Outstanding in Every Way
I love this printer! I purchased it two months ago and I have already printed out more than 700 photos on it.
Assembly: I found the assembly very easy. HP provides you with a simple set of instructions that make sense.
Photo transfer to computer: HP's sofware is user friendly. The transfer of photos is very fast.
Printing: HP provides you with a number of options-quick prints, different sizes, album pages-all of which work. The speed depends on your comput...

Slow, Very slow............
I am very disappointed in this printer. It is the slowest printer that I have ever owned. It takes forever to print out a page at the normal print setting. The print head will print one line and then pause for a second and then print the next lint and pause etcetera... etcetera, until the document is printed. I have spoken with tech support and after trying several different fixes there has been no improvement. I have tried this printer on several different machines running Windows XP PRO v...

A Frustrating Printer
I've found this printer to be, overall, annoying and frustrating. The paper tray will not hold a large amount of paper, necessitating frequent refills. Print quality is decent, but banding appears when printing some pictures.
The HP software included with the printer is awful. It runs three (3) programs in the background, when only one would suffice. When ink is low, it is curteous enough to remind you to refill it EVERY SINGLE TIME you start the computer or attempt to print something...

"One of the worst and loudest printer"
This is one of the loudest printer I have ever bought. I bought this printer because it was a photo printer and I needed one. This printer is so loud. This printer also gets the paper jamed. I bought a Epson C84 inkjet printer and it is so quiet and fast. I recommend the Epson Stylus C84 instead of the Hp 7260 printer.

Not Recommended
I received this printer On October 7, 2004. Initial results on my photo quality labels was impressive. But it didn't last. Soon the printer had problems pulling the paper into the printer and then alignment on my labels was off. Yesterday I printed some checks on cheque paper and the printing was not well aligned, i.e. crooked. I hope to return this item.

Great for photos and print art for a reasonable price.
After going through so many bad printers within a year (hp 3420 & 3320) I use this photo smart printer mainly for photos which does an exceptional job. However, if you are going to use the color ink and photo ink together, avoid printing any black and white documents, it will take forever and prints in an off-black color. For me this is minor, you would expect that if you don't use a black cartridge in most photo printers. I have seperate printer for document printing.
I also have thi...

A really great printer..until it breaks.
The Photosmart 7260 is a fabulous printer when it comes to print quality. When using the correct paper (I use the HP Premium Plus) you can get true photograph quality prints from your digital images. I really couldn't ask for better quality from that standpoint. The downside: I managed to get about 150 photos out of this printer before it decided to break on me. The mechanical gearing inside is loud and now gives me the most of my troubles. Often, the cartridges get stuck/jammed and a reset is ...

preforms well for me so far
I had a problem with the paper jamming on me also, until I realized it was a user malfunction, not the printer's fault. Now I have no problems with the printer at all. I haven't used it that much so far, but it does very well when I do use it.
If I was a company selling products like this I would get very frustrated at simple, impatient consumers blaming their problems on the product when a lot of the times it is simply user error.
Also, if one looks at the specs for this p...

Need a Reliable printer? Look elsewhere, no durability here
I've had the HP Photosmart 7260 for about one year and have experienced similar problems: Cradle sticking, Paper jamming, etc. Envelopes never print straight. Last night the printer decided to no longer accept the ink cartridges (which are new) and the cradle is stuck. I expect a printer to last longer than this and was dissapointed given the repuation of HP. This wouldn't be such a problem, but I operate a small home business relying on this printer and this is more than inconvenient...
