Choose to view, edit, and print photos with or without your computer. Use the convenient 2.5-inch color image display and simple front panel buttons to print directly from memory cards, from the HP Photo Proof sheet, or from PictBridge-enabled cameras using the front USB port.

Organize, edit, and fix photos with HP's Image Zone software. You'll print fast--4-by-6-inch photos print as fast as 27 seconds, and crisp, everyday black text and color graphics in up to 20 ppm. (All reported speeds are fastest possible under ideal conditions. Actual speeds will vary.)

More conveniences include a flexible paper tray that lets you print photos with or without borders on standard sizes of photo papers.

    We bought this after a big trip to the UK and Europe to print out my digital pics for my still analog mother. Needless to say, she wants a digital camera very badly for Christmas now.

    Its so easy to just pull your memory card from your camera, plug it into the printer and be able to zoom, crop and do basic editing (color balance, etc) right on the printer. We aren't even going to hook it up to a computer, becuase if you're just using it for pictures theres almost no need.

    I looked at the 8450 with networking and 8 print nozzles, but didn't think it was worth $80 more. Like I said, we arent even hooking it to a printer, let alone our network, and frankly I do not know how noticeable 2 more print nozzles are going to be when the pictures look this spectacular in the first place.

    Print speed is surprisingly fast, as I've been seeing 30seconds for a borderless 4x6.

    I definitely recommend it

    Clearing up redeye from photo cards is a major reason to choose the HP PhotoSmart 8150 and 8450 over HP's 7760 or all Canon or Epson printers.

    In looking for a printer for my daughter for Christmas, I settled on HP PhotoSmart 8150 for its size, convenience, and especially for the redeye removal from photos. However, when I tried to remove the redeye from a photo of my granddaughter on an SD card, the whole printer froze with a yellow screen and an error code (TBD). I did this at Office Depot.

    I went to Office Max and Best Buy to find the same result, trying to remove redeye on three different 8150s. Of interest, the same thing also occured with the 8450.

    Using the same photo on the SD card, I was able to remove redeye on comparable HP models 375, 2355, 2610, and 2710 in different stores.

    Once the printer locked up, pressing the cancel and on/off buttons did not clear the problem. I had to unplug the power to restart the 8150 and 8450 printers.

    Interestingly, the small HP 375 seemed to use the same algorithm as the 8150 and the 8450. This algorithm showed the photo when checking for redeye and cleared it (on the 375) or stated "No redeye detected" on photos without redeye. The other printers showed a "working" generic screen and did not state clearly if redeye was removed or not.

    I will amend this review when I find the error code.

    12-9-04: The error code for the HP 8150 is 881921DA or 8819217A, as seen on two different machines.

    I was given this printer in 2006 when my dad upgraded to a PhotoSmart C6180. He used it mostly for mixed printing, photos and documents. This replaced a DeskJet 980. The 8150 was used at home for schoolwork, documents, and some photos. I found it a wonderfully capable machine and enjoyed direct printing via PictBridge and through the media card reader.

    I took it to work for a large printing project. The 8150 drank 12 black cartridges and 32 color cartridges as it churned out hundreds of full-bleed, duplex pages. It was racing 3 OfficeJet 7680s and a tight deadline. It did fairly well, but the stress of the deadline and a couple of technical glitches were really too much to handle.

    My only complaint when using the 8150: sometimes it would grab two or more pages at a time. This was bad when doing duplex proofs or printing checks. The only solution was to print a page at a time and manually feed it the correct pages. Not so fun for unattended print jobs. I never had a paper jam, but sometimes if the paper input was too full it wouldn't pick up paper at all. No complaint with that, I just pull some paper out and it works.

    I used the printer at home with an HP desktop PC and shared it to laptops through the home wireless network. It worked well, but I wanted to get rid of the desktop and needed a way to connect it. I added an HP BT500 Bluetooth adapter to it last summer. HP TotalCare recommended I use the out of production BT300, but the only one I could find was $150. The BT500 worked perfectly for months and was less than $20. Printing an image from a cell phone was amazing and it was nice to be able to print without having the desktop running.

    Then the printer started crashing. The LCD would display a green screen with a power button icon and the code: 880B7418. HP TotalCare blamed the BT500, which I removed and made the printer happy again. For a few weeks we were back to printing with a direct USB connection. Now the 8150 is wireless again, connecting through a NetGear ReadyNAS/print server.

    All was well until last month when it crashed again when printing from an SD card. Total Care said the printer has faulty hardware and should be retired. As long as I use the printer without any front panel connections (USB/PictBridge or card reader), it is fine.

    I think it is a great printer, but beware if you are looking for a deal on a used one. Print a test image from a flash card, or plug in a USB Bluetooth adapter to see if you get a crash.

    The longevity of this product is sad, I still have a DeskJet 895cse that works like new. I'm looking forward to a new AIO from HP and hope it lasts longer than the 8150 did.

    This printer does a good job for those routine print requiremts. Although it is not an eprint model, you can purchase OPrint's printer software for about $19 and suddenly you have a complete wireless printing environment.
