HP Photosmart 7660 Ink Cartridges

The HP Photosmart 7660, also referred to as the 7660v, is an inkjet printer that offers some of the most affordable, highest quality printing in its class. This machine is compact and stylish, making it an easy fit in a home office, and comes with a slew of features that set it apart from many other machines in its price range. For instance, this unit goes beyond the standard 4-color system and offers up to 7 colors of HP 7660 ink to print with. This expands the color gamut and creates more detailed imagery.

When it comes to speed, the 7660 is among the fastest photo inkjet printers. Of course, the output rate varies based on the type of Photosmart 7660 ink that is installed and the print mode that the machine is set to. In the fastest mode with the tricolor and black HP 7660 ink cartridges being used, up to 18 pages per minute can be produced. However, with the specialty photo printer ink installed in place of the black, the speed is cut in half but the resolution nearly doubles (4800x1200 dpi). Typically, users will set the print mode to Fast Draft when printing standard documents, and to Best when printing photos.

Windows and Mac operating systems are supported and computers can connect to the 7660 via USB port. In the 7660w version of this machine, wireless connection is available. There are 5 memory card slots included, as well as a front-loading USB port for plugging in a digital camera directly. These two connection options eliminate the need for a computer when printing photos. Photo paper can be loaded onto the photo tray, while the primary input tray holds up to 100 sheets of standard paper.

The two Photosmart 7660 ink cartridges provided upon purchase are the tricolor, which is cyan, magenta, and yellow, and the photo color option, which has light cyan, light magenta, and black printer ink. Black HP 7660 ink is available by itself and HP offers a gray photo supply that is to be used exclusively for black-and-white pictures.

For a family looking to print photos at home inexpensively, or for the up-and-coming photographer trying to launch a career, the HP Photosmart 7660 is an excellent choice. This device offers high-quality document and photo printing, as well as the ability to print directly from a camera or memory card.
