HP PhotoSmart 325 Compact Photo Printer

I sent this back. Here's why: The printer appeared to be like most HP printers, quality and easy to setup. Not as easy as it should have been, as the photo paper feeds from the back, and spits out the front. Additionally, things are changing at HP and while I'd never own one of their laptops, I've been brand loyal to them for their printers since the late 1980s. Their laser printers seem to last forever and I've never had one quit on me, even after years of service. I give or sell them when I no longer need them, rather than trash/recycle them. The last one, I donated to a local charity b/c I needed a network printer. (With a family, the number of devices that need to print add up.) Ditto their ink jets and photo printers. They last forever, too. However, HP has decided that when they discontinue to produce a printer, they want to force their customers to "upgrade". In our home/home office, we use both Mac Os 10.11.2 El Capitan and Windows 10 on the PCs. I couldn't obtain the drivers for either for this printer. That's how they gotcha. You cannot upgrade the drivers so you must get another, more expensive printer, to stay current. I purchased this to upgrade my still-working, but old Photosmart 7150. That photo printer is awesome as it can print 8x10s as well as the smaller 4x6s . Sadly, there are no drivers for this printer for the 7150 either. I'm keeping the Photosmart 7150 since it still works and I have one old PC I built that runs Windows 7. At least I have something that can use it. That PC has been in storage and I've brought it back into service, specifically for that reason. Crazy, right? I do not like how HP has forced me to upgrade. I also ordered ink for it and that's going back, too. I order so much from Amazon and I don't return much, but this was a true disappointment. Lesson learned: Never buy a printer that is manufacturer discontinued. Save your money and try and buy the latest and greatest so it will last the longest. After this experience, I ordered a Polaroid photo printer from Apple. Too bad Amazon didn't have those. Another gripe on "modern ink jets" from many manufacturers. I have a home office. Therefore, I already own a fax, and two different types of scanners, plus a laser printer. I just needed an inkjet printer to print photos and photos only. All the photo printers on the market, it seems, are three-in-ones. Even though they are relatively inexpensive, I don't want to buy what I do not need. At our beach home, a three-in-one was perfect. Here, just plain useless. Used to, such three-in-one printers did none of the fax/scan/copy/print very well. Not so anymore. However, I'd like the choice to just buy a plain old photo printer without all the add ons. I have a nice HP Laserjet networked printer in the home office. I hope I don't have to upgrade it in the near future! When purchasing any brand of ink jet printer these days, buyer beware.

We have one of these at my workplace. It was too slow (1 min per pic) and we needed a faster one. We have gone thru 2 expensive printer and we are back to using this one. Why? the other printers, if not used often will get clogged printhead. cleaning the printhead did not help, needed to buy new printheads. This little printer sat under my desk when they retired it for over a year. Turned it on one day, when our expensive printer would not work, and it printed beautiful pictures. I was sure it would not work, the printheads would be clogged, but it is the most dependable printer I have seen. So I bought myself one for home. Kind of expensive so I went searching on Amazon and found a brand new one for 55.00. So if you are looking for a quality photo printer, HP Photosmart is the best buy.

Was not what I was looking for.

Came with no power supply which was not advised in product description, instead rated as "like new" when it isn't. So have no idea if it works. Not happy [yet]

i didnt open this product right away, working way to much when i did open it i was very excited when i put my camer chip into the photo printer nothing but blue screen. i could not print or view my photos. is my chip compatible with the device YES!! i have the exact model but i had it a long time and will not print, but it does show the photos.thats why i purchased this one because its the perfect size. yes i know the printer was used but in the discription it said only used a few times just like new. well they lied. can i get a refund hell no its past 30 days.

Good.unit but pricey

I have had this printer many years prior, and when my last bargain photo printer gave up the ghost I decided to return to what was best. Easy to use, excellent color and clarity, top quality for the money.

I put a brand new cartridge in & the printer didn't work. The printer quality was poor at best. I was extremely disappointed considering it was labeled very good/like new condition. I would never order from this buyer again.
