Awesome printer 
2007-12-30
I bought this printer for myself two years ago and it's still going strong. I recently bought one for my daughter for Christmas here at Amazon and it was only $68 with free shipping. I looked today and the price is back up over $300. I don't know if I got a great deal or if Amazon screwed up. I do love this printer and if mine died today, I'd buy another HP. I am a serious hobbyist photographer and scrapbooker and these prints are beautiful. I'll never go back to online printing.

pictures on the go

A good way to travel and be able to share pictures with other members who want pictures on the spot.
HP Photosmart A716 may be better but 475 is great too 2007-01-10
I can only comment on the HP Photosmart A716 which I own. I love the 4gb of storage and the ability to edit pictures. The 475 only has 1.5 gb of storage. I am sure the 475 prints quality pictures as well. The reason why I think A716 may be better than 475 is that it has more internal memory to store photos and it is cheaper on Amazon. Just compare the two before you buy. You may get more with the A716 at a cheaper price.

The best just keeps getting better 2006-11-10
We bought this for our daughter's first grade classroom. We chose it after owning an HP 385 for over a year. We really like the 385, and the 475 is an improvement to it at a better price.
LOVE MINE 2006-11-06
My dad got me this for christmas and a camera. I love it. I have printed hundreds of pictures. I even used it for a wedding i took pics of. Everyone liked the pics and didn't even know i used my little printer.
Excellent prints, easy to use 2006-08-17
Bought this after seeing a Kodak printer in use at a family reunion and was impressed with that printer as well. The HP's ability to print 5x7 is what sold me on it, though. The prints are great and the 5x7, although only an inch larger each way, is a much larger picture. Tried croping on it and then printing, very easy to do and you do not need a PC. Would definately recommend this to anyone that wants to print their own photos and would even be handy on vacation to unload photos off a memory card since it has a 1.5gig HD in it for storage.
SLOPPY INTERFACE & Poor Ergonomics 
2006-07-28
Rushed to market with a poor user interface!
HP ignored the long line of easy-to-use user interfaces from preceding product lines of their 130, 230, 245, 375 & even the same model year 385.
Insert a memory card into the slots and watch quickly to see how many photos are on the card, because it disappears quickly, never to be seen again ... very unlike it's predecessors and companion portable printers from HP.
The first photo that appears on the screen is the last one you took, but there's no way to find out where you are on the card as you flip back and forth among the photos on the card.
Zooming in and cropping a photo works great, until after you hit the print button ... the crop box remains on the screen giving you the impression that if you press the print button again you'll get a cropped photo ... Surprise! The printer then prints the entire uncropped photo.
Press the menu key, and go into "improve image" and then "photo brightness" ... using the left / right arrows, the brightening / darkening is circular, so you can go around and around from light to dark or dark to light ... something that you could not do with other HP portable printers. The catch ... you have to SAVE the photo before the printer allows you to print the 'brightened' / 'darkened' photo, something that the previous models of these portable printers didn't require.
The only way to use the handle is to make sure that the pop-up viewing screen is down...
Photos with a border are a challenge, especially when you're printing from the computer.. the printer doesn't feed the paper in far enough before the ink hits the page, resulting in a photo that's skewed to the left and not centered on the page.
Maybe the next version will fix all these mis-steps.
