Installing the drivers and software took about 15 minutes. Once we got the hang of it, there were no further problems. Error messages popped up during the the first few printing attempts because the paper was not slid all the way into the cassette. There are slots for 4圆-inch photo paper and a tray below that for up to 8.5x11-inch paper. Paper loads easily into the cassettes which reside underneath but extending out from the front of the printer. Installation involves raising a separate, spring-loaded, plastic collar/latch for each cartridge, inserting them face out, and then closing and securing the latch.
Installing the ink cartridges was not difficult, but the cartridges, which are small house-shaped plastic boxes, are unlike other printer manufacturers' cartridges, so there might be a small learning curve. The total time for physical setup was approximately 10-15 minutes from the time the box was opened to being ready for software installation. Unpacking the printer, loading paper, connecting the power cord, and installing the software was an easy process. If necessary, this snaps on easily, and the printer is virtually ready to go out of the box. The test unit came fully assembled, although it is possible that other C5180 printers may be shipped with the control panel faceplate unattached. HP does a good job with using recycled and recyclable packaging. The power supply and cord comes in the box along with a setup guide, basics guide, installation CD, and 1-year limited warranty. The design is simple featuring lots of graphics and large type, leading the user through unpacking the printer, loading paper, installing the ink cartridges, and installing software and drivers.īesides the HP Photosmart C5180 printer itself, the package includes six ink cartridges: black (16 ml), cyan (4.5 ml), magenta (4.5 ml), yellow (4.5 ml), light cyan (4.5 ml), and light magenta (4.5 ml). The Setup Guide makes the setup process very easy. Photosmart printers often include the name “Photosmart” and the model name or number in the upper left-hand corner of the printer’s front face.Introduction Setup / Drivers and Software HP printers can be identified by the HP logo, which includes the name “HP” in lowercase font inside of a circle. Some Photosmart printers include all-in-one capabilities meaning that the printer can print, scan, and copy documents and photos. The HP Photosmart line includes some compact photo printers but mainly features color inkjet printers. HP produced its first inkjet printer (the HP Thinkjet) in 1984. Inkjet printers are the most common type of printer.
Canon, HP, Epson, and Brother account for the majority of inkjet printer sales in the worldwide consumer market. In the 1970s, Epson and Hewlett-Packard developed inkjet printers that could reproduce digital images generated by computers. Inkjet printing technology was developed mainly during the 1950s, and the first inkjet printer was developed by Ichiro Endo for Canon. Inkjet printing recreates a digital image by propelling droplets of ink onto paper and plastic substrates. This page is for HP’s line of consumer-based photo printers under the “Photosmart” name. Note that “Photosmart” is also the name of a line of HP digital cameras. The HP Photosmart is a brand of inkjet printers produced by Hewlett-Packard.
