Saw this on Amazon and love the Apple looking HP printer.
It was very easy to set up using just the iPad, not any other computer , took less then five minutes, love it, it has a straight plug and not one of those bricks,the look is very art like and it pretty quiet.
Love that the paper tray is hidden and under the front panel.
The touch screen was very fluid like and was easy to scroll, I have a hidden network and set up was very easy found my network in a minute.
The print quality is very good and it faster then my last 2 HPs both current models.
The bests thing it works flawless with my iPad, I can even print EBay shipping labels which I could not before.
I now feel complete without a MacBook.
Update.
I have been getting about 267 prints from a ink carterage which is good, printer can handle all tasks with ease.
Very happy I bought this printer, it looks stunning.
Ink can be found for about 14.00 each refill which is not bad at all.

This is a gorgeous device in search of greatness. It is extremely well built, set up was easy, and it works as expected and as advertised. Print quality and speed in B&W and color is very good although I don''t use this to print large format photographs. The scanner is quite good. The management software is simple and straightforward and the USB (hard wired) and network (wireless) can be individually adjusted. In short, everything works as anticipated.I think with any multifunction device there are going to be trade-offs that balance price point, performance, and features. I don''t think you will be happy with this printer if you want a quality photo printer but it has only one color ink source so that tells you something. You won''t be happy replacing ink cartridges if you print reams of paper. I wanted a printer that didn''t look like a NASA rover, had good print quality and speed, a good scanner, and wireless capability for a home office. This printer hits the sweet spot for my use and I would purchase it again in a heatbeat.
Why very good and not great? It has it''s weak spots. The print delivery method: open door tongue out paper print tongue back, door close. It needs a little work. The draft setting for color prints tends to produce only a partial page; I guess HP wants you to burn through the color cartridge or maybe it''s intended as a coloration draft only? Software bloat is an issue but that''s easily solved. I''m sure there will be other minor inconveniences but the qauality of the printer and scanner aren''t diminished.
You can definitely buy a better multifunction device but at this price point I haven''t seen anything that competes with this one. And it is a really nice looking piece of equipment. Good luck in your search and hope you find a printer that works as well as this one has for me.

I loved this printer for 1 week. I printed wirelessly to my Macs and ipad and ipod. Then the printer''s internet connection asked if I would like to update. Stupid me, I said yes. It went into the HP death spiral and not only would not finish the update, but would never work again. After much time on the phone with HP, they offered me a rebuilt unit as a replacement; I said no, the printer is a week old and you can send a brand new one. And are you going to take down the update which destroyed my printer and many others (google HP Envy D410 problems and you will see)I WOULD GIVE IT 1/2 star if that were possible
Never install the HP updates!!!!
I would add after dealing with HP, I just gave up----hopeless.
I love Amazon---full refund with no hassles.
I also bought amazon stock today and sold my hp-----eventually those attitudes show much about the company.
Can you believe they are still sending this HP "deathstar" update?

I purchased this model a couple months back and I find the scanning and printing functions to work well; however there is one bug which I have noticed. On this model, the control panel opens and closes upon power up and whenever you perform a printing function. The lid is suppose to close to the position that it was left at before it opened. This default position or angle of the control panel is manually adjustable to allow the user to manage the viewing angle of the LCS display. However, on my printer I find the lid does not always close or return to its "default" position. I have to actually manually close the lid.The problem is intermittent. I did download the last software version to the printer but it made no difference.
Now, this is not a big deal because it is easy to manually close the lid but when I called HP support, I must say I was disappointed. The support desk engineers had no familiarity of the printer nor access to one and they did not seem to be interested in flagging this issue to the design team. I explained to them that the problem only occurs after printer and is intermittent, but never occurs when you first power up the printer. In other words, there is no mechanical or hardware problem with the printer. The problem seems to be that the printer software "forgets" on occassion what the "return" position is for the lid. I spent a few hours of my time trying to troubleshoot and share my findings with HP support, but like I said, their support team in India seems to be clueless or not well educated on customer service and problem management.
Now I will admit that HP did offer me the option to replace my printer, but I told them I ws sure the problem is in the software and I would end up driving 80 miles back/forth to the store and just end up with another unit with the same issue. Will see who is right once this printer gets out there more.

