HP OfficeJet 7130 All-in-One Multifunction

 (46 customer reviews)

I recently purchased this printer after reading favorable reviews in PC publications. I was mainly interested in photo printing but wanted more versatility in order to reduce the clutter on an already overloaded desktop. I've been nothing but impressed with the printer since taking it out of the box. Setup was easy, although the steps are in an unusual order compared to other printers/peripherals that I've installed in the past - pay attention to the setup poster. It prints beautiful photos with vivid color and crisp detail. However, the speed has been the pleasant surprise: I typically print a 4x6 at the highest resolution in about a minute and an 8x10 in under four. Plain paper printing is also very good for everyday documents. The copier, scanner and fax functionalities all work as they should. An intuitive control panel and LCD display make every function very easy to use. The bundled software also allows control from your PC console and it's one of the nicer...Read more

My last HP Printer was the OfficeJet 1150c that never gave me any problems. I finally donated it after 6 loyal years to purchase the HP 7130xi because I expect the same great performance.The HP OfficeJet 7130 printer has way more options than one would need! I love the improved photo quality and quietness of the printer, but I did run into the issues below...As for things folks should watch out for:1 - The Automatic Paper Feeder (APF) wasn't assembled correctly on my unit and I've been waiting 3 months for HP to send replacement parts (4 calls to TS so far).

The transfer speed slows to a crawl so I end up using a USB card reader instead. 3 - Printer cartridges ink level can be checked online, but it will keep printing a large spool file even if it should stop. I ran out of color ink and wanted to switch to printing in...Read more

Perfect for small business, this printer combines all the functions of the previous "d" series by Hewlett Packard and adds a new one to the mix: A six-in-one memory card reader. It now has the economy of the high-yield #14 cartridges and the versatility of the units more targeted for home use (2210, 6110). The unit comes with a duplexer, a part that has to be bought separately in the other HP printer/copier/scanner/faxes. It is easy to use and it reduces paper consumption. This unit has enough memory to store up to one hundred faxes, has speed dial, and a document feeder; each making it quite the capable fax machine as well as a good all around printer. The 48 bit scanner makes it a great machine to capture photographs and documents with amazing detail. The copy feature has done nothing but improve in these machines over the last few years. The user has the ability to scale up or down the size of the copy that is being made. The copier is faster than it has ever been...Read more
