Not bad, but could have been better...
The A1500 was the first multifunctional I've used.I purchase one in 2001 for about $100. Overall, it was a decent machine before it began to die.It takes two ink cartridges, Lexmark black-12A1970 ($25-$32) and Lexmark color-12A1985 ($29-$39).The ink seemed to last for a good while.However, if you don't use the cartridges in a while, the ink will dry up (this is what happened to my color cartridge a few times).When I first purchased it, I thought the design was great, but as I needed copies and scans...

Useless to most ... read all reviews carefully
When I purchased the A1500, no reviews were available. I relied on the salesman who sold me my desktop system with the XP Home Ed installed. He assured me that the Compaq A1500 would be a good choice to buy with the new system. Needless to say, I had problems from day 6 right up until the day I uninstalled it and purchased a Lexmark X5250.If I could rate this 3-in-1 with less than a "1", I would most certainly do it! Buyers beware! The Compaq A1500 is NOT compatible with any system newer than the...

Compaq A1500 All-In-One
The Compaq A1500 software is not compatable with Windows XP.When XP awakes from the standby mode, the printer will not work without rebooting the computer.I have spent 20 hours with Compaq support on this issue without success.One tech went so far as to tell me that the A1500 was not designed for XP and I should have quized the Compaq salesman who sold me the system to somehow figure this fact out.I am within warranty on my A1500 but Compaq refuses to do anything about the problem....

Worst printer I`ve ever owned
I bought the A1500 based on the Compaq name and the excellent results I`ve had with their other products, however I started having problems immediatly, it just would not work. When I called Tech support, I was informed that it was not campatible with my operating system. When I pointed out I was using Win 98se on a Compaq comupter they tried to help. I was able to finally get it installed after being on the phone with Tech Support for almost 2 hours. It worked for one day then quit printing. When...

Windows 98 Incompatable!!!!!!!!!!!
I bought this machine without realizing that it is not compatable with the original Windows 98. It worked fine for a couple weeks, but will no longer print properly. I have tried to correct this problem to no avail, I've even sent it back to Compaq!! On my third call to tech support, I was told that on one of the pages inside the manual it states that this is a "Known issue" and that I must have "Windows 98 Second Edition" for their product to work. This vital information should be prominatly noted...
