Very Pleased December 30, 2008
I was a bit hestitent to purchase because of neg feedback regarding the software. I had not one bit of trouble. It had been about 3 years since I purchased a printer and was very surprised at the selection and how easy it was to set up and use. Print quality is great for bw and photo. br /I'm a very pleased custommer.

Great printer, but . . . December 28, 2008
This printer was easy to set up, and is easy to use. No problems with the wireless feature. However, when you attempt to print photos from your computer (rather than a memory card) it does not recognize paper in the photo paper tray; instead you have to load photo paper in the main paper tray (very awkward). HP should fix this.

Nice features, Hidden cautions.... December 22, 2008

I originally went to a store to buy a replacement Yellow ink cartridge for my Canon Pixma printer. I ended up leaving the store with the HP C8180 printer. After all, it's only 1666% more than I originally intended to spend in the store... :)br /br /That being said, what I liked about the printer is the extras built in. Things like the DVD-RW Lightscribe and the film/slide scanner. Besides, the memory card reader supports the SDHC memory cards where my Canon did not. It's not unusual for me to upgrade my printer every year or two. I guess I was due.br /br /I set it up at home and tried printing some pictures off a compact flash card. For comparison purposes, I printed pictures I had already printed on the Canon. The Canon printed these picture spot on. The printed image matched what I saw on its viewscreen. The same pictures on the 8180 printed very dark, even after turning off auto adjustment features in the printer.br /br /I was using Canon paper (because the gloss of the paper was astounding) in both the Canon and HP printers. I tried the HP paper next. I still got the same result (thus debunking the "must use HP paper" myth).br /br /Nothing (at least nothing blatantly obvious) in the manuals gave me any clue as to why it printed pictures that dark. I took a good print from the Canon and used the "copy" feature of the printer to see how it printed from a copy. It printed wonderfully. Almost a perfect match of the original. Now I'm thinking there is something wrong with the printer's internal image printing software. I get on the phone to HP to see if there is an answer.br /br /Eventually, after all the initial identifying information they ask for, I get to discuss the issue. They guided me to the print settings where I can change the brightness of the image before printing. Meaning, EVERY TIME before printing. Unacceptable! I'm not paying this kind of money for a printer where a convenient feature such as direct print from card is rendered inconvenient by having to set the brightness for every print. The printer doesn't save the brightness setting. The funny thing is, the image to be printed looks just fine on the LCD display.br /br /Next, during the hour long call, they said that since I'm using the supplied cartridges, my prints will come out darker than normal, and they'll gladly sell me a new set at a discount. This supposedly is because the starter inks are formulated differently. Feeling I've been snookered into deceptive sales practices from HP and their vendors, I asked them that if that's the case, why did the copy function work so flawlessly even when I was using the same "starter inks". They had no answer to that question except saying it's mentioned in the manuals. I asked them to prove where that's mentioned. They put me on hold for a few minutes and came back intending to change the subject. In the end, they couldn't quote any place in the books or even on the box where I need to have a second set of ink cartridges available. They only kept saying that the starter inks are used to mix with the shipped inks in the device because of the different formulation. It's a new low for HP to pull a stunt like this, especially for their flagship multifunction inkjet printer that costs enough money already to end up having to spend another $70 for a set of inks up front.br /br /I only had the printer for a day. I already printed many ways on it, but the direct from card method is still dark. Because I get good printing otherwise, I'm still skeptical about the dark printing "clearing up" if and when I change the cartridges.br /br /The form and function of the printer is great, and would deserve a five star rating for those. My two star drop in perfect rating is for both the poor out of box memory card printing issues and the audacity of the HP tech support to insult my intellect and consumerism by telling me that I basically should replace the (completely full) starter ink cartridges with new ones right away. An extra expense I'm supposed to incur myself. I don't recall any other printer manufacturer pulling a stunt like that. This could very well be my last HP printer if that's how they do things with all their new inkjet printers.

Hp C8180 All in one Printer December 21, 2008
Extremely easy to set up and use. Touch screen instructions are easy to following. Advantage of having a CD/DVD Drive built into the printer allows for quick and easy copying and burning on documents/photos/etc.

Excellent Printer December 2, 2008

This printer is excellent at printing photos. The clarity and color is exceptional. I could not tell the difference between photos from a processing center and the photos printed on this machine.br /br /One of the best purchases I have made and by far the best printer of the 3 photo printers I have purchased.