- Magnetic, high-quality, heavyweight business card stock for ink jet printers can be used with Avery® templates.

- High-quality, heavyweight card stock.
- Coated to produce sharp text and vibrant color.
- Create magnetic business cards with your ink jet printer.
Unfortunately, each consecutive image was just a little bit more off from its respective business card than the previous one. The last magnet''s image on the page ended up being about 2 millimeters too high, which meant the words at the top of it were cut off/had run over into the previous magnet, and there was a horizontal white bar at the bottom.
I suspect that this problem is the result of the magnetic sheet not being flat (the edges of each of the magnetic cards are curled up slightly), causing it to feed into the printer badly. I came to this conclusion because my test run on regular paper came out lined up right.
Only purchase this product if you''re willing to take the time and make your own template (not to mention, waste multiple magnet sheets in test runs)!

We used these at our church to create magnets to promote an upcoming Easter service. They turned out really well. The only complaint I had was that you had to feed the magnet paper one sheet at a time because they would stick together and go through all at once. That was an easy fix though. They also didn''t provide a template but gave you way to find a template online. We just created our own and that worked well enough. They looked authentic and did work just like a magnet should! Very pleased. We bought 2 packs to begin with and have now purchased at least 10-15 more packs because we like the end product so much!Read Best Reviews of Avery Ink Jet Magnetic Business Cards (8374) Here
These worked very well, except when the product jammed in the printer. The magnetic business cards are thicker than card & photographic paper, and the feeder had a little bit of trouble with them. Otherwise, we produced beautiful and functional magnetic business cards.Want Avery Ink Jet Magnetic Business Cards (8374) Discount?
I used this product at my company to create inventory tags on various metal shelves. The tags work great and I thought the magnet was fairly strong considering it''s thickness and size. I had no trouble printing them at all using a fairly dated laserjet printer. If you use a cheap deskjet with poor rollers it probably won''t print correctly. You also should hold both the sides while it''s feeding to ensure it''s fed straight.A note on the templates: I''ve never had an avery template in Word that I could just use without making minor tweaks. This one I had to slightly adjust the height of each business card so they were all even. Definitely check first by printing on a thick piece of paper before wasting a whole sheet of magnets.

I enjoy the convenience of ordering from Amazon for a variety of items. I make my own notecards using card stock and rubber stamping. I didn''t see the flaw with this until I''d already opened it up to use it; but, there is a noticeable dent throughout the whole stack of paper. In my card making, I cut the 8 1/2 x 11" paper in two and make 2 cards from each sheet of paper. I''m not happy with the dent. It may not sound like much, but it DOES, in fact, make a difference in how many cards I can make from this and what types (doing things to cover up/disguise the dent.) I would''ve given this 5 stars if not for that. I''m not sure if I would''ve been able to see the same flaw if I had purchased this pkg in person at a store, since it''s wrapped in colorful plastic. It was either damaged in the shipping to my house, or @ the warehouse (to begin with.)Read Best Reviews of Wausau Specialty Cardstock (9090) Here

