Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Poor reliability and mechanical design
I agree with the few who say that don't believe all the reviews. "Built like a tank" is not a good thing on this case, especially when you have previously had some Canon Pixma printers that have excellent engineering. Tube of vaseline required to move/remove paper trays smoothly on D9180 is NOT included with the printer. And it is noisy.
I have used my printer very little and still it has developed fault where it does not understand when specialty media tray is lowered, rendering that ... Read More
Rating:  - Excellent with XP, need some Vista work arounds...
I've been comparing printers to upgrade my Photosmart 8750 for the B9180 - all said and done, HP is still ahead of the Canon and Epson photo printing peers. Taken, HP's customer service and tech support sucks, depending on who you get you may get different answers, some more helpful than others but with some luck I was able to proof the following workarounds I found on other bbs and tech support validated:
- Under vista, I was having trouble with 13x19 too, borderless leaving a 1 1/2 inch ... Read More

HP Photosmart Pro B9180 Printer
Do yourselves a favor and get a Canon, or maybe an Epson. HP no longer makes products like the HP-41C I used to carry proudly when I was an engineering student 30 years ago. Yes if and when you are blessed and the unit works it turns out beautiful prints, but then so do similar printers from other manufacturers. Don't be fooled by all the comments about this printer being "fantastic" or "built like a tank", the moment you power it up you start hearing the worrying ... Read More
Rating:  - Beware of this printer!
I bought this printer a little over a year ago and was never able to print more than ten pictures reliably. The paper would jam halfway through nearly every print job. The few times the printer managed to complete a job, the results were decent, however these were few and far between.
After approximately 10-11 months of trying various paper and setting combinations, I finally gave in and called HP's tech support. I'd read many reviews of this experience and I was prepared for the worst. Sadly, ... Read More
Rating:  - Great if you're not in a hurry and you're a system administrator
I am running Windows XP Professional with 2 GB of RAM on a Pentium IV 2.4 GHz CPU and Photoshop CS2. I am printing to the printer via Ethernet on a 100 Mbit/s switch.
Pros:
1) I love the consistently good "lab quality" print quality that the printer produces.
2) I love the high level of color controls that are provided through the Photoshop plug-in.
3) I also love, of course, the ability to do borderless printing at 13x19.
4) I also love the fact ... Read More
