Mark Wilson – To be honest, I was out to buy the cheapest printer ink I could find. The HP Photosmart 6510 e-All-in-One offered the right price and the right level of quality. I also want to say it is very durable so far, and I feel it will work well for some time to come.

Clara Coleman – Even though HP printers tend to be mixed in terms of print quality, the HP Photosmart 6510 e-All-in-One is definitely one of the better ones. I do not hesitate to recommend this printer to anyone that wants good quality photo and text printing.

What users don't like about the product

·    ink hog 
·    must use HP paper to get good print quality

Nancy Bell – I bought this printer thinking that it would save ink as well as produce good quality documents. Unfortunately, the HP Photosmart 6510 e-All-in-One did not live up to my expectations in this department at all.

Charles Stevens – When I first bought this printer, it seemed like the printing was quite poor.  I called the company and was told to use paper manufactured by HP.  Even though that helped, this paper is more expensive than other brands.  That makes me very disappointed with the overall performance of the HP Photosmart 6510 e-All-in-One.
 
Recommendations

For the most part, we feel that the HP Photosmart 6510 e-All-in-One is a reasonably good choice for anyone that wants a good quality printer.  That said, if ink consumption and paper cost will present a problem, you should look to other models.  This includes ones from other manufacturers that will work well with any kind of paper.
