Summary for HP Photosmart 8050 Printer (Q6351A#ABA) ...- beware of defective paper-feed rollers
Notes on HP Photosmart 8050 Printer (Q6351A#ABA) ...- I like HP printers, but the paper-feed rollers have a defect so common that HP mails a kit free-of-charge to specifically address this problem: a plastic insert that goes in the paper tray, topped with a sandpaper-like material to coarsen the rollers. The kit works, but only temporarily. The paper feed errors returned a few months later, the kit no longer works, and HP will not do anything further once the printer's out of warranty.

Notes on HP Photosmart 8050 Printer (Q6351A#ABA) ...- For what I paid, this is a great printer. I have had less problems and breakdowns from this printer than I've had from any other printer. The print quality is very good. This printer sold me on possibly purchasing another HP....I love the hassle free printing. It's very frustrating to have a printer breakdown when you need it, this is a pretty reliable printer.

Notes on HP Photosmart 8050 Printer (Q6351A#ABA) ...- Used the printer off and on for both documents and photos, good print quality. Had it safely stored for a year. Been using it again very lightly I might add, and the USB port on the printer died. All the sudden no printer recognition. All HP can say - is it is probably cheaper to just buy a new one.

Notes on HP Photosmart 8050 Printer (Q6351A#ABA) ...- I hate this printer. I hate this printer. I hate this printer. The quality is terrible and 9 times out of 10 when I go to print, it says it is out of paper when it has a completly full tray of paper. Terrible print quality too even on the best settings after multiple calibrations and cleanings with HP photo paper. Colors are all wrong, completly the wrong shade and, visible imperfections throughout. Do not buy cheap printers on day after Thanksgiving sales. I learned my lesson. I am going to shoot this thing for entertainment then go buy a good printer, but no way will I ever buy another HP.

Notes on HP Photosmart 8050 Printer (Q6351A#ABA) ...- I purchased this product in February of 2006. By October of 2006, all of the sudden, I had problems with the paper feeding correctly. I called HP, I spoke with a sales person from Staples (where the printer was purchased) and they suggested I get a cleaning kit or check the type of paper I was putting in and cross checking with how the printer was defaulted in the computer to print. I did that and it still only works if I have a certain amount of paper (not too much, not too little) and if I give the top piece of paper a little push. It is the most frustrating thing to print anything!! When this printer actually does print something, it comes out nicely, but the effort is definately not worth 6-7 months worth of use. I would suggest to keep looking!!
