I have had this printer for about 10 years. It has not given me any trouble and meets all my printing needs. Using glossy paper produces fantastic results from photos. I have printed on paper from 8og to 160g without any problems at all. My only gripe, and this applies to all inkjet printers, is the exorbitant cost of the ink cartridges. It is about time their price was reduced by at least 50 percent, especially with the colour cartridges when it is usually only the yellow which runs out!

I have had this Hewlett Packard Deskjet 840C inkjet printer for one and a half years. It is a very basic and slow (but cheap) printer. Not for printing 200 pages in a row. Very satisfied with it. Very good quality of printing. Use it mostly in ink saving mode, which is also the fastest, but have also printed scanned (with resolution of 1200x1600) from 35mm color film photos on A4 Pelikan Photo Paper and they really look good. Of course it is slow, and therefore not for the professional or heavy duty use. And no problems with reliability so far. Touch wood.