Dahle 12.5" Cut Personal Series Standard Capacity Rolling Blade Rotary Trimmer Save 30% off
- Rotary blade cuts in either direction
- Sturdy metal base with pre-printed grid lines.
- Includes straight, perforated, wavy and deckle cut heads.
- Perfect for Scrapbooking or where you need precise and straight cuts.
- Manual straight cutter with 12-1/2" cutting length
However, this Dahle model 507 cuts paper up to 12.5" long, so it is perfect for making greeting cards of all standard sizes.
The blade lasted a whole year, and was easy to replace, although rather expensive (the whole head needs to be replaced). I prefer a rotary cutter to a guillotine-type cutter for the type of papercrafting I do. If you need to cut large numbers of sheets at once, you might want to go to the guillotine-type cutter.
My only problem with my new Dahle model 507 is that there are no instructions on how to mount and use the three decorative heads that come with this cutter. I couldn''t find any instructions on Dahle''s internet site, either. I think I''m supposed to fit the two extra plastic strips that come with the product, down into the cutting groove when I use the decorative heads--at least this is the only way I could get them to cut, but it sure would have been nice to have instructions. The two extra plastic strips aren''t even labelled.
Buy Dahle 12.5" Cut Personal Series Standard Capacity Rolling Blade Rotary Trimmer Now
The listing by TCP Global Corp for the Dahle 12.5" Cut Personal Series does not come with the extra cutting heads as advertised. I ordered it twice and had to return it because the heads were not in the box.When I saw the poor review because of wrong advertising I had to chime in to bump up the rating on the cutter itself. I have owned mine now for well over a year and it is my primary go-to cutter when I reach for one. The only time I need my larger ones is if I want to cut something wider than 6" since this is a narrow cutter. That is exactly what makes it so handy most times, but if you cut widths wider than 6" I recommend you go for a trimmer with a larger bed.The cutting mechanism is self sharpening and slides securely on a metal rail. There is not way you can cut yourself with this trimmer. Cutting is equally precise if going up from the bottom or coming down from the top. Note: if you want to cut a window in your paper than this is not the cutter for it as the blade never lifts off.
As far as interchanging the cutting heads is concerned, it couldn''t be easier than pulling out the red tab at the top and out comes the rail. The cutting strips that come with the additional heads (I had to order mine separately, the machine does NOT come with them, please make a note of that) are easily inserted underneath the blade and don''t require special instructions, at least not for me, and I am no engineer, just a female crafter. They can be turned once marred by the scoring blade or other decorative blades, that is why there is no right or wrong way to insert them.
I love this cutter, it is easy to use and precise. It does not clamp the paper down securely, though, it only has a smudge guard. So too much paper in one pass and your paper on the bottom will shift. Not an issue with me, I don''t run stacks through this machine, I have my full-size machine for that.
Highly recommended for crafters and home office use.

I began my quest for the perfect colored paper because I figured it would be easier for my very young son to color on a stiffer paper. I first tried this Tru-Ray Sulphite Construction Paper. It is actually decent paper with the white actually looking like white. The paper quality is also better and smoother than many cheaper brands of construction paper. I should mention that it is 9x12 paper and so a little larger than "standard". Definitely not a minus, but it is something to take note of.Unfortunately, I decided that I would prefer something a little more stiff than its 76lb weight (personal decision and definitely nothing against the Tru-Ray paper) and so have since tried the Wausau Exact Index Cardstock , 110 lb, 8.5 x 11 Inches, 5 Color Pastel Assortment, 250 Sheets (48990). This Wausau 110lb was my second attempt and I have found a winner. This paper is as thick as a thin, store-bought card. I think the colors are also less bright and more rich than they seem in the Amazon image (which is a plus to me). The quality is also excellent with the paper being very smooth (even smoother than the Tru-Ray).
If you are looking for nice construction paper I recommend this Tru-Ray. If, like me, you are looking for something a little thicker then I would definitely recommend looking up the Wausau cardstock.
Konica Minolta Magicolor 1650EN Color Laser Printer Save 20% off
- Ultra compact and lightweight
- Designed to network with a variety of operating systems
- 9600 x 600dpi maximum print resolution
- 20ppm black and white print speed; 5ppm color
- 256MB standard memory
The unit itself is very quiet when in its power saving mode, with the only indication that its on being a blue light on the front panel. While printing, the unit is certainly louder but still enough to maintain a conversation at a reasonable level. I haven''t truly tested to see if I can get 5 ppm colour or 20ppm B/W, but I have noticed that from power-up to print it takes about 15-30 seconds and less than 10 seconds from sleep; neither numbers being an issue for me. Its a small unit that tucks away in a corner of the room nicely, and its tray takes a full stack of office paper. The one thing that would make this fantastic would be a duplexer unit. This is sold as an option for this model, however, the price nearly doubles.
To address some of the previous reviews, where Konica-Minolta stopped supporting the printer by no longer providing printer driver updates, I should say that for this particular printer, configured as a network printer through the LAN port, I can''t see this being a problem. Both on the Mac system as well as on Windows 7, the printer is recognised as a Postscript printer, meaning that the drivers are Windows'' generic built-in. I have never been a fan of using a vendor''s own print driver since they tend to add a lot of cruft and little value (having not installed the vendor driver I wouldn''t know if this is the case here), but I for one am hard pressed to see what difference the vendor driver provides over the PS one, and am of the mindset that there is none. So I don''t think planned obsolescence on KM''s part might not hit the 1650EN quite so hard. Just some food for thought...
In short, for under $200, you will have trouble finding a laser printer with this economy, durability and a network connection.
Buy Konica Minolta Magicolor 1650EN Color Laser Printer Now
We run several different operating systems in my house, and getting a printer which can support all of them is a challenge sometimes. This printer fit right in without any trouble. I had the printer unboxed, on the network, and printing from my Linux machine within half an hour, including time to deal with a broken software issue on the Linux machine.The best bit: because of the Postscript print engine, and Konica-Minolta having the good sense to include Postscript Printer Description (PPD) files, the drivers shipped with the machine worked perfectly on my Linux computer. If you''ve ever set up a Linux printer, you know that just never happens.
If you have a simple network, this printer is probably plug and play. With absolutely no configuration on my part my main desktop was able to connect to the printer and print.
If you buy a network printer though, there''s a good chance that you want to tweak your setup just a little bit. It was really easy to assign a network address of my choosing instead of an automatic address. I entered that address into my name server, and then it was trivial to connect to the printer from any machine on my network, by entering a printer server host of magicolor1650 (the host name I entered in the name server).
It really doesn''t get easier than this. I''ve been setting up home networks for 15 years, and this is the easiest printer installation I''ve ever had. Plug it in, tell the network about it, tell the computers about it, and it just works. That just never happens.

