Hewlett-Packard Deskjet F380 > Reviews

Advantages: An all-in-one, Inexpensive.
Disadvantages: None.

As I am getting married aboard in June this year the people who are planning our wedding requested some legal paperwork such as copies of birth certificates, passports etc, so they can check the documents and highlight any issues or problems. As we didn't have a copier we thought it would be easyer to go out and buy a fairly cheap one. After walking around Tescos searching and deciding for about half an hour, we came across the HP all-in -one F380 ... Read review

Advantages: small, sharp printouts, excellent value for money
Disadvantages: USB cable not contained in box, installation can be tricky, scanning doesn't work yet

Since I paid roughly 20 pounds on printing last term I convinced myself that buying a printer would actually - in the long run - be cheaper. I still didn't want to buy something too cheap which would only last a month before breaking down. By browsing through PCWorld's website I discovered the HP DeskJet F380 - an all-in-one printer, scanner and copy machine reduced to 39,99 pounds and coming with free delivery. The decision was quickly made. ... Read review

Advantages: Extremely cheap, quick to print, good quality, nice appearance!
Disadvantages: You need to purchase USB lead seperately

After killing my old printer, also a HP all-in-one, I decided it was time to stop scamming ink and paper off all of my friends and to make the plunge into buying a new printer. It took me a long time to get round to it and I wasn't very happy about spending fifty quid or so on a printer, probably a lot more with ink and cables, which is why I put it off so long! However! Then I discovered the HP Deskjet F380, which certainly cheered me up! It's ... Read review

Advantages: Great Value for Money, Quick, Quiet
Disadvantages: None I can think of.

Having recently chucked away my old printer is it had packed up (Lexmark by the way, no surprise there), we hunted around for a bargain. I searched the Internet for a good make, and for one with cheap Ink Cartridges. I knew I had to avoid Lexmark, so that narrowed it down to a few models. Hewlett Packard being one that seemed to offer reasonable prices. So I looked at their models first. After checking a couple of sites I came across the HP F380 ... Read review

Advantages: Quick, easy, reliable, high quality
Disadvantages: none as of yet

This is an extremely good printer. It has two separate cartridges, black and colour, a built in scanner, printer and stand alone photocopier. All of these functions are very high quality and very quick. It is wasy to learn how to use and install and prints a page in seconds. The scanner scans very good quality images and so does the photocopier. It can also print on photo paper and although this uses a lot of ink it is impossible to tell the image ... Read review

Advantages: quiet, great design, works without the computer
Disadvantages: poor print quality and no media card slots

Usually before buying something, like you are doing now, i would do some research. However after living with our desktop for over a year with no printer, simply the idea got us so excited we walked straight into a high street electronics store and bought it straight off the shelf, based simply on what it looked like. Breaking all my rules, never buy high street and always know what your buying before you buy it! I wanted a cheap printer, so if and ... Read review

Advantages: Affordable, 3-in-1 function, good print and scan quality
Disadvantages: Small scanner surface, printing is limited to about 8" wide paper size.

This product is truly a reward for me. I was working part time back then, I received my last pay after I resigned. I gave my parents the right to use the money. And they bought this magnificent 3-in-1 device. I was like "hey why this? There's so many printer out there". When I look at the tag price, I was surprised. How can something like this can be this affordable? And I am amazed, I don't need to buy a separate scanner now that I have this product, ... Read review

Advantages: Quiet
Disadvantages: A bit chunky

The first inkjet printer I ever had was an HP and it lasted me for many a year and saw me through all the printing I needed to do for my degree. Since then I've tried many makes. Cannon, Epsom, Lexmark but they're all disappointed in one way or another and the Cannon finally died on me just the other day. It never happens at a good time. It never happens when you think 'Never mind I've got a few pounds to spare' so off I toddled round to PC ... Read review

Advantages: THREE functions all for one technology / good value for money for all THREE functions
Disadvantages: The COPY function gives average results. Ink cartridges are rapidly used up in premium photos

...'HP DESKJET F380'. The original, Hewlett-Packard brands of HP21, HP22 and HP58 cartridges are relatively expensive in general, even at Tesco. My recommendation to any buyer is to go for cheaper brands, manufactured by Asda or Tesco. That's my word. Trust! Rating: 8/10 5. THE SOFTWARE PACKAGES [Software Installation software] The software installation has already been covered in section 2 of my review. Provided various computer ... Read review

Advantages: Good quality printing and scanning
Disadvantages: Ink cartridges don't last very long

I bought this all-in-one printer as a spur of the moment buy, I urgently needed to print a lot of things, and this seemed very cheap for what it offered. Since having the printer I have to say, I am very glad I bought it, its much more reliable than any other printer I've had, the softward that comes with it to help you organise your pictures is also a pretty useful and self explanatory thing. I love the photocopying facility of this printer, especially ... Read review
