As A small business owner, I was in need of a FAST, durable, and high quality printer. I bought the 1220c after purchasing the 932c. both are fantastic printers, however, the 1220c is much faster, with twice the ram than the 932c. Both use photo 3...

Pros: Can print Large paper, Excellent quality, Great Software, Also has a straight paper path option
Cons: Expensive compared to other printers

First of all, I must say this is a professional printer. If you are a regular home user, don't consider this printer. If you want a smaller version of this same printer, check out the 950c. Read my review of that printer here:

Pros: speed, photorealistic quality, price, low running cost, fabulous looks
Cons: fast mode is marginally noisy.

Pros: aesthetics, document size, speed, quality
Cons: annoying blank feeds, jams on cheap paper

I'll start off by saying that the 1220C is not for everyone. Having purchased mine in early May of 2000, it cost nearly $450. While I'm sure the price has dropped significantly, it still is too high for most home users. However, this printer is a must...

Pros: Prints PostScript, Large Format Capacity
Cons: Quick, but not FAST.

Hewlett-Packard printers, specifically their color inkjets, have always been great. I've owned six since my first 597C. And when I was in the market for a professional-grade color printer, I knew I wanted to choose from HP's offerings, but their range...

I upgraded from the 870cse to the 1220 and I couldn't be happier. I've started doing photo restorations on my computer and the 1220 delivers near-photo quality prints. The picture color from screen to paper is very close also.

I bought the...

Pros: Great Print Quality, Fantastic speed, Makes Photos that are better the 35mm Prints !

I bought an HP 1220C to replace my absolutely worn out 1120C. With a newer laptop for my digital world, I decided to go with the USB connection. Over the four days since pulling the 1220 out of the box and beginning the first install, I have had to:
...

Pros: Wide format, Easy to use, Professional image quality, Excellent price to performance ratio, Stylish
Cons: Short power cord, takes up lots of desk space

This is the absolute best printer that I have seen in my life. Not only does it have the best image quality I have seen, but it also accepts an enormous array of paper, including 13" by 40" poster paper. I use it to print pictures from my Kodak DC290...

Pros: Quiet, great photos, fast, good software driver, excellent HP support
Cons: None if you have space for one!

I didn't plan to buy this when I went printer shopping. I was waiting for the much-touted DJ 990cse/cxi to hit the streets. When it finally did, I found the 1220C while scouring the web for vendors who actually had a 990 in stock. I compared the spec...

Pros: Very Quiet, basic paper feed OK, cheap unit for the paper sizes it can handle
Cons: Extremely poor software, difficult to abort print jobs.

Pros: Good quality, nice picture, jam free, fair price.
Cons: May be a little expensive for some.

The HP DeskJet 1220 Cxi is a great printer. The color and picture is great! This printer does not easily jam. The design allows this printer to fit just about anywhere. This printer was built to last! This printer has speed! It prints great pages in...

Pros: largest sheet size, common print cartridges
Cons: slow first page, jams, frequent paper feed problems

This printer is not "Professional", despite its name. It is based upon the HP 45 and 78 main-line consumer cartriges, but does not perform quite as well as the smaller printers that use those cartridges. In trying to be "Professional", this printer does a lot more annoying printhead cleaning, so short print jobs take much longer. Mine also frequently jams paper, and frequently requires me to manually press the paper feed button just to print pages of a letter-sized document.
