For photos that you want to print at home (if you are lazy like me, and don't want to go down town to Boots), then the A516 is a must have if you have a digital camera. You can pick them up for about £40 now in alot of the PC shops.
I was not expecting the best results from this printer, but it can bring out the pictures pretty much as well as the Photo companies.
It accepts Smart Media / XD media / Compact Flash / Memory Stick / and SD memory cards. It also has a USB port for pictbridge. This is where you connect the camera direct to the printer and select what you want to print. Here is a little secret for you... Try putting your bluetooth USB adapter in the socket... does its come up saying bluetooth settings and the light on the adapter flashing... You can now send images from your camera phone direct to the printer. :) For the price you can get this printer now, it is an ideal chance to start to get into printing your own photos.
Get easy, on-the-go printing of wallet-size to 4 x 6-inch photos, including panoramas. This small, portable printer is part of the fun wherever you take it. Print directly from cameras or memory cards - even from select camera phones.

This printer is great if not outstanding value for money. I bought this because of it's 'all in one' features and was very impressed. The instruction manual was easy to follow and set-up was quick. Highly recommended for those who want great quality... more
Well I bought this printer about 12 months ago because I wanted a cheap, good quality HP printer with a card reader that could print good photos and documents, and that's what I got, a good sturdy printer. I'll just go through a few of the points about... more
I chose the HP Photosmart C6180 All-In-One because I had the C5180 before but I wanted one with an Automatic Document Feeder (ADF), which the 5180 lacks, so this is more of an upgrade for me. That aside, I prefer multifunctional printers because I do... more
The PhotoSmart C8180 is the most complete AIO I have had the pleasure to use. The CD/DVD burner is a stroke of genius; it makes an already compelling product groundbreaking. The moment I saw the drive in the printer I hoped it would work the way I... more
