    Good Points: Neat design, separate tray for photo paper, 5 colour cartridges.


    Bad Points: Tray capacity could be better, although this is only a minor complaint.


    General comments: I plumped for an HP printer as these seemed to be the only ones with a separate tray for photo papers, I purchased this printer to replace a previous model that although still works well is getting a bit dated, printing on photo on the previous model was very hit and miss, as the paper had to be fed into a special slot which did not always work.

    On the C5180 you stack upto 20 or so photo cards. into a dedicated tray. when printing you can specify this tray and the printer rather neatly draws this tray into the machine and prints your photos in accordance with your preferences.

    Using 5 separate colour cartridges seems to give much better results as the output looks just as good as normal photos.

    I was very pleased overall with the printer, although setting it up was slightly problematical. my advice to anyone is to follow the advice given to close all other programs and to disable your virus software, I use Kaspersky and this caused no end of problems and meant I had to backout the set up (thankfully done automatically by the HP software) and re install again

    Scanning is much faster then my previous cannon standalone scanner.

    In summary this is a very neat, quite running machine that I would recommend.
