| TERRIBLE TECHNICAL SUPPORT STAFF |
I will NEVER buy another HP product again....be it a printer, computer or whatever. The main reason is HP has arguably the worst technical support staff. On two separate occasions, I had problems with my HP Photosmart printer so I called HP's techical support. They ask you the perfunctory questions and try to sound all polite and concerned and everything but then the inevitable always happens--they recommend you to buy an ugraded HP printer! They don't even bother trying to help you fix the printer that you already have. Well, after I spoke to technical support, I contacted a buddy of mine who knows a lot more about computers than I do. Needless to say he fixed my printer, which wasn't that big of a problem, unlike HP's technical support. The problems? 1) I was having difficulty with the cradle inside the printer going back and forth. It was stuck. 2) After I bought a new laptop computer that came with Microsoft Vista, I had difficulty hooking up my HP printer with my new computer. In conclusion, I strongly discourage anyone to buy anything from HP until their technical support staff stops acting like salespeople instead. |

| HP 8750 Review |
Not what I was hoping for...upgraded from a CP1700....Oooops.
This thing eats ink, is ridiculously slow, prints faded images (with no insight from tech support) and consistanly pulls multiple pages.
Oh but it looks nice. No more HP's for this kid... |

| HP 8750 |
The HP 8750 prints B&W and Color beautifully. It took some time to figure out the right printer preference settings. I did not having experience with color management settings so for awhile my prints were coming out way too dark. Once the settings were correct between my Corel Paint Shop Pro X software and 8750 printer life was good. I am still amazed that the engineers at HP can't get the paper to feed through perfectly aligned every time, not that it's off that much. Overall the printer turns out awesome 13x19 prints which are much more impressive than 8.5x11, and has taken my photos to a professionally looking level. |

We've had the printer up and running now for two weeks and so far it does exactly what it's supposed to do. Not the fastest machine availble but for the price- well worht it- so far.... |

| Great printer, better than my old Canon i9900 |
As a former professional photographer, a printer's performance as a photo processor is really where the rubber meets the road.
I shoot Nikon pro-level cameras and lenses, both film and digital. I have a Canon 9950F dedicated print scanner, a Nikon CoolScan negative/slide scanner, and an HP 8750 as a dedicated printer for larger format photo prints. I use Photoshop, Lightroom, DNG Converter, and other top-end photo software. The quality of my photo prints is absolutely crucial to me artistically.
I had a Canon i9900 printer, which made great prints in non-archival inks; not acceptable. The Vivera inks used in the 8750 will last over 100 years when used on HP's Premium Plus papers, and the unit yields stunning prints. Image quality is as good as one gets from a lab.
The printer interfaces beauutifully and reliably with my computer system (a periodic problem with the Canon, I might add), a desktop running XP Media Center Pro. Absolutely no glitches at all.
I have to say, I love this printer, and strongly recommend it.
