Pretty good.... until it died.......2007-09-17

I had this printer for a couple of years. For the most part it did the job for me and I was happy with its performance. Networking with an ethernet cable so that all the mac and PC machines in my house could print to it was fairly easy....

Then last week it said I had a paper jam in the carraige. After hours spent diagnosing the problem online and going through step after step to fix it, nothing worked. There is no paper jam... there is just a printer that no longer works because it thinks there is a paper jam.

I've decided to give the Canon MX700 Office All-In-One a try. It's brand new so not many reviews out for it yet but I've heard good things about the Canon's and this one seems to do everything I need for only $200 dollars. I'll try to review it here on Amazon after a few months of use.

HP Photosmart 2710.......2007-05-30

I loved this photo printer so when my boss wanted one for her desk this was the first printer that I wanted to purchase.

hp 2710 multifunction.......2007-03-27

I rev'd this for a christmas present and used it very little, all of a sudden the carriage quit. I called HP and talked to a man that I couldn't even understand, but basically he told me it wasn't worth fixing buy a new one. So I did I bought a Canon. That will be my last HP.

NEVER A SOFTWARE UPDATE.......2006-11-29

Stay away from this careless company's products. The machine may function well, but HP does not provide any software updates for its products. As a consequence, my 2710 no longer operates in the Windows XP environment, although it worked in this environment when I paid money for it. Technical support told me "We are very aware of this problem and are working on it." That's nice, but I cannot use the scan functions at all from the PC, nor will you be able to.

Good all-in-one when it works; installing (software) difficult.......2006-10-14

Full Review
I bought this all-in-one because I needed the scanner and copier functionality and didn't want separate devices for this. I also needed Mac compatibility and good overall quality. The wireless networking is a bonus for me, I have not yet used it but plan to do so in the future.

I bought it together with the duplex unit so that I can print double sided (note that the printer will wait 10s before continuing printing the backside; this is to let the ink dry). This unit sticks out of the back so it makes the footprint of the printer larger. Also realize that the exit tray sticks out in the front so that the entire device becomes quite bulky (50x50cm footprint). Note that there is no document feeder, so if heavy multiple page faxing/scanning is important to you, the HP is perhaps not the best choice.

I have used now all functions, except the memory card reader and wireless capabilities, and I can say that everything works as advertised: prints are fast and of good quality (sharp to the naked eye; only with magnifying glass you can see rough edges). Scans are also fast, and the copying function is really nice to have. For me these functions were the most important so I am satisfied. Occasionally, I make a photo print (also good), but here my requirements are not so high. It is possible to use special 6-ink color and gray ink cartridges for photos ($$$) so I expect that very good image quality is possible here, but I haven't tried this out yet.

However, the software is not user friendly: perhaps I did something wrong, but the basic installation took me almost 4 hours ! With occasional hang-ups of the system, letting me sitting not knowing what to do. I simply fail to understand why I need to install 350MB just to make a printer work! And this is only the 'basic' installation ('full' installation doubles this). Everything works fine now, but it left me with an uncomfortable feeling.

Bottom line: machine works fine and provides many functions in one device. I can recommend it. The only case in which I would look further is if heavy printing/scanning and photoprinting is very important to you. In that case, I think the HP is expensive (ink) and lacks a document feeder.

Update 9-sep-2005:
I have tried to install the 2710 on a Mac using Airport (wireless connection). I did not succeed. even not with 6 hour continuous support from HP help desk. End conclusion was that, after installing new drivers (even Mac OS was reinstalled!) there were still some settings within Mac OS not completely right so that at startup, the connection was not emmediately reestablished. After so many hours I finally gave up: now I use the 2710 just with a usb cable and that works fine. But this should not happen when you pay a premium for wireless 'capabilities' !

Update 21-sep-2006:
I have had several problems with ink cartridges. I always use original HP cartridges but now I have had a few times serious alignment problems: lines get printed only half: lower half is invisble. Self-cleaning, cartridge-realignment did not help. Only after cleaning them manually with some cloth, reinserting them, printing at least 10 'test pages' the printer works again as it should. But it left me with an uncomfortable feeling: I still do not know the cause, and I expect it will happen again in the future.
There I downgrade my review to 2-3 stars: in general the printer works ok, but too many glitches and software issues for me to recommend it to anyone. My next printer will no longer be an inkjet from HP.

