This printer is the biggest piece of crap I've ever owned. Considered a "photo" printer, it left horrid lines through everything, even on best quality with glossy photo paper. It also only works when it wants to with Windows Vista Operating Systems... The printer CAME WITH a Windows Vista based Laptop computer, but it has never worked properly with Windows Vista, each time completing the install stating "Vista" as the OS, it only wants to work with my two Windows XP computers. Every time I attempt to print from the laptop it came with, it asks me to reinstall the drivers because they can't be located, and then when I do, the printer STILL only works about 1/10 of the time. It's not even worth the effort.

What a crock. Honestly, I purchased this particular laptop because of the printer option, I would have been better off spending the extra money on another printer instead!

You said that it didn't work for the laptop but it did work with the other two computers using Windows XP. How does it work with them? I would be interested in knowing how they work with XP since that is what I have.
