My 5 year old HP printer broke and couldn't be repaired. I tried a new comparable HP from a big box store...very flimsy so I returned it, determined to get my hands on the older model. Bought a used one from Techquidate and it arrived in less than a week. Very clean, like new, and works perfectly so far. Glad I was just replacing an identical one as the used one didn't come with the install disk or the cord to connect it to the computer...both of which I had. But I am SO happy that I found a used one that works great.

Printer arrived sticky with tape residue all over top. In side has a black smudge that is all over the flat parts. I replaced the ink cartridges with new ones, and it printed off an alignment page and a scan page. Now it will not print anything from the computer. It was the same model that I had previously, so no installation was needed. What the heck is happening? I understood from my repair man Rino Supply was a good company and I took him at his word. I will now have to wait until Monday to get any help from him, with the weekend. I am considering returning it to Amazon for a refund. I love this computer C5280 because I make cards and do photos. My old one always printed beautifully, so I thought this one would also.
I am really bummed about this.
Beware of used items. I do not know how this one even got shipped.

My C5280 printer/scanner/copier is new to me, but not to my household (we have another one in house, purchased approx. 1 yr ago). I especially liked the 5280 because the Roxio Express Labeler came bundled with this particular unit, and I wanted another printer in my home which could print more than the rudimentary label on printable CDs/DVDs. My previous HP D5460 was designed to print on printable discs, but Roxio no longer produces the necessary software that will support that particular printer (D5460)....a bad decision in my view.

The HP C5280 is everything I need for my home office/use.

The main reason why I purchased this machine was to print directly onto cds/dvds. I had to get a special program and template on the net to get cd printing up and running. After that, I created some pretty stunning cds. The ink ran out too fast. I found that purchasing the photo ink made my cds look better and non smudge. I spent about $60 in ink/blank cds/cellophane/cases to print 25 cds. I could have gone through a company and had them printed with cover art and cases for less money. My purchase was made back in 2008, I still have the unit. I use it mainly for scanning documents- which was great until another problem arose after time. If your ink runs out you have to go through the hassel of the screen's ink cartridge bull/set-up every time you turn the machine on. That, to me, is not good. So, if I need to scan a document I need to run out and buy ink if I don't want to go through screens and screens of garbage to finally get to scan something.
Like I said, I really need it for scanning things now- It gets the job done, but at a price of your time and your money. Find something better.

I bought this as a replacement for an HP 885 that I used for 8 years. I had 0 problems with that printer. There seeem to be many software conflicts with this one and I have had to erase and reload the software twice to get it to work properly. It is an ink hog. I don't know why anyone would want to used it to print digital photos unless of course you would't want to go to lab. the scanner/ copier/ printer funtions are easy to use once you get the software issues resolved.

Here @ home I'm known as the "Techno Retard" so I'm always on the lookout for something even I can understand! Just installed it (actually my hubby did it for me)last night. The features look outstanding - can't wait to try them ALL - so far have downloaded/printed some pix from the internet onto white cardstock (school project) and they look fabulous! (of course since my last HP printer "crapped out" over a week ago, I've been unable to print anything!!!) E-mailed my son @ college about some of the features & since he's the (non) resident "king" of cool printing jobs, he mentioned that he might be taking over my printer for a day or 2 while home for Christmas holidays!!! I'll share - since he helps me out & doesn't me feel too dumb! All-in-all, I'm happy with it!

This purchase is wonderful, like new and it came with two new cartridges. It arrived quickly and the packaging was fantastic. It would have had to be run over by a truck to be harmed the way it was packaged. Of course the printer is wonderful, it's an HP. I had one just like it for years and it always worked flawlessly. You can't beat HP products.

After reading mixed reviews about using this machine with a Mac I called HP and was told it would work with a Mac, " no problem". After receiving the machine and found it would not work with a Mac, I again called HP and was told ,"well it will sorta work with a Mac if you don't want to use all of the machines features, some of them will work and some won't." I returned it to Amazon for a full refund. Five stars for Amazon , Zero stars for HP.
