In what way is it deficient? ?Nobody has ever commented that my prints are so bad they must have been made on an HP!
No, without context they wouldn't do that; but side by size, the B9180 is more of a glossy color printer, not handling matte media, or black and white, quite as well as the alternatives. For instance, it has only one gray ink, instead of two. And its B&W strategy is to print only black and gray inks, which results in different tonality of different media. And its almost identical in size to a 17 inch wide Epson 3800, while only printing 13 inches wide.

I have difficulty considering the B9180 to be in the same class as the Epson and Canon printers of the same size. HP competes more effectively in the 24 inch and wider sizes.
