+ Good print quality and speed. Easy printing from memory cards.

- Hard to find print cartridges. Cartridges dont last long. Default settings are American, have to manually configure it to print A4 size.

Ken, Crewkerne Somerset

+ Excellent printer - the best I've had. Quality output of 6x4 photos from the separate paper tray. General b&w and colour printing is excellent. 6 colours a good idea, too.

- Not happy about the Bluetooth compatability - or at least HP's inability to troubleshoot a problem that I have had with it. USB is fine and it does with work OK with the non HP Bluetooth to my laptop, but not via HP Bluetooth to my PC.

+ Overall performance excellent, and particularly helpful information on small screen.

- Some hiccups experienced, but mostly as a result of my switching from an Epson to an HP printer, and diificulty in making instant adjustments.
