HP Photosmart C4580


$129.00 Released January, 2009

Product Shot 1 The Pros:Wireless connectivity - can be printed to from any computer on the network without a required PC host to be online, not tied down to a physical location around a router/hub/switch. Multi-function printer, scanner, copier. Affordable price.

The Cons:Software installer hangs. Prints slower than advertised. Printer has a major flaw - can go to sleep and never wake up.

The HP Photosmart C4580 is an all-in-One Printer, Scanner, Copier, but unlike other multi function printers, this one focuses more on photo printing. It doesn't have small office functions such as fax support or an automatic document feeder for scanner/copier tasks, but it does well in meeting the varies use at home and produces beautiful glossy photo prints.
