Hewlett-Packard 2175

Introduction ************* I first bought this all in one printer/scanner/photo copier combo back in may 2003 from John Lewis in High Wycombe. I paid £250 which I thought was a fair price. The Printer ************ I first used the printer to print a page from the official Nintendo website on cheats, and game tips The printout came out in about 10 seconds looking colourful bright and easy to read I was impressed with the colour, The printer is a little noisy but it prints out quickly so the sound doesn’t last long.

I have to confess this was a hand-me-down as a friend of mine got an even better model but who cares its a quality printer. It retails for about £170 from PC world and boasts a number of fancy functions. First the pros, the printer is great quality, i have just printed of my PhD thesis ready for submission, and the software supplied is easy to install/use and make scanning documents onto your computer as easy as pressing a button.

Using my computer for a lot of business work such as advertising literature, letters etc I found that my printer and copier I run off the PC were simply tying me down from other work and at the same time, having a wife who is brilliant at organising the paper work it seemed to me that we in effect wanted another office. With this in mind we were out looking at all the options available when we spotted this machine available on offer and what a find ! Used away from the computer we can now do so much more and frankly its so much better too. LAYOUT OF CONTROLS AND OPERATION Numerous buttons and ... more

We bought this separately after we had bought a p.c because the old printer we had was pretty useless. I am really impressed with all the features and the things it can do for this price. It can print, copy and scan and also has a memory card reader to scan pictures straight to the printer. In scan mode if you have the right software it can scan in black and white or colour or greyscale. In the print, copy and scan mode you can print/copy/scan in either black and white or colour, but if you can get away with black and white I would use this, and it does tend to eat away at the cartridges!