I got this color laser printer to replace a Samsung CLP-315W which was junk (I reviewed it too). The 1650EN is connected via ethernet to a network of Macintosh computers. It has a nice small footprint. It is very quiet in sleep mode, mostly quiet between printing and sleep mode, and somewhat noisy when printing but don''t chalk that up as a complaint. The print output is fantastic. The toner cost per print is above average but as it''s not our primary laser printer, it doesn''t get much of a workout on any given day. For such a small unit, the print speed isn''t bad; grayscale output is a little quicker. I give Ease of Setup 3 stars, perhaps unfairly, but only because the company does not do a good job of updating printer drivers for Mac OS X upgrades--it took K-M not less than a couple of months to put out a beta driver for Snow Leopard (OS X v10.6) after its release by Apple, and figuring out which driver(s) to use/install is somewhat confusing. Anyway we got the beta to work and have not had any problems with it. I would buy one of these again.Want Konica Minolta Magicolor 1650EN Color Laser Printer Discount?
This is the second model of Konica Minolta laser printers that I have purchased in recent years. I am very satisfied with the Konica Minolta brand. Laser printers are great because the toner is much more affordable than constantly having to pay for ink cartridges. Also, laser doesn''t "bleed" if water droplets get on the copy. The 1650EN printer is smaller than my previous printer, which is definitely a plus factor. It provides good, sharp color printing for an affordable cost. The only drawback to the printer is that it is not very fast.Save 20% off
I was about to order another color laser printer in this price category, but wanted to get some opinions from friends who might have some experience with laser printers in the home, and I am glad I did. This printer was recommended by a friend whose opinions I trust. He told me that he had been using his 1650EN in a home network environment for almost three years without any negative incidents. From my own past experiences in the computer business, I saw this as a refreshing alternative to the units that often came into our repair shop having a far more common name in laser printer technology.For the price, I can''t imagine anyone would have any complaints about this printer; the print quality in both text and color graphics is excellent. Printer set-up couldn''t have been easier on my Mac network; I didn''t even bother with either of the two discs that came with the printer, I just downloaded the latest drivers from the Konica-Minolta site. I would, though, have to say that there is at least one shortcoming to the printer that should have been addressed some time during its present life span: a user cannot upgrade its relatively small amount of on-board RAM. This would certainly be useful when dealing with higher definition photoshop projects. The print speed suffers a bit too here, but is satisfactory when printing text. Also, now that wireless networks are all the rage, the 1650EN shows itself to be a little long in the tooth since several newer competing models in this price range do offer the wireless connection feature. I would guess that this will appear in the printer that replaces this one in a future K-M lineup.
In all, I expect this printer to last me for several years at my current print demand levels, and would recommend it to anyone who wants a modestly-priced color laser printer for the home.

