I wish that we could have found a suitable workaround for the borderless issue. Basically when making borderless prints in every program the image was stretched and zoomed in cropping 1/4-1/2 an inch. from Amazon.com I am BLOWN AWAY by the print quality in a 13 x 19 photo printer that costs about $200. Big prints are GORGEOUS. from Amazon.com This HP printer was a replacement for a lower cost model that also scanned and copied. I decided to purchase a printer for photos because my family had a greater need and this fit all the parameters that I had set. It is a bit noisy, but no more so than other inkjet printers, and it's speed is not that much greater than the old, cheaper HP that we now use for black and white copies. from Amazon.com My old HP printer (don't remember the model) died but print quality was excellent. It used two cartridges (totaling 5 color + black) and it produced very high quality photo prints. from Amazon.com I've never submitted a bad review before, but the printer I received is already junk. I've purchased nothing but HP printers with great results. from Amazon.com * Print quality. I was completely amazed by the print quality of this printer, as everyone else has said. Once I'd printed out my first 4x6, I paraded it around the house, showing people and making sure I wasn't imagining how clear and sharp it was. from Amazon.com Just received this photo printer on Friday and so far I love it! I'd been looking for a good quality photo printer but couldn't afford the $700+ it seems one needs to spend for professional quality. from Amazon.com The HP Photosmart B8550 is compact and very nice looking. The printer works very well except the ink doesn't last very long. from Amazon.com Separate ink cartridges, including lg capacity ones for economyVery quiet in operation. Dye inks for excellent glossy. Makes lg borderless prints, which is always nice. Cons: Resolution of 1200x1200 is good for text (higher than others) but lower than competing printers for photos. from Newegg.com Just Buy It !! Date: August 11, 2009 from Amazon.com
