The basic description
The HPphotosmart A526 is a photograph printer that doesn't need a computer to use. It has a 2.4" LCD colour screen for previewing photos before you print. You scroll through the contents of your memory card and selct and print the photo you want. If you wish to edit any photos, you can plug it into a computer beforehand. The idea seems based around convenience and portablity.

It boasts printing speeds of up to 39 seconds per 10x15cm colour print, although in my experience it usually takes more like 60 seconds per colour print (still not bad for good quality prints).
As I mentioned the A626 is a compact photo ...
Advantages: Wireless printing and scanning saves time and money for business Disadvantages: Sometimes needs turned on/off when scanning lots of documents
I received the HPPhotosmart C4585 as a Christmas 2008 present and so am not sure how much was paid for it- though I know it was bought from Curry's. To sum up in the first paragraph all I can say is that this in an incredible piece of technology- the freedom of not having to plug in printers and scanners into my laptop is a great asset that I did not think I could appreciate to such an extent.
The product was found in excellent condition upon opening the packaging due to the strong polystyrene inserts that fitted the box like a glove. Inside all the relevent user manuals, quick start guide (for both windows and apple), warranty cards and sample ink cartridges were included.
