Summary: I just Love it !!
Review: I have been using this printer for a year now, and have no problems whatsover.
I used it print pictures, greeting cards, etc. The setup was pretty straightforward. Pictures , if taken well, really look very neat after they are printed.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Very Bad & Poor Product
Review: This product always comes with a factory defect (mechanism problem) which does not print the photos completely.
Also the services of HP is very poor and bad.
I don't advise any one for this printer or any of HP printers. The quality for HP printers is really poor & not like before in addition to their services.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Great Photo Print-outs
Review: Although I haven't had this printer for long I've got to admit I'm impressed. I took pictures at Thanksgiving and my relatives were amazed at how professional looking the prints turned out. I think this printer is a great buy for anyone.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Great But...
Review: This is a great printer but it runs out of ink quickly which is costly but if you want great quality fork it out for this one

Summary: ink guzzler
Review: I just replaced my old HP Deskjet 722c with the Photosmart 7550. I am sorely disappointed in the fact that I've had to replace the ink cartridges 5 times since I got it last week - Buyer beware - the tricolor ink cartridge for the 722c is $35 and contains 30ml. The tricolor cartridge for the 7550 is also $35 - but contains only 17 ml - major difference when you do a lot of high-quality color printing. Next time I will know to check the size of the ink cartridges. Mind you, I was printing at a higher than usual resolution - "Normal" resolution for HP brochure/glossy paper. There are a couple of lesser resolutions and then the "best" resolution. The copies so far are extremely nice, but what was supposed to be a reasonably priced Christmas present (calendar) for 28 of my closest friends because more expensive than if I'd just taken the project somewhere to be done professionally. Would I buy this printer again - probably not since my reason for wanting it is for high-quality printing and at a reasonable price. Final note - I had the "photo" options turned off.

Summary: NEW PRINTER
Review: I HAVE JUST PURCHASED THE HP 7550 2 MONTHS AGO. WHEN I CHECKED THE 57 CARTRIDGE, CLOSED DOWN THE TOP A LITTLE PLASTIC PEICE BROKE OFF OF THE UNDERNEATH SIDEWHERE THE SPRING IS. NOW IT WILL NOT HOLD THE CARTRIDGE SECURE AND THE PRINTER SAYS CARTRIDGE FAILED; PLEASE REPLACE. THE PRINTER WILL NOT WORK AT ALL.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Don't hesitate to buy
Review: The HP Photosmart 7550 has been the best printer that I have ever owned. I purchased this model last December 2002 to print photos to send in Christmas cards. Many people couldn't believe that the photos came from a printer.

Pro's - Many easy to use features, professional results, memory card readers, works great in conjunction with an HP scanner, reliable.

Con's - Haven't found any yet and I print many long documents and photos.

Summary: Good printer
Review: Fast shipping. Print quality for photos is excellent, some of the lighter colors appear washed at times. Prints borderless 4x6 prints from a secondary photo paper tray (no switching the main paper tray) quality excellent. Regular printing quality is excellent, although much the same as my four year old HP 722C inkjet. Has front USB port for connecting a HP camera and printing directly from the camera (I don't have one, so haven't tried it.) Also can print from six different types of media cards directly. The 7550 came with some useful software (photo management and custom printing software) - I would recommend this printer to anyone looking for a solid photo printer, although it is probably more expensive than some other models on the market.

Summary: Yes, there is NO USB cable...
Review: When I looked at the reviews for this printer, one said there was no USB cable included. I could hardly believe it, but ordered one, just to be safe. And good thing, because there was none. Even the instructions say to purchase a cable, but it's a little late. Be warned!!

The print quality is stunning, but the mechanics of this printer are frightening. It has ruined almost every other sheet of photo paper I've used, with the ink carriage getting stuck on the crumpled paper and tearing it. Irritating and expensive. Is this a new HP money-making strategy?? I've learned to NEVER let it grab the last sheet of paper. That never, ever prints correctly.

The print cartridges are scary to put in. I don't like this machine, and I forsee a lot of mechanical difficulty and repairs ahead. And the ink is used up so fast, it's like pouring it out of the cartridges. Yeah, it's neat, and has a lot of features, but if it doesn't print reliably, oh boy....

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Not worth the money!!!!
Review: If I could I would give this printer 0 stars!!!! I bought this printer about 6 months ago and now I'm going to have to replace it. After two months of use the ink carriage jammed and sprayed ink all over the inside of the printer. After four months of owning it the mechanism that spits the paper out once it is done printing no longer works so you have to sit at the printer and pull the paper out after printing or it completly crumples the paper and jams the printer. Now you have to hit the power button at least three times before it will turn on and even then that doesn't guarantee it will power on. Most of the time I have to unplug the printer and plug it back in and then hit the power on button before it will work. And finally today it no longer works. I went to print something and an error message came up saying the printer could not be found. After uninstalling and reinstalling all the software and printer drivers and then downloading all the new drivers (13.8 MB workth) it still does not work. This was my first HP printer and it will be my last! Don't waste your money.
