Review of HP PhotoSmart 7350 by
Nann
Advantages: brilliant color photos, easily used with computer, nice looking machine, not noisy!
Disadvantages: quite slow to print, but worth the wait, double sided printing requires accessory, more cost
...photos, thank heavens I found HP Photosmart, it is quieter than the other two, easy to connect to computer, has four slots for different media cards thank heavens, (I have just changed digital camera, new one has stick and not card as previous camera) I am also able to download photos for friends and family with different type of media.
I wish it would print both sides, but unfortunately you have to buy a special cartridge, I think it should be ... ...very surprised at the amount of photos plus printing that I obtained from the cartridge, so not as expensive as first thought.
Most of the time I find I can use 'normal mode' for printing photos, sometime 'Best mode' has too much ink, unlike my previous printer which always had to be in best mode. obviously this saves on ink, trial and error will soon make sure you use the correct mode.
I am very pleased with this printer and would certainly recommend ...

HP Photosmart 7550
Review of HP PhotoSmart 7550 by
cbzcbz
Advantages: print quality, ease of use, speed
Disadvantages: appearance
I bought this printer from Staples for £90 (ex-display Sale bargain!!) and am very happy with the quality of this unit.
It offers 4800x1200 dpi(dots per inch) and up to 17ppm(pages per minute) in black, and up to 13ppm in colour.
It connects through USB only.
It features card readers for Smartmedia, Compactflash, SD, and memory stick, and with the colour screen, you can easily print direct from card onto photo paper. Using this screen you can ... ...you print them out.
Printing a typical 6x4 photo only takes 2 minutes approx and the photo quality is superb and dries quickly.
It can be used to print documents and text also with good print speeds and quality.
This printer uses a 7-colour ink system to get good quality photos. It uses 56,57 (blk and clr) and 58(photo cart). These carts are relatively cheap to buy at £15-20 for black, and £25-30 for colour. With photo paper being cheap now from ...

Very Average
Review of HP PhotoSmart 7150 by
querth
Advantages: HP paper tray arrangement
Disadvantages: Tri colour cartridges, no borderless printing
Overview
The HP PhotoSmart 7150 is, as the name suggests, a printer designed for printing photos. This basically means you get a few extra features over an ‘ordinary’ HP DeskJet printer:
Firstly the black cartridge can be removed and replaced with a photo cartridge containing 2 extra colours – light cyan and light magenta, plus black. These improve the range of colours the printer can reproduce for better quality photo output. Secondly the printer ... ...are limited to a few HP models.
Form and Styling
The printer follows the classic HP inkjet design – paper goes in at the front from a paper tray and follows a U shaped path, emerging again from the front of the printer into an output tray on top of the input tray. This quite a convenient design as it means you don’t need much access to the top or back of the printer so it can tucked away in a small space. A lid on the top of the printer allows ...

HP PhotoSmart Pro B9180
Review of HP PhotoSmart Pro B9180 by
my_user
Advantages: Printer quality will lost for many many years
Disadvantages: please check my Drawbacks list with this printer:
I had brought this printer particularly to print my beautiful photos. Based on my experience the photos quality is simply superb. I have stuck few A3 size (bigger scenery photos) photos on my room walls without any laminations, already few months ago and I'm cleaning dust with cloth once in a while but still the photo print quality is very good, not seen even small shading on the print. I never had seen this kind of print quality in my life time. ... ...Drawbacks with this printer: It takes hell a lot of time to initialize the printer (minimum 15 to 20 minutes) by this time your 5 to 10% of ink cartridge will become empty.
It consumes too much of ink and ink bags are sky high price.
After a few months the whole printer with full of aerosol ( full of ink) Printing time is very very….slow
Very bad paper skew happens once in a while (particularly when you print ...

A good photo printer
Review of HP PhotoSmart 7260 by
hnilesp
Advantages: Good quality, elegant, fast
Disadvantages: expesive maintenance
This is a very good products with both pros and cons. The design structure of the printer is very aesthetic and eyecatching. The presence of a five in one card reader is of great assistance. Not only in the process of printing straight out of the memory chip but also in connecting such memory chips to the computer. As the name suggests this printer is primarily designed for the use as a photo printer and it does its job absolutely well. The print ... ...as well. A lot of ink is wasted during the printing process and the cost of the cartridges are very and refilling is equally expensive. The capacity of the basic cartridges that come with the printer is very limited. Another issue common to most inkjet printers is that the ink solidifies when the printer is not used commonly. But I'd clearly recommend this product to anyone who wishes for a worthy colour printer. ...
