Reliability—a time and money saver

Reliability is an easy thing to take for granted. But in your printer, it means printing what you want, when you want, and getting the results you want—effortlessly. Here’s why it matters, and what HP does to ensure that our products meet exacting standards so that you get beautiful prints every time.

There are plenty of “low-cost” printing solutions out there, but in the long run, the costs aren’t so low. Do any of these sound familiar?

  • “I had to reprint the card I made four times to get one good enough to send!”
  • “My term paper had so many smears, my teacher made me redo it.”
  • “My photo didn’t look like a photo at all—it looked like a photocopy.”

Avoid those frustrations with a reliable, versatile printer. It saves you money and time because you get stunning results with every print. No do-overs. In fact, HP printers have earned PC Magazine’s Readers Choice award for service and reliability for 16 years straight, a history we strive to live up to with every innovation.

HP printers, inks, and papers are designed to work together. This means you get the best results, no matter what you’re printing, or what material you’re printing on. For instance, you might want to print:

  • business cards on brochure paper for a feeling of substance
  • photos on glossy or matte photo paper to frame and display
  • fabric designs—or photos—onto iron-on transfer paper or fabric for sewing projects

With the compatible qualities of HP printers, paper, and inks, you can count on stunning results, wherever your imagination takes you.

Award-winning innovation

We take a lot of pride in the awards we win and the reviews we receive for our printers and service. For example, in a recent USA Today side-by-side review of the Kodak EasyShare 5300 and the HP C5180, it was stated: “The two printers belong in the same ballpark, but I'd give the edge to HP on photo print quality.” We also received the first-ever Technological Innovation Award for the HP Universal Print Driver for Windows®. It’s just one more way we keep improving our printing technology to ensure that every time you print, you get the results you want.

Here are a few more samples of recent reviews:

“If you’re looking for a solid jack-of-all-trades, check out the HP Photosmart C7180. We found that it had the right mix of features, speed, and quality.”

PC Magazine Editors' AwardOf course, the key question to ask of any photo printer is, "Does it print good photos?" In my tests the A716 hit true photo quality on every photo, from snowscapes to landscapes to close-ups of faces.
