the product is not as expect, but amazon issued full refund
What can I say? Amazon has the best customer service ever. I bought the HP printer and test print it, I inserted the inks and use the photo paper comes with it to test print. It was way too slow. And I request a refund, I thought I’d lose money on the shipping and they will only issue partial refund. But, after I called the customer service and told them my situation, (opened item is not eligible for a full refund), they said they will pay for the shipping cost and issue full refund. I don’t get or lose anything for the transaction, Base on the experence with amazon, I’d definately come back again.

Great features, but not sturdy or reliable
I’ve owned a number of HP printers, and I’ve loved every one but this one. The biggest problem is constant carriage jams (usually easily fixed by pushing the OK button), and fairly frequent paper jams. The top of the machine is poorly aligned, and I have to fiddle with it to close it every time I open it to deal with those carriage and paper jams. When it prints, the printing is of good quality.

Printing envelopes is a real hassle, and the envelopes jam frequently – my old HP printer did envelopes like a charm. The scanner and fax functions work well, and it’s nice to have a network connection for this all-in-one.

I have the impression the newer HP printers are made much more cheaply than the old ones were, because I’m starting to have problems with newer HP printers at work.

I own HP stock and I hate to say this, but the most recent printers I’ve bought have been from Canon.

Under $100 for an all-in-one that can do wireless!
The HP Officejet 6310 has everything I want in an all-in-one including the ability to connect to my home office wireless network; hooking up an ethernet cable to my wireless router. Ink costs are on par with other HP deskjet models I’ve owned. (I tend to put the printer settings on fast draft so that I use less ink, but the small tanks that ship with this model were a bit of disappointment as I think I’ll be lucky to get 200 text pages out of them before replacement.) Replacement costs for both tanks is about $40.

The unit is compact and seems to be well built. Drivers installed easily on two XP Home machines, however I needed to go to hp.com to download a software/driver suite for Vista (64-bit), as the CD that shipped with it was not adequate. I used a network connection INSTEAD of a USB connection (don’t use both…). Setup time for the printer and all three computers was about an hour. (Mainly because of the time it took to get the drivers on the machines.)

The 6310 can print or copy without the computer being on. A nice feature. It also seems very fast and quiet compared to my deskjet. Scans are clean and clear, as are the copies. The fax setup was also quick and easy. If you have an answering machine set it to 4 rings…the fax picks up on the 6th!

For under $100… I don’t think you can go wrong for a home office or dorm room.
