Summary: Don't Buy This One!!!
Comment: Sound like a broken record? It is very frustrating having to load EVERY single sheet of paper into the feeder; but believe me, you too will have the pleasure if you purchase this printer. No doubt it's a product defect. Do yourself a favor, save your sanity and frustration...buy a different one.

Summary: Cleaning the Roller Solved Problem!
Comment: I too have been frustrated beyond belief with the out of paper and paper jam problems of this printer. I read all 80 reviews before mine and concluded, (as did others), that it must be a dirty pickup roller causing most of the problems. Many say that the problem started a month or two after getting the printer, which reinforces this theory.
I opened the back access panel and cleaned the single black paper feed roller with rubbing alcohol on a Q-tip. Apparently it doesn't take much dust or dirt to cause a problem because it did not appear to be very dirty. I'm assuming I'll have to do this every few months. The next time I will probably just use purified or distilled water like HP suggests since rubbing alcohol might be too strong an agent for cleaning the roller.
I loaded between 10 and 25 sheets into the printer as HP suggests, and it is now working like it did when it was new. Next I tried putting in as much paper as it would hold and it still works perfectly! I have always liked HP printers and if it weren't for this glaring weakness, I would give it 5 stars.

Summary: No Problems to speak of...
Comment: After reading the reviews on this site, I was very wary to buy this particular printer, but for 60 dollars after a rebate I couldn't resist. I have had NO complaints whatsoever. I have printed many 4x6 photos, all of which look just as good as a professional copy. Also, the 1 touch option to copy and scan are amazing and quick. I think that the people reviewing this product may have had an older version of the printer, either that or I may have just gotten lucky. Either way, I would go out on a limb and say this is the best printer I have ever purchased, price included.

Summary: DON'T BUY THIS PRINTER
Comment: I purchased a brand new HP Photosmart 2575 All-In-One printer in November 2005. I hardly have used it except to print an occasional e-mail. However, this week I scanned and printed about 30 - 4" x 6" photos which I have to admit came out nice, but then the printer stopped working and now the paper keeps jamming and I cannot print anything. I called HP support and they told me my warranty had expired and they could not assist me but that for a fee I could extend the warranty and they would look into the problem. Hello, is anybody home? Why would I extend the warranty on something that no longer works and for which I have read a hundred or so bad reviews from others who are also having the same problem with this junk printer? In any event, after reading the many many reviews with the same problem I bought a Canon Pixma MP 800 that I cannot wait to receive. I won't let HP waste any more of my time by giving me the run around, but I will report them to the Better Business Bureau for making a faulty product and then not admitting it or trying to properly assist me and solve my problem without first trying to get me to pay more money for a warranty extension. That's an awful way to do business.

Summary: Paper feeder stopped working after 2 months
Comment: I bought this printer from Sam's Club, and it worked great for about 2 months. After that, the paper feeder was unable to recognize paper - in order to print anything, the paper had to be manually fed through the printer. Fortunately, Sam's was great and gave me a full refund. Buyer beware!
I bought the Canon Pixma MP600 - we'll see how that one works.
