Strengths: Good print quality along with decent scanning and fax options. Affordable.

Weaknesses: Makes some weird sound when taking in paper and moves a bit while printing

The HP F2280 belongs to the typical budget-category of printers from HP which is very popular with home users and its multifunctional features takes away the need to buy a separate scanner for a few scans every month. The F2280 has the price advantage and also offers users an opportunity to get a fairly good printer from HP which does not have any performance issue.

The colour aspect of the printer along with black and white printing work just fine and though they cannot be compared with the LaserJet quality, they do quite well for presentations and projects. The F2280 might have a big footprint but is quite light as well so moving it around is not a problem at all. You can connect and begin using it quickly as setting up the F2280 is child’s play.

Be prepared to have some noise factor involved with printing as the F2280 emits a suction sound when taking in paper and there is a noticeable movement when the printer is printing. Other than that, the F2280 is fine. So if on a budget and need a multifunctional which works well, then the F2280 should do the job. If you need anything more sophisticated than this, then you would need to opt for the higher range of HP and even Canon has some worthy competition.
