Conclusion: Photosmart 8450 is made for great photo printing and all purpose printing. Fast printing, high quality documents and photos, useful LCD display, all types of card slots.
Pros: Great photo printing in color and black/white
Conclusion: This printer is a very good one for printing photos. It's printing quality is very good at high resolution, however that is at the cost of slow speed.
Pros: Good printing quality, easy installation, easy operation
Cons: Slow speed in high resolution, ink expensive
Summary: We have had this printer for over 20 months now and I figured that it was enough time to test it before writing about it :) When I originally went to buy a photo printer
Summary: I like that the pictures come out really sharp and fast. The only thing that I didn't like about the product is figuring out what tray to use for 4x6 photos.
