Photo quality was just short of excellent, with a slight tint on our monochrome photo and minor aliasing on the spokes of a bicycle wheel. We rank graphics as very good the 1315 lost points primarily because of mild but visible dithering and banding. Text quality was just short of very good, with more than half the test fonts easily readable at 4 points (though two stylized fonts needed 12 points for easy readability). But the 1315 essentially ties or beats most other AIOs in its price class.Īs already mentioned, output quality is a strong point. That's significantly slower than the 20:24 total for the Brother MFC-3420c, which is the current Editors' Choice in this category. On our business applications suite, the 1315 took a total 35:50. But on our tests (with QualityLogic's hardware and software, using the photo cartridge more than doubled the time for printing photos: from about 2 minutes 40 seconds for each 4-by-6 print to 5:55, and from 6:35 for 8-by-10s to 14:16. As with many ink jets and AIOs, you can also switch between the black cartridge and a photo cartridge. Setup is typical for the breed, with a USB connection and black and tricolor cartridges. Most notably, it combines good-quality print output with good speed, and its default copy settings produce better copies of photos than most AIOs. It doesn't offer a built-in fax modem or an ADF, but it prints, scans, and copies-and does all three well. The HP PSC 1315 All-in-One provides more than you might expect from a $130 AIO. Most notably, it combines good-quality print output with good speed, and its default copy. Review The HP PSC 1315 All-in-One provides more than you might expect from a $130 AIO.
It also handles scanning and copying reasonably well but is limited by the lack of a fax modem and ADF. Bottom Line: The HP PSC 1315 All-in-One is one of the better AIO choices in its price range, with relatively fast print speed (with standard cartridge) and good print quality. Faster than most AIOs in its price class. Pros: Output quality ranges from just short of very good to just short of excellent.
