The device is PC- and Mac-compatible it works with Windows Vista as well, which is a plus. The C6280 supports an impressive array of media type that includes cards, banners, labels, envelopes, photo paper, plain paper, greeting cards, transparencies, and iron-on transfers however it does not print CD/DVD labels. You can also scan directly to a memory card. You can send a scanned image to a folder on your computer or attach the file to an email. The CIS scanning element is capable of producing scans of reasonably good quality. The digital copier can reduce a document to 50% of its size and enlarge it 400%. Page yield varies from 240 to 500 pages for the color ink cartridges and is 660 pages for black ink. The device uses a six-ink system wherein six ink cartridges are filled with black, cyan, light cyan, magenta, light magenta, and yellow inks. The HP C6280 inkjet cartridge printer measures 17.6 x 17.4 x 7.4 in and weighs 22.7 lbs.

The Photosmart C6280 promises print speeds of up to 34 ppm for monochrome and 33 ppm for color printouts. The machine is a bit of a mixed bag when it comes to features available, for instance even though it is ostensibly a photo AIO, it does not have PictBridge compatibility which means you cannot print directly from the printer. and i wouldn't have minded the cd label maker another model featured, but the built in ethernet connection was more important on an all in one to me.īottom line- a nice little all in one, w/ good features, nice quality printing/scanning, at a nice price.The HP Photosmart C6280 ink printer is an All-in-one which is in the sub $200 range. No fax didn't really make or break the deal, though it would have been nice. if you can pick one up for under $100 (usd), i say go for it. I've only had the printer for a month or so, and i don't do a whole lot of printing, so i can't speak for ink usage or longevity of the printer.

the software for network connection is goofy, as is all hp software (could be a windows issue, as most problems w/ pc's is that they run a microsoft os).

it's not the best of scans, but i've seen a lot worse. text print quality is nice and clear, the 4圆 prints i've printed look awesome (note: only buy hp photo paper, i found out the hard way), the scans are better than my previous all in one and the stand alone scanner. dispite hearing that the print quality was poor and all the other gripes about this printer, i still bought it. I really looked into this and a few other printers before settling on this one.
