Good Points: Photo quality is great.
Bad Points: Breaks easy and HP does not stand behind product.
General comments: I bought the HP Photosmart 7960 from Office Depot and spend over $300 doing so. 4 months later it broke down and no longer printed light magenta. After weeks of communication with HP they determined it needed to be replaced but that my warranty had expired! Evidently your 1 year warranty is actually a 4 month or less warranty! Oh they did offer to send me a "refurbished" printer at a cost of another $129 and I would have to send them my broken one at my expense.
Needless to say they did not get another $129 of my money! So after 8 months without a printer trying to decide what to do I decided I had to buy another HP photosmart because I had well over $100 worth of ink I had purchased already. So I bought a new HP photosmart online for much cheaper then HP's refurbished one. Guess what? Yep, no light magenta on this one either!
I'm not going to bother trying to get support from HP for this second one since they were of no help with the first one. My advise is DO NOT BUY THIS PRINTER!!! HP does not stand behind their product, or at least not this printer. Don't you find it odd that 2 brand new printers would have the very same problem? I sure do! But I find it disgusting that HP does not stand behind their product.
Beware, if you buy this printer your doing so at the risk of wasting a lot of time and money like I did.
As for print quality, it's great! But using 3 ink cartridges at a cost of $30 or more a piece, it is a little cheaper to print them at your local store!

Well, the office has gone out and bought another printer! As if we haven't got enough!? This however is a true printer and one to get excited about! The thing I like about the HP Photosmart 7960 is it offers exceptional graphic quality yet it is available for the home user. In our office, we quite frequently purchase large proof printers that cost us into the thousands, these are really professional printers that one would not typically buy for the home PC (for start they might not fit in your s ...

I was looking for a quality printer specifically for photo printing. I wanted to be able to easily print off snapshots directly from my camera or media card onto borderless 6x4" media, while also being able to print quality black & whitle photo's in larger sizes. Most photo printers I tried left a colour tint on b&w photo's, so imaes didn't have the crispness of an analogue photo. So I was delighted to see HP had addressed this issue with their new Photosmart range. The 7960 is the flagship mode ...
