Pros: Looks cool, great price, print photos!
Cons: Ink cartridges are rather small, advertised PPM is slower that actual.
The Bottom Line: Great printer for resumes, photos, and general printing with color- all at a low price.

| kaos2lfe's Full Review: Hewlett Packard DeskJet 5550 Inkjet Printer |
Hp has done it again.
For easily under $150, you get a printer for text, resumes, and photos (addition photo cartridge needed) while looking great too. The text quality is near perfect and the photo quality is really good for an ink jet. It's advertised to print at 17 PPM but i only seem to get 5-7 pages per minute, which disappointed me. Otherwise i'm very happy with this printer due to it's aesthetics and price. If you are new to digital photography and are looking for an inexpensive photo printer to start with, then here it is. There are better HP photo printers of course, but not one that can print photos AND regular text at this high of a quality.
