#HP PHOTOSMART 7515 BUNDLE EDITION DRIVER#
We can understand that duplex engines may need large page margins, but still feel the driver software should let you know.īlack text print is clean and well formed and draft mode is still very workable, though with some jitters, due to misalignment of successive head passes. When printing duplex, the machine appears to use different inks for front and back sides of pages and to automatically reduce the size of page images, though not by as much as Kodak Heroes do. Photos printed quickly, with a 15 x 10cm image coming through at between 45s and 1:05, depending on source. Our black text and colour graphics print produced 4.6ppm, only about half the rated figure, though a single page copy completed in 19s. Print duplex pages, and the speed drops back to 4 sides per minute, as there are noticeable waits for ink drying between sides. Under test, though, we saw 6.7ppm on the five-page black print test, rising to 10.7ppm on the 20-page one.
HP rates the Photosmart 7510 at 13.5ppm for black print and 9ppm for colour, both respectable speeds if they’re realised. Supplied software is HP’s normal bundle, including PhotoCreations, Solutions Center and Smart Web Printing, but there are also downloadable apps for pre-designed forms and access to your Facebook photos, among many other things. These include two blacks, with a higher capacity cartridge of pigmented ink to handle text. Hinge up the whole of the upper section of the machine and the head carrier slides to the centre of the carriage to present its five ink cartridges. The first 20 incoming and outgoing faxes each month are free. You can also send faxes wirelessly this way, using eFax, without needing a phone line. This is the better way to do things, as in addition to HP’s ePrint facility, the machine supports Apple’s Airprint for easy transfer of documents from iPhone, iPod and iPad. There’s a single USB socket at the back, but the printer also offers wireless connection and with WPS setup it’s only a few button presses to connect. It supports gestures, but you have to press quite hard for it to recognise virtual button presses.
While it does have a touchscreen and dedicated touch buttons down either side, it’s functions are limited and its touch action is not very sensitive. In front of the scanner is what looks vaguely like an iPhone, laid on its side.
Pages feed out onto the top of the paper tray cover with an extending paper support and flip-up stop.Īt the top of the machine is a fold-open feed tray for the scanner’s 25-sheet Automatic Document Feeder (ADF) and this is a very low-profile unit, adding only a couple of centimetres to its height. There’s no real reason for the extended surround at the bottom of the machine, though it does hold a memory card reader for SD and MemoryStick cards. In fact, though, it’s a standard A4 printer, with a 125-sheet tray topped off by a 20-sheet photo tray, which powers into the machine when photo print is selected.

You’d be forgiven for thinking this machine could handle A3 paper, as the lower section, which houses the paper tray, runs the full width of the machine. The Photosmart 7510 shows the designers’ latest outing. In its latest round of machines, it has tried hard to break away from the square-box-with-a-scanner-on-top look of many home multifunctions. Nobody can say the industrial design of HP inkjet all-in-ones is mundane.
