Score 8.0/10+ Very smart looking (sad, I know). Extremely easy to set up and use. Only ever used as a free standing printer, not yet connected via pict bridge or direct from pc. Initially colours appeared fake in some pics but managed to fiddle with settings and this improved.
- Uses ink cartridges at a frightning rate, 40 pics! (this could be down to my mainly floral subjects which have vivid bright and dark colours throughout the frame) and quite slow to print (2-3 minutes per print).

Score 8.0/10+ Bluetooth. Option to print on 7x5in paper in addition to standard 6x4in paper. Really nice quality prints.
- Slow to print. No wi-fi.

Score 10.0/10+ It's a fantastic product but it's all about the paper. We bought some cheap kodak paper and some 4/5 star hp paper and printed the same photo. On the HP Paper the colours were rich and you could see the background. On the kodak picture paper the colours were very dark and you coudn't see the background.
- Would have bee nice to have the bluetooth feature build in and not have to buy it.

It got the formula right some time ago and has been tweaking it since. This new printer is HP's latest compact, and continues with the same familiar shape and ability as its predecessors. It uses HP's Vivera inks, supplied from a single HP 110 Tri-colour cartridge, which costs ¬£15 to replace and has an average yield of 55 prints. The best prints result from using HP's…
