Poor Quality Control
5 of 6 Yahoo! Users found this review helpfulPros: Nice features
Cons: Slow, doesn't work well, uses too much ink
The HP Photosmart 8250 is like a facade. It looks nice, but that's about it.
I've had one for five months. In that time, HP has replaced it once and the new model has the same problems as the old one!
Problems:
It uses too much ink. I use about 1 black ink cartridge per week, even though I print less than half of the 480 pages that HP claims a cartridge will last. Also, it uses almost none of the light blue and light brown inks.
It constantly goes into maintenance mode. The printer has an annoying habit of moving into maintenance mode on a frequent basis.
Paper handling is terrible! The printer continually thinks it's out of paper even when it's not.
It's slow. Not nearly as fast as advertised.
The Photosmart 8250 has some nice features and is attractive looking, but I wouldn't recommend it to anyone. ...
