HP C6280 Photosmart All-in-One Printer (CC988A#ABA) Reviews
But I can't believe the sudden price jump to $199.99 on Amazon. It is still only $149.99 plus tax, with free shipping, when ordered directly from the HP site.
He had it out of the box and I was printing with it within a half hour. So I concluded that it didn't give any problems during a simple installation. One can print graph paper, music staffs, mazes and a variety of ruled paper sheets. . I then decided to print some 4 x 6 photos with it. I think if you like HP products, this one would be a good one at a good price. It has a separate little container for photo paper.
My son came over to visit and I mentioned that I had got a new printer but hadn't taken the time to install it (I secretly hoped he would volunteer to do it). I purchased the HP Photosmart C6280 recently and was waiting for time to hook it up to my computer (XP). It took approximately 90 seconds to get a good quality print. For those with children there are a number of "School Papers" available.
The biggest plus is the cost savings on ink. And hey it's "NOT" made in China, way to go HP. I looked at Canon, Brother, Epson and Kodak. I know why I keep going back to Hewlett-Packard brand printers. And you only have to replace the one that is empty. This machine is very simple to use, and love the on screen LCD readout, if you're a dummy just read and follow along, it's great. I run Windows XP. Heck even the box and packaging materials are very sturdy.
but not as good as HP. Does a great job at scanning, copying and the photos are very good. I had it up and running in less than 30 min. No ink wasted. So it can produce more accurate colors than Tri-color cartridges.
Some others were O.K. The biggest advantage is the new HP Vivera ink cartridges, this baby has six. Consumer Reports rated it as one of the lowest printing cost per page or photo. This HP was a no brainer. Oh yeah, the black and white text on this baby rivals high end laser printers. You have to buy this HP, you can't go wrong, it's a lot of BANG FOR THE BUCK. The HP C6280 is an awesome printer, scanner, copier all in one. Each color cartridge is about $10.50.
Both in color and in black and white. I shopped around and Amazon has the best price and FREE shipping. They are the BEST. Very good instructions and even a step by step hook up video guide on the LCD screen, very cool. The HP C6280 is very well constructed, hook-up is super easy. This machine is a steal at $135 and change.
I'm happy as can be with this baby. The photos are beautiful, and the duplexer works like magic. As recommended I print on Fast Economy and it does look great. The wireless bit isn't important to me so I'm hard wired into the PC. I was looking for a document printer that also does photos - this was it. OK, I'll admit that I cheat and read everyone else's rewiews, complaints, recommendations, and lessons learned BEFORE I buy, so I have a lot less problems with it than some have mentioned. No glitches on installation and the card slots, scanner, and copier all work great.
Noisy when starting up, but does a good print job. Haven't had it long enough to critique all the features, but am satisfied with my experience to this point.