Update 12-oct-2006:
New problems, this time the printer says "out of paper, press OK to continue". Well, I have filled the paper tray and the printer refuses "to continue" no matter what I do. Again I lost half an hour troubleshooting this thing. Eventually it worked again, but I have no idea what I did wrong or should do next time. I downgrade my review to 1 star: just too many annoying problems. I will not buy a similar HP printer again.

Pros
Printing, scanning, and copying quality, user friendly control panel.

Cons
Installing software, annoying problems, no document feeder, ink alignment.

The Bottom Line
This all-in-one performs ok when it works. No sheet feeder. Software installation is very difficult.

SPACEMAKER 75330.......2007-04-10

Nice unit overall. Easy to install and works well. I couldn't get the weather station to work for me (maybe I'm out of range). The only thing I didn't like about it was no battery backup. In case of power failure you have to input all your radio presets, clock, etc., over again.

Better sound than I expected, nice light . . ........2007-04-10

I got this for my wife, who wanted music in the kitchen. The light is a nice feature. Sound is better than I expected from a small unit. Radio reception is spotty, but we're pretty far out in the country so I'm not surprised.

The cd loader mechanism looks like the obvious place to fail first so I'm curious to see how long it lasts.

Installation was not much of a problem. Be sure you're comfortable drilling your cabinets.

Overall, we're very satisfied. 4 stars instead of 5 just because there is room for improvement. But for the money, it's a good player.

decent for cost GE spacemaker Radio/ cd player.......2007-03-17

This spacemaker is nice for the kitchen for general use. For the price I say that it is a good buy. The sound is ok but my last spacemeker cassette/ radio had bolder sound. The bass is week and there is no adjustment for it. There is a convenient remote operation, and memory channel mode. But you have to page through all of the memory Vs designated memory 1-10. The old knob tuner was quicker for finding stations, so this is a bit annoying for time. The CDs play well also.

fast and dependable.......2007-06-17

These are good quality cards that perform well in my Canon D-60s and Digital Rebels. Try to avoid buying from Adorama, they advertise new cards then deliver used ones. Had an experience with one of their "New" cards that almost cost me an important photo opp. Always check your storage media before a shoot, just basic photography and I should never had assumed the card was empty just because it was supposed to be new.

How many pictures will it store?.......2004-11-06

How many pictures will it store? It is the most commonly asked question from digital camera enthusiast but usually the question that is the most difficult to get a straight answer about. Well, considering I worked in the memory industry for over 7 years I can help clarify this perplexing question and do so unbiased as I have since changed industries.

The Delkin 512MB CompactFlah Pro, like most 512MB cards, will store on average 568 pictures when used with a 2 megapixel camera, 426 images when used with a 3 megapixel camera, 256 pictures when used with a 4 megapixel camera, 204 images when used with a 5 megapixel camera, and 160 pictures when used with a 6 megapixel camera. These numbers are based off the assumption that you are going to shoot your images at the highest quality JPEG setting available for the camera and understand that they are estimates and may be off by as much as 10 percent due to numerous factors including the complexity of the scene being shot and the compression algorithm used by your specific camera.

I truly hope this review was helpful to you in determining whether this 512MB card is the right capacity for your specific needs.

Daewoo 13" TV.......2006-12-30

We purchased this little TV earlier this year as an extra TV primarily because it was made in Korea and not China. The picture and sound quality are excellent for a 13" TV. It is cable and DVD ready and has been a pleasure to own. The price is very good also. I would recommend this TV to anyone. It has exceeded all our expectations

Nice picture for the price.......2005-09-06

Clean crisp picture. Not a lot of features but I didn't buy it for bells and whistles.
Using it as a security monitor. So it's on 24/7. No problems at all.

good condition.......2005-08-03

this tv came in good condition and very quickly as promised. i have since ordered a 2nd one the color is good and works with my satalite cable.

Nifty little TV.......2005-07-23

I'm impressed by this tv. Picture and sound quality is good and it is pleasing to look at. The only downside is that it didn't come with an arial. It's a good tv to have in your dorm room, kitchen or bedroom.

Great little TV!.......2005-01-05

This little TV has a great picture! I am very pleased, you can't beat it for the price! Buy with confidence A+<br /> -Sara
