I bought the HP Deskjet D1530 Inkjet printer about 2 years ago and I am still using it! I had it hooked to my old HP computer that came out in 2000 and the printer worked with it wonderfully, now I bought a new HP computer this year, and my Dell printer wasnt compatible, so I plugged my my reliable HP Deskjet and Windows installed it automatically and we were off to printing again! I print a lot of coupons and a lot of pictures.  The print quality is unbelievable for the price I paid on this printer.  The black and tri colored cartridges are a little high, but they last quite awhile.  The printer does not take up much room on my desk, I never have a problem with my papers falling to the floor after printing or anything like that.  Every once in awhile there is a paper jam that is hard to get to, that is the only negative I have regarding this printer.  It's a great quality, inexpensive printer that will last you above and beyond the higher priced ones.

I bought this printer knowing it was older so that it could be refilled easily. Compared to the all-in-one machines, these ink jet cartridges are more economic to refill. It does not have all the bells and whistles but prints things well in black and white very well, and is acceptable in color. It prints fast and does not drain ink too quickly, but is a little noisy. The plastic piece that holds the paper after it prints should be longer, as paper tends to fall out. Also the printer does not include a USB cable nor a black ink cartridge (that must be purchased separately before the printer can be used). The printer is very compact and can be tucked away out of sight (unlike the bulky all-in-one machines). It has a good design and looks very modern. The response time is as expected (somewhat slower), but I have never had the printer not function or cancel a print job on its own. This simple, basic printer is easy to operate for even the most novice of users.
