Summary: This printer fails network sharing and HP: "Not Supported"
Review: Although the quality and functionality worked great on the computer the printer was installed on, after sharing it on my home network and successfully connecting to it from my other computers it failed to print. Tech support at HP said "I don't support that" when requesting help. Kind of sad that the driver developers for HP have gotten so lazy as my old HP 660Cse worked just fine on the same home network.

Summary: Bad printer
Review: From: David PerezRe: review on my defective printer This letter is to notify you that my Hewlett Packard printer is terrible and I'm very unhappy with both the quality of my printer, and the after sales service that I received from Hewlett Packard. Below you will find the reasons why I will probably never purchase from Hewlett Packard. -I purchased the printer for business purposes in February of 1999. -I used the printer, under normal quality prints for the purpose of letters & Memo's. -Come Christmas I tried to use the printer under the best quality print for the first time. (To make holiday cards) -At that point I discovered that the printer did not work under this setting. (I then had to buy holiday cards) -I sent the printer to get fixed during the Christmas Break. -When the printer came back to me I tried it out, and bingo the problem wasn't even fixed. -I called the repair department and they told me to send it in again. -They didn't even fix the problem can you believe that. -Because this printer is used for the purposes of work I had to wait until our February break to send it in again. -When the printer came back this time again, I found that now 2 new problems had suddenly appeared. List of new problems since the printer was returned from your service department: 1. The Printer now prints off centre (Example included) 2. The printer doesn't print the colours properly at the bottom of the picture (Example Included) -This has become a very bad habit to have to send my printer in to get fixed all the time. This is the way I see things: 1.I never got a printer that worked since day one. 2.I didn't find out that the printer was defective until December 1999 3.When I did send the printer in to get fixed, nothing was done. 4.When I sent the printer in again (Now February) It comes back with 2 new problems. 5.My warranty is now over, but the way I see it, the printer never even worked properly the entire year I had it. 6.What I would like is for my printer to be fixed free of charge. 7.If this can't be done then I would like to return this defective product in exchange for a new one. 8.I've been more than patient with this defective product and I want to be satisfied by either #6 or #7 in this paragraph. I will not take no for an answer because I really do believe that I have not received the product that I set out to purchase back in February.

Summary: OK, but Not Great
Review: It is my second color printer and it is nice. It just hogs the ink. Otherwise, I enjoy it. Besides a few bugs that interfere with Windows Media Player and other applications, not a bad product. Just Don't use it when you computer is on a Y2K day like DEC 31,1999. It will NOT WORK!

Summary: Converted
Review: Ok, I admit it, I was always an Epson Addict, but when my last printer bit the dust and I had to sniff out a budget model, I plumped for the HP 710c. I switched on expecting the very worst, and got a surprise. This unit is quiet, quick to standby, solid, well built and produces amazingly good results. I still favour my old Epson Photo 700 for photo quality, but for just about anything else, on just about any paper, I can't fault the 710c (DAMN! ). Ink lasts forever too, you can't go wrong. I really never thought I'd see myself saying this about an HP, I've always found them clunky, clumsy and decidedly average, looks like I'm going to have to eat my words on this one.

Summary: Good Quality Printer, but beware if you need compatibility!
Review: The HP 710C is a very good quality printer, most of my output looks as if it was laser printed. Its quick and fast and inexpensive, although I haven't had to buy a new cartridge yet. However although it looks like a standard inkjet printer it is different in a very important way, it uses a protocol called PPA (performance Printing Architecture) This is a very non-standard and has a few disadvantages. You can't network this printer, it loads my computer making it slow down dramatically whenever I try work and print at the same time (this is because windows does most of the work in the background because the printer has less memory and on-board intelligence then usual), Also if you want to use it an anything other than Windows (i.e LINUX) you cant!). Overall a good buy for an exclusively windows PC without networkability.

Summary: A GREAT PRINTER -- A REAL WORKHORSE
Review: This is a truly great printer. I use it primarily for black and white printing and I print a lot. It is fast, very clean, and very economical, particularly with black and white printing. It is very forgiving of mistakes (I reuse scrap paper for drafts and many times I had papers stapled together go thru the printer without harm). I don't recommend the practice but so far the printer has survived without damage. Its real easy to clear a paper jam if it occurs, and to change the ink. So far paper jams have occured only when I've had staples on the paper, or had some other irregularity with the scrap paper I typically print drafts on. The printer gives you lots of choices of printing quality and speed, so you can opt for draft quality to save ink and for speed or for varying degrees of better quality, which are hard to distinguish from laser quality printr. The gray scale is excellent. Best of all you can save money by reusing the ink cartriges
again and again. I've used one cartrige about 8 times so far.
You need to buy an inexpensive reinking kit on the web, and with practice the whole reinking process (for black ink) now takes me no more than two minutes. I'd guess I get about 1000 sheets between reinkings. The cartridges are extremely sturdy. I put one in boiling water for about half an hour to clean the print heads and forgot to turn off the flame. When I arrived the water had boiled out and the cartidge was too hot to touch. Amazingly it still worked fine and still does many reinkings later.
( I don't recommend this to you) The color printing seems adaquate. I don't have a basis of comparison. It is economical if you reink yourself.
There is only one cartirge for all colors, so using more one color would make the cartridge useless when that color ran out unless you reinked yourself. All ink jet printers are uneconomical unless you reink yourselves, but this printer is a workhourse and a gem. If you reink as I do wear clothes you could afford to get ink on and some kind of food handling thin gloves to keep the ink off you. If you are careful you wont get any ink on you, but ink is ink and hard to get off so its much better to be safe than sorry.
