Based on the popular HP P1000, the HP PhotoSmart 1215 photo printer directly accepts CompactFlash and SmartMedia cards and prints wirelessly from infrared devices.

A year and a half ago, I purchased everything I needed for my first computer. I did a lot of research and went way wrong with highly recommended Dell computer. But, based on what I could see at the store (the clerks at CompUSA are not too eager to help) I bought this printer. It has been the best purchase of my computing experience. Photos are flawless, as is everything else I print with this printer. It seeems to do what it is supposed to and musch more incredibly well.

I love my PhotoSmart 1215 but was a little discouraged when the driver for XP was not available. The neat thing about this printer is, if you mainly use it to print photos from a memory card, you don’t have to be connected to your PC. Just know which numbers you want to print, enter and off it goes. The quality of my prints has been great. Right now it’s connected to my iMac and is doing splendidly. It’s quite dependable and not expensive. I’d recommend it highly.*****

This has been a great printer for me. I regularly print both 4×6 and letter size photos. The quality is outstanding, and the automatic paper sensor is a good feature. I had absolutely no problems with set up. The only improvement would be to print borderless.

I have had this printer for over a year and I still get compliments almost daily on the gorgeous pictures I can print on this machine!… I print fairly heavy quantities of pictures and have had the paper jam maybe once. This is definately worth the money. I have purchased 2 other printers since this one, trying to see if I could get better or quicker pictures. The other two printers have gone to the wayside (one is now attached to the kids computer). There was no comparison in speed or quality…the HP was by far better! It even produces awesome picts with remanufactured ink cartrides at a much lower cost. Overall…great printer!…

I have numerous printers available in my office for different functions. My Photosmart 1215/1218 gets all the work. It’s fast, reliable, great quality and we have not had 1 minute of down time. Also, I purchased the auto-duplex unit that enables the printer to print 2 sided documents. Super easy to use and still very fast! The printer can be tricky to install, however when I upgraded to Windows XP, XP easily set it up for me. If you don’t have XP, be sure to follow directions carefully. I was so pleased with the printer; I bought a second for my son to take to college.
