The HP PhotoSmart 7150 color inkjet printer offers true-to-life photo-quality results with up to 4,800 x 1,200 optimized color dpi (using premium photo paper, and with 1,200 x 1,200 input dpi when printing from your computer).

The 7150 easily connects to your digital camera via the front USB port for direct printing, and to your PC or Mac via the rear USB port. The HP PhotoSmart 7150 printer capitalize on PhotoREt IV technology to combine excellent print quality and speed with strong, vibrant colors and natural skin tones. Using HP's No. 57 and No. 58 inkjet print cartridges for six-ink printing, this new printer is capable of producing a range of 1.2 million colors. If used with HP's No.56 inkjet cartridge, this great all-rounder can produce deep black, laser-quality text and graphics for professional-looking presentation documents. With PhotoREt IV technology, printing photos is faster and easier than traditional high dpi printing, and because it uses less ink, it saves money in the long run. However, the printer has an optional optimized 4,800 dpi mode. This versatile printer includes a range of smart and helpful features, including HP's award-winning optical paper sensor and optional automatic two-sided printing accessory. A low ink indicator and job cancel button mean ink consumption can be monitored and unwanted jobs stopped to save paper and ink.

I had extra ink cartridges on hand, and they're expensive, so I continued to use it, even though I was hand-feeding just about everything. It was a rare occasion when it fed two sheets of ordinary copy paper consecutively. So, finally I gave up in disgust and bought the Photosmart 7150 Inkjet a few days ago.It feeds well, and tonight I just finished printing 32 old family black and white photos, four copies of each,4 up on each 8.5" X 11" sheet of Kodak glossy photopaper.The quality is superb! At least as good as the prints you would expect from a quality photo shop. I should say that, on the best quality setting, the printer is extremely slow. But the quality makes the wait worthwhile. Also, it assists in the drying for the picture to come through slowly.I had a heck of a time getting 4 up of the same picture on a single sheet. Finally, I went to Corel Draw 8 (Corel Photo Paintdidn't help) and imported 4 copies of the same picture and enlarged them to fill the sheet. It worked fine, and now I know how to do it in the future.The printer is inexpensive, and I hope it continues to feed properly. The best printer I ever had was an HP Laserjet, which I bought in 1989. My experience with that one keeps me coming back to Hewlett Packard. I've had three or four printers since then, and except for the 890C they've all met my expectations.Now, if only they would come up with a printer that was fast, as well as capable of good quality...Joseph Pierre 31 of 34 people found the following review helpful. Beyond All Expectations! By D. Scheeler Put the old camera & film in the attic for nostalgia sake! Get a 2 MP digital or higher and print your photos with this printer! The 4"x6" tray is a plus for album & framed prints and the 8x10 tray is fine for multiple prints on one page (called albums). I use desktop publishing programs to create collages of pictures as well. The photo print quality of the HP is magnificent! People who see my photos cannot believe a printer produced them with such vivid color and clarity. I have made "memories" CD's using my cdwriter and imported background music for the "slide shows". The HP software does it all - follow the directions. User friendly and the ink goes a long way! Don't pass on this one - I paid ... only 3 months ago and it's worth much more -it's on sale so run for it! Print only what you like and you will LOVE what you print! 17 of 18 people found the following review helpful. Excellant Printer By A Customer This is my third HP and the results just keep getting better. The 7150 is stylish and well designed. The printer has a 4 x 6 photo tray that allows 20 sheets of photo paper to be loaded and printed in a batch mode directly from HP's excellant photo printing / album layout software. Even with the 20 sheets of 4 x 6 paper loaded you can still print on regular paper via a lower paper tray. Prints using the photo color cartridge are stunning. I have to say I sold my Epson 820 in no time flat and even made my Canon friend blush when he saw how incredible the prints are. As always the big advantage to HP is the quality. These printers don't jam, don't need head cleaning and don't require tweaking to get the results you see on screen. See all 10 customer reviews...
