Very pleased with my new printer. Arrived within a couple of days and took no time at all to set-up from box to fully functioning. Clear easy instructions to follow both hard copy and on-line. Great value for money and no more ink cartridges.
I purchased this about a month ago. Spectacular bit of kit. Fast printing and sharp no blurs or ink bleed. Liquid ink tanks a great bonus. No more expensive cartridges. Very satisified with my purchase and recommend it to anyone.
So far a better printer & cheaper to run than my old HP6100 series. I have 2 issues however, the first is the capacity of the paper tray, its abysmal, the second is that the printer advertises double sided printing, I assumed it was similar to the 6100, which automatically printed the reverse side of pages. Unfortunately the 5100 require manual removal of 1st side printed & then replacing that side into the feed tray correctly, the diagram provided is very misleading & makes double sided printing cumbersome & slow. Not impressed at all with that issue.
quite disappointing. Difficult to get set up and only printed black and white for some formats while colour for others. Difficult to find any solutions to fix issue. Have returned the product
I am happy with the ink system in this printer. There are a couple of things I don’t like better than my old printer. 1. Having to print with HP Smart print is not always easy. On my old HP I could just select print from a doc for example. Don’t seem to be able to do that now - have to save the document first.
2. The first page takes ages to get to print.
3. It doesn’t have the option to print double-sided. Such a waste of paper. Obviously I should have read the full spec more carefully but this is the thing that makes this printer “average” for me. Wish I had spent more for the next model up.
