Hewlett Packard Deskjet 952c InkJet Printer

Pros: quality color photos, fast, quiet
Cons: not cheap, photo paper expensive

We have had an old Hewlett Packard printer since we bought
our first computer many years ago. The printer was sufficient
but did not have the features that we grew to need, such as
photo printing, quality color printing, ability to...

Pros: A lot of features. Quality printing.
Cons: None,so far

This is my second printer. My first one was a refurbished BJC Canon 240 Color Bubble Jet Printer and was slow. It still is in good working order. I bought it with my first computer,a refurbished Old IBM 486.

I have to admit, I'm still...

Pros: Great output even on plain paper
Cons: Problems with single envelope feed

I bought the HP 952 printer because I had read favorable reviews in several computer magazines. After much research I narrowed my choices to the 952 and its less expensive cousin, the 932. The output on the 952 is excellent, even on plain paper....

Pros: Printing quality for both photos and type is excellent
Cons: The paper feed is a constant source of frustration. It does not work!

The paper feed on the first machine we received did not work. We took the machine back the second day we owned it and exchanged it for another.

We purchased our 952C for two users, myself and my wife.

My wife uses the 952C for photo...

Pros: Excellent photo quality
Cons: buggy, feeding problems, and many more.

I've had my HP DeskJet 952C for several months now. When I went to buy it the information I had gotten from the internet, as well as from the salesperson I spoke to, told me that the 952 was the same exact printer as the 970, with the exception that the...

Pros: Nice quality output, quiet, quick
Cons: None Yet

I have been a fan of HP printers for some time. My first color printer for personal use was an HP DeskJet 540C - it had the capacity for only one ink cartridge at a time - it was necessary to switch the cartridge to print in color. I bought mine when...

Pros: Reasonable cost, Fast, great quality, cancel button.
Cons: Pricey color cartridge, sometimes too much printer for average user (check 932C also).

Looking for a great printer that won't rob you blind? I purchased the 952C about 6 months ago, and would highly recommend this to just about anyone. I know that my opinion of HP's is a bit biased because for years that's the only ink jet printer I would...

Pros: Astounding Photo-quality prints, fast, quiet, sleek, economic (ink), versatile
Cons: People (not me) report paper misfeeds.

I am an architecture student, and I often have to print out very intense graphic-laden sheets. I bought the 952c because I, like everyone, read very good reviews about it. I was actually in the market for a larger format capable printer, but the $300...

Pros: Ease of set-up, quality of photos
Cons: none

Well, I was in the market for a printer that could handle photos. Wait a minute; my SPOUSE wanted me in the market for a printer that could handle photos!

I'd been happily using a Cannon BJC2100 for my printing jobs, until that fateful day...

Pros: ease of use and setup, high-quality output, fairly high ppm
Cons: 1st one broke

As a graphic designer, I was used to working with professional printers, and receiving materials printed on both offset printers and spit out of large copy-laser-printer combos like the Xerox Doc40. Then we ran into a problem with a specific project...

Pros: Excellent print quality, fast, good included software, quiet, inexpensive to operate.
Cons: Possibly not quite as good at photo printing as the six-color photo printers.

Over the last week, I looked around at the various options under $250 for photo-quality printing. Having a 2.1 megapixel camera and knowing such high resolutions are fairly useless without the ability to realize them through print, I thought it was...

Pros: Very sharp and colorful prints. Easy to use. Quiet. Fast. Price Drop of $100.
Cons: Color not as good with cheap paper. Inconsistent handling of odd-sized paper.

[ history ]
This is the final review in my trilogy of Printer Reviews (HP LaserJet 3150i and the Lexmark Z12 being the other two). While the Lexmark was a temporary printer, I purchased the HP 952c as my main color printer of choice. For the...

Pros: Excellent color mode.
Cons: Buggy Macintosh software, paper feed is not straight.

I bought this printer because I gave my HP 895Cse to my sister. Being that this was an "upgrade" and two years newer, my expectations were pretty high. Especially after the outstanding performance of my first HP printer!

The software that came...

Pros: Fast, quiet and good photo quality
Cons: Cost of ink cartridges

I had a HP DeskJet 870Cse printer and liked it very much. I never had a problem with it during the three years I used it. So when I decided to get new faster and better printer, I decided to stay with Hewlett Packard. I went to HP's home page and looked...

Pros: Speed / Incredible photo reproduction
Cons: Ink use

I picked this printer up at Office Max for $250 with some sort of mail-in rebate deal. This printer was to replace our older HP 693c model which had given out. This price range is typical of the higher-end inkjet market, but not as high as...
