Pros: Built in networking, inexpensive ink, waterproof photos, reasonably priced. Works great with Windows Vista.
Cons: Occasionally and unexpectedly goes into a self-cleaning mode.
The Bottom Line: Highly recommended. It's stylish, but at the same time offers individual ink cartridges, and improved photo quality, as well as speed and ease of use.

Pros: Modestly-priced cartridges, trouble-free, convenient
Cons: Does quite a dance when printing more than 20 pages at "General Printing" mode.
The Bottom Line: Buy this printer, you'll love it! Both the paper and the cartridges load easily, ink is modestly priced, and jams and other problems are rare.

Pros: Small, compact, pleasing design. Easy front-loading for ink. Easy back-access for paper jams.
Cons: Slow. Noisy. Shakes desk. Freezes computer during printing. Poor color quality printing from the web.
The Bottom Line: The HP C5180 is an OK, small, fairly easy printer if color quality, print speed, or noise don't matter. If these are issues for you, look further before buying.
