Review 1 of 9

Price Paid:  $169.00 from Fry's Electronics

Summary:

This printer turned out to be a poor choice. I had been using a HP Photosmart 1000 which I believe was their very first model. I was very happy with it, but it wore out after a while and I decided to replace it with another HP Photosmart printer. I don't know how they could go so wrong with this printer. Here are my biggest complaints: 1) It is an ink hog. I used to get about 80 full page, full color prints from my old printer, but the 7350 gives me about 20 before I get a low ink warning. 2)There are 3 separate cartridges, but only 2 can go in the printer at once. I have to switch back and forth between the black cartridge and the photo color cartridge. Annoying. 3) The paper feeding is really sloppy. It seems to just grab a page a nd jerk it into the printer, which causes the image to be crooked on the page a lot of the time. 4) Worst of all, it needs repaired after 14 months of use. Of course there is only a 1 year warranty. The printer says the tri-color cartridge "failed". So I replaced it, but it still says the same thing and it won't print as long as the "failed" color cartridge is in the printer. It's broke.

Strengths:

The prints look fine. Colors are accurate and vibrant. Card slots for many different media cards.

Weaknesses:

See above. Not worth the hassle when there are so many better printers available.

Review 3 of 9

Price Paid:  $200.00 from Dell

Summary:

This printer was purchased to replace our old HP, which served us well. We also wanted to produce good images when using our Sony 3MegaPixel Camera on it. Both of which this printer excelled at. It even came with features like ports for all supported flashcards, a good feature when you dont have the necessary cables. Its quiet too. Its also quick at regular documents.

Strengths:

Good quality Sound Color Price Camera friendly

Weaknesses:

sLoW, almost agitating photo printing speed--24hr photo... printing... hehe. Could be better but you get what you pay for and it was cheap

Review 4 of 9

Price Paid:  $179.00 from QVC

Model Reviewed:
HP 7350

Summary:

While quality of the output is excellent, I found the quality of the manufacture to be low grade and returned it. The print cartridges were very expensive.

Strengths:

I can't imagine a better quality output for the price. After sending photos to relatives, they are all hooked on digital imaging.

Weaknesses:

Price of cartridges, cha ching. There are several little plastic pieces (paper guides?) that are begging to be broken. That said, the quality of the output did not seem to suffer.

Review 5 of 9

Price Paid:  $179.00 from Costco

Model Reviewed:
Hewlett/Packard Photosmart 7350

Summary:

Excellent photo quality pics when using HP premium photo paper. Very crisp and clear 4x6 borderless prints for a low price printer. Handy flash card reader. I'm not sure why the other reviewer was having trouble with his network. I have this printer hooked up to three systems (Win XP, Win 98 and a G4mac) and all three can print to it without trouble, although the text from the Mac isn't as clear (probably a font thing). I will say networking the XP and 98 boxes together was a real bear! Also have not experienced any power on/off issues, can't figure out what that is about. Also bought the multi function version for my father. It is great! Much faster prints.

Strengths:

Excellent print quality (from PC's). Beautiful photos with right paper. About 50 4x6's per ink cartridge.

Weaknesses:

Price of ink cartridges is high. Printer speed (photo prints) is slow.
