HP Photosmart Plus All-in-One Ink Cartridges

HP Plus All-in-One Printer Review

The HP Photosmart Plus e-All-in-One is an inexpensive multifunction inkjet printer that comes with intuitive management features and is ideal for personal use. The device can print, scan, copy and fax documents at acceptable speeds, printing and copying in as fast as 30 pages per minute for monochrome projects and 28 pages per minute for color. Although it lacks some useful features like an automatic document feeder, buyers looking for a user-friendly personal photo printer will benefit.

Measuring at just 7x17x15 inches, this unit's intelligent and compact design is one of its best features. With a large 3.4-inch touch screen, it provides information on the level of HP Plus e-All-in-One printer ink, quick access to applications from the manufacturer's ePrintCenter, and control buttons for scanning, copying and photo printing. The unit provides flexible connectivity including a PictBridge port to print photos directly from cameras and wireless support for devices like smartphones and tablets.

The printer is suited for low-volume personal use due to a minimal paper capacity of 125 pages and a maximum monthly duty cycle of only 2,500 pages. The device is also best used for photos, with reviews of output quality revealing lackluster graphics and subpar text projects. Images can print with lab-quality precision and a resolution of 4800x1200 dpi using color Photosmart Plus e-All-in-One printer ink.

The device can print and copy monochrome projects with a resolution of 600 dpi using black Photosmart Plus e-All-in-One ink. The machine operates with 4 separate cyan, magenta, yellow and black HP Plus e-All-in-One ink cartridges that can be replaced individually. The manufacturer provides starter HP Plus e-All-in-One ink cartridges with the printer.

With its responsive touch screen and the ability to print professional-quality images, this inkjet unit is a good solution for home photo printing and occasional office functionality. If buyers want a more all-around multifunction printer with better text and graphic output, the e-All-in-One may not be the best option.
