HP Photosmart A826

$200.00 Released May, 2008

The Pros:Don't even need a PC to print, will read directly from the camera's memory card. Supports a wide range of memory card types. Screen is fairly large and clear for a printer, gives you a good preview of the image.

The Cons:Brightness Enhance makes skin tones too dark, sometimes needs to be turned off. Takes awhile for the ink to dry, need to make sure prints are removed right away and don't stack to make sure they don't get ruined.

The Photosmart A826 is the most advanced home photo printer from HP. Primarily designed for light use due to its rather small ink cartridge, the A826 Printer Dock utilizes a larger 7" touchscreen for editing and printing photos from a camera memory card without the need for a PC.