The whites have been captured well. Inkjet paper, at its best, looks as good as photographic paper finally. But what about the blacks? Here, we''ve been dependent upon the ink to carry the day. And black ink doesn''t typically look just like the black of a monochrome print straight out of the wash sink.
The HP 38 line of ink comes incredibly close. Can I still tell the difference between a real print and an inkjet print? Sure, but the ink is becoming less the critical factor. With the HP printers, you can sometimes see the telltale sign of the geared wheel that drives the paper forward. And up close, you can see the spray of the inkjet on large solid areas of the image. But stand back a foot and those issues disappear. Now the question is simply: do the blacks match?
The HP38 Photo Black is about a 9 out of 10 where 10 would be a match for a photographic print. We''re real close now, with only an oil like sheen when the light strikes the print from a certain direction to differentiate the inkjet print from the real print.
As others have noted, these inks run out quickly. If you like 13x19 prints (that''s the whole reason to get the printer), then you''ll go through these quickly. And when they run out, it might just be in the middle of a picture. You can swap inks, however, in the middle of a print run should that happen so my rule of thumb is to have one extra of each cartridge, ordering another one as soon as I''ve fed the replacement to the printer.
The carts have expiration dates on them, however, so you want to make sure that it''s not going to sit on the shelf for two years before you feed your printer with it (the printer, amazingly, knows if the ink has expired and warns you and tells you that you''re voiding the warranty, blah blah blah, before accepting the offering).
So great ink, incredibly expensive per drop but you have no choice in the matter. If you have the printer, you must have the ink.
Buy HP 38 Photo Black Pigment Ink Cartridge in Retail Packaging Now
Five Stars because the HP 38 Photo Black Ink Cartridge was shipped immediately and arrived promptly in good condition. If you use HP 38 ink in your printer, you must have all eight colors in the HP 38 series for your printer to operate properly, so price is a big consideration. Buying blind can cost you more for a complete set of inks, including more than one cartridge for the light gray and a couple of other colors that are used up faster than the others, than a new printer, and in fact I have heard of people that simply buy a new printer (of a different make) because it''s cheaper than the inks. Amazon has a selection of vendors, but be wary I recently picked the lowest price for each color, mostly from one vendor, and when I went to check out I found that this particular vendor charged $9 per cartridge for shipping and handling, making them the most expensive vendor on Amazon.I stock up on inks only occasionally. The trigger event is when the warning light on the printer for a particular color comes on, and I don''t have that color ready to change. When that happens, I check out what I do have, flesh out what I need to have a complete set including two of light gray, light cyan, and light magenta, and order them all, usually on Amazon. I like genuine HP inks on Amazon because that''s where the price, Amazon Prime free shipping, vendor reliability, and prompt delivery all come together. I need genuine HP inks because I have this printer for studio-quality color prints and I depend on it for my most-invested hobby, and I don''t have the time or patience to deal with cartridges that require color re-calibration or don''t provide the color fidelity that I expect of an 8-ink printer, or that don''t last as long as HP 38 ink cartridges. One of the reasons that I selected this printer was the combination of quality prints, low cost per print, and long life of the ink cartridges, a rare combination.
I recommend genuine HP 38 inks to anyone with a printer that calls for these inks, and recommend Amazon.com as the first place to check for best price. You can depend on Amazon and their associated vendors to deliver the right product promptly every time.

Is this good ink? Um...sure. It''s at least as good as any other, so by all means don''t hesitate to buy it based on quality. That said, it comes in tiny cartridges that don''t last long -especially the blacks -and are about $30 each, which wouldn''t be so bad except the printer in which I use them (HP''s B9180) requires 8 of these cartridges to even operate. Thus, it''s a rather expensive printer for a small business to keep operational, unless your circumstances allow you to charge clients for this expense as part of your projects. Most of my clients, on the other hand, would balk at that. But I digress.Anyway, I should also note that when I say that I think this cartridge is overpriced, that does not mean that you should buy a generic alternative cartridge for less instead. Not only would they probably not be guaranteed to last 200 years, but to my knowledge, you can''t. They do not exist. Which is all the more reason to consider again whether this is the way to go.
Of course, you may read this and think, "Hey, that''s more an indictment of the printer than of the ink cartridge." True enough, but given their intertwined relationship, I think it''s fair to point out that if you are now exploring the real costs of operating a piece of machinery for your office (the B9180), it''s definitely worth looking around some more to see if you might get just as good a capability via another printer at a lower ink cost.
