Advantages: Reasonable printing costs, quick print speed, very good quality in both colour and B/W Disadvantages: It could be smaller
The HP Officejet Pro K5400 costs about £80 (it depends where you get it from) and its marketing point is that it is supposed to be the world's fastest desktop printer for business color. I'n not quite sure what the differnce between business colour and other sorts of colour are, but hey, who's worrying!
It's a good machine to have if you want a reasonable nod towards a colour laser printer, but don't actually want the expense and desk space of owning ... ...It works really well with HP photo paper (I've done a separate review of that if anyone is interested). It prints in 1200 x 1200 dpi resolution in black and white and 4800 x 1200 dpi resolution in colour. In terms of desk space, it's about average - I find all HP printers quite bulky, but it sits nicely on top of a filing cabinet.
Printing costs are not bad. You have black and colour cartridges and standard refills cost about £17 each. That's quite ...

Advantages: Provides fast and economical prints Disadvantages: photo printings not the best i have seen
At first I had a few problems loading the cd,it kept saying the disc couldnt be read,found out it was just a faulty disc which was promptly replaced (from the shop I brought it from)
As for the printer it does everything and more. You can get too types of cartridges for this printer,the standard ones which print about 500 pages and the XL cartridges that print about 2400 (thats a lot of printing)
My printer came complete wth 4 inks,and 2 printerheads ... ...So far I have printed off holiday photos,leaflets and flyers and I can say the printer is fast and economical,it prints top quality prints in next to no time.
In addition to the cartridges and printerheads this printer also came with an add on bit at the back which can be used for double sided printing (will come in useful I think!) ...

...problem. 30 minutes with this HP pile of poo and I was on the helpline already. Just refuses to load paper - any paper, any way up down or sideways. Total utter rubbish - like HP customer services and Misco, where I bought it. I've had plenty of experience with printers, and never seen one so badly designed, poorly made, or that would not work at all straight out of the box, brand new. It's a disgrace.
My advice: do NOT buy this printer. In fact ...

Advantages: none Disadvantages: wont print more that 100 sheets per print head
...2 days this also malfunctioned. HP echanged the machine within 10 more days with a reconditioned unit. I complained I didnt buy a recon unit I wanted a new one because the recon unit didnt work from the get go. I wouldnt buy a new car with 20,000 miles on the clock would you. Also it will only print labels in best quality mode as it skids them through and miss aligns them in normal mode. It also will not print edge to edge envelopes. The closest ... ...during the day while it cleans and aligns heads or whatever. If you have money to burn or you need a flat ledge to store paper on top of then buy this. If you need a printer buy a different brand completely as HP UK really dont give a .. ...
