ITReviews reviews the HP Photosmart C5180 and writes, “HP’s all-in-ones continue to march on, yet this generally impressive machine has some surprising omissions that might make you think twice before buying similar models at a comparable price.”
“HP claims the C5180 has ‘the world’s fastest photo printing speeds’, with 15 x 10cm (6 x 4-inch) images at ‘best’ quality in 12 seconds, documents at 32ppm in mono and 31ppm in colour. In practice the 15 x 10cm photos averaged around 20 seconds and typical text documents reached 10ppm, which is still admirable. … The lack of PictBridge capability allied to the faded quality of scanned documents and off-colour scanned photos make this a disappointing addition to the usually exemplary Photosmart series, although you will still have fast reproductions and excellent prints from memory cards.”
