - no Windows 7 driver. Due to a prior software problem where a "fix" was promised for three years and never came, I have little faith in getting the drivers anytime soon. If you like big useless paper weights, you might like it.Get more detail about HP Color LaserJet CM1312nfi MFP - Multifunction ( fax / copier / printer / scanner ) - color - laser - copying (up to): 12 ppm (mono) / 8 ppm (color) - printing (up to): 12 ppm (mono) / 8 ppm (color) - 150 sheets - 36.6 Kbps - Hi-Speed USB, 10/100 Base-TX - remarketed.

HP Officejet 4315 All-in-One Printer/Fax/Scanner/Copier Review
We originally bought this guy as a backup for our Canon scanner, printer, makes lemonade, etc., printer. However, the Canon soon died and well, this one easily adapted to our main computer usage. The guy at Best Buy told us to stick with HP since printers are their specialty and recommended this one. Only thing bad about it is that it really doesn't like it when you use a refilled cartridge over a new one. It will jam on you and tell you it has an obstruction if the cartridge is even slightly off. Caused a lot of stress until HP told us the problem. It's worked great ever since - faxes are particularly easy to send and receive and it feeds multiple sheets at once. If I could change anything it would be the scanner. I'd like one that is flat, like a copier, so I can scan larger items to sell on ebay, i.e. book covers, etc. Other than that, this thing has been going strong for over 2.5 years and is just one of those things you get once in awhile that you're glad you had the help from the salesclerk. Great product - look for the newer version too which is now black. Highly recommend!Get more detail about HP Officejet 4315 All-in-One Printer/Fax/Scanner/Copier (Q8081A#ABA).

One thing not mentioned anywhere is that after 20,000 pages the print head device (PHD) will need replaced. The PHD is a $180 part that can be very difficult to find. This is marketed as a good printer for a small office, but it's just consumer grade junk. Most consumers will never hit 20,000 pages and notice the expensive parts replacements.

Order Kodak EasyShare ESP 9 All-In-One Printer (2252930)
I bought a Kodak ESP9; right off the bat there is no manual. I put it together, and tried to print out a picture. I had to check its quality, since ink is so cheap. I couldn't print it and got an error 1000. Okay I called tech support, and honest to God I spoke with two regular tech's and finally wound up with one of the Supervisors. Only one of the three I could understand well enough. I was told to download a newer software off their site and did all that was required, and tried to print a picture, and it still gave me the same error. We did the ole unplug everything and kick it back on. We rebooted I don't know how many times? Even the Supervisor came in and took over my computer trying to fix the problem. Some six plus (6+) hours later he signs off telling me he is going to give the files he copied to the Engineer. That was on Friday 10/01 because it was the weekend I had to wait for Monday to come around, and I receive an E-mail asking if I would be available on Monday the 5th and I responded that they could. Here it is Tuesday the 6th and haven't heard from anyone yet. Over the weekend I discovered that I got some other errors. Such as "Printer doesn't recognize ink cartridges" Papers edge not found, wouldn't accept card stock, nor could I print business cards. It took numerous tries' and on pure white card stock before would it accept to print business cards. I can't figure out how to lighten the light or darkness of a document being copied or scanned. If it is printed front & back. The light on the scanner is such that it will bleed through and I get a revered copy of what is on the side that is not being copied, and it prints crooked and really slow. I haven't had near the problems that I have read other people having with tech support, but I am only a newbie to this.
