Printer HP psc 1210

HP psc 1210


Hewlett-Packard refers to its HP PSC 1210 as an all-in-one device, rather than using the industry-standard term, multifunction printer (MFP). Still, by any moniker, this machine saves both space and money. Listing at $150, the device offers rudimentary color and monochrome printing, scanning, and copying. Plus, its intelligent design and driver interface make this all-in-one remarkably easy to use. Unfortunately, the 1210 offers even less than what you pay for, as evidenced by CNET's review of the similarly priced but more capable Lexmark X5150. In CNET Labs' tests, the PSC 1210 suffered from color-quality issues and paper-feed problems. If you want a multifunction printer with better performance, consider paying another $100 or so for the Canon MultiPass F60 or the HP PSC 2210.
