HP PhotoSmart 325 Compact Photo Printer

I highly recommend this printer. I did plenty of research and came to the conclusion that this printer offers the best features for the price. The other HP model (HP 375) offers a photo preview screen but costs more. I saw a retail store rep print the same image on HP and Epson printers and the HP printers usually were faster with equal or better photo quality. My family has used this printer for a month now and it is so much fun. Great job HP!

I was strongly considering buying this printer - until I saw my friends prints she made with it. Im usually a fan of HP but I really feel they took a step backwards with the photosmart series. The only real drawback to this printer is the fact that it only uses a tri-color cartridge. Yup, there is only cyan, magenta, and yellow. No black! The way this printer makes black (or shades of grey for that matter) is by combining all 3 colors to form a composite black. This causes the prints to seem washed out and lacking dark contrast (not to mention using a large amount of ink). If you have any sort of darkness, shading, or greys in there, they will be represented poorly. Dont believe me? Go to a local store, ask to see the examples, and compare it to other printers.

LOve Love Love this printer I take it everywhere I purchased one for mohter also. I take it to my daughters class room for school projects around the holidays they love it and are going to look into purchaseing one for the class

I put a brand new cartridge in & the printer didnt work. The printer quality was poor at best. I was extremely disappointed considering it was labeled very good/like new condition. I would never order from this buyer again.

My Husband was quite pleased with this photo printer as his birthday present. And I might add he is not easily pleased with gifts. The picture quality is excellant for its price, and was very easy to use. The only thing I was disapointed in was the fact that it did not come with the battery to make it more portable. I thought it was included in the package. I guess at that price thats what you get.

its not bad, probably would be better if i had a better camera taking pictures!

I got this printer in December but then in January IT STOPPED WORKING! I was bummed because I was so happy with it. I tried to get it to work everyday for about a week or two then I gave up. Now in April I decided to get another one, but before I did I wanted to see if it would work one last time and guess what?! It came to life!!!! It healed itself!!! I have no idea how?! I am so happy with it!!!!!!! Its the best thing ever!!!! NO NEED FOR THE COMPUTER!!!! But if you want to edit the pictures so they come out looking great then it comes with a stellar program!!! I JUST LOVE IT!!!!

I have owned the hp photosmart,325 ,for two months now. The machine is easy to use,compact,and portable. The battery is not included,!!nor is the printer cable.!!!the unit works well and i highly recommend it.!!!Please note if the printer cable and battery,had been inclued with this package!!!,I would have given this a 5 star rating.

Good.unit but pricey

Printer has proven to be EXCELLENT as far as I have used it. Won it in a contest, so Im not complaining. ;) I have printed out some pictures and find the quality to be EXCELLENT. The speed of printing is also fast and the printer prints BORDERLESS photos (which is a handy feature). As with any product there are a few cons. 1) Printer is a PHOTO printer. That means you wont be printing out an 8X10s; you can only print 4X6 photos (but Im expecting you know this already..) 2)Cable to hook to PC is *not* included. If you want to transfer pictures from your computer, dont expect to get a cable with your printer. The cable is sold separately. However, a flash/USB drive will work perfectly.. Just plug the USB drive into your computer, stick the pictures on it, then plug the USB drive into your printer. --------- The printer can recognize MANY different formats, SD cards, USB input devices (photo iPod, flash drive, etc..) Which is very convenient. It can also view the pictures straight from your camera (make sure its compatible, most are..) If youre looking to just print photos and want a light-weight and portable printer, this is the item for you!
