Important Printer Buying Tip: ALWAYS check for the ink cartridge prices before you purchase a printer. Why? Sometimes cheaper printers end up costing more because its ink cartridges may be way expensive. You should calculate the "cost of ownership" per month. The math is simple: (number of prints per month) times (cost of the cartridge) divided by (the yield of the cartridge). Yield is the number of pages that can be printed with one particular cartridge. For example, assume that average home user prints 150 black pages per month using a black cartridge that yields 200 pages and costs $28. The monthly "cost of ownership" is (150 pages) x ($28) = $21 200 pages Also look at the printer ink alternatives; besides the original manufacturer's cartridges (OEMs), you may have the selection of remanufactured cartridges, compatible ink cartridges, and ink refill kits. |

Detailed Specs (HP CP1700 Color Inkjet Printer, C8108A):
Product Description for HP CP1700 (From the Manufacturer, Hewlett Packard)
Hewlett-Packard's CP1700 printer combines wide-format print capabilities with a space-saving design ideally suited for small work areas. Providing both outstanding detail and extremely flexible options, this inkjet easily earns its keep in the home office.
Print speeds exceed those of a typical home printer, with the CP1700 churning out monochrome documents at 16 pages per minute and 14 pages per minute in color. The printer supports single-sheet sizes up to 13 by 19 inches, as well as 13-by-50-inch banners. It can handle transparencies, card stock, and photo papers; the paper tray can hold up to 250 sheets of letter or legal-sized bond paper.
The print quality is stunning, producing impeccably crisp text and color-saturated photos at a maximum 2,400 by 1,200 dpi resolution. Each of the four rich colors resides in a separate ink tank, meaning you only have to replace the specific colors as you use them.
With a built-in USB port for plug-and-play operation with your PC, the printer also boasts infrared connectivity, support for both Windows and Macintosh operating systems, and optional networking and duplex printing capabilities. Hewlett Packard provides a limited warranty, covering parts and service for one year.

PCWORLD.com Editors' review:
WHAT'S HOT: Its support for 13-by-19-inch sheets of paper makes the CP 1700 good for heavy graphics use, and an optional duplexer ($130) permits you to generate comps of a whole form without taping pieces together. We liked the unit's clean black text; its ability to print narrow parallel lines cleanly; and the subtle, very detailed gray-scale and color photos it produced. It prints text over a USB 1.1 connection at a reasonable 5.4 pages per minute, though its 1 -ppm graphics speed might try your patience, especially if you use HP's $200 adapter to put the CP 1700 on an ethernet network. (PC World did not test the CP 1700's ethernet performance, but in most cases an ethernet connection runs somewhat slower than a direct USB 1.1 connection.) More paper-handling pluses include a hand-feed slot in the rear to handle media that shouldn't bend as it passes through, and a 10-sheet bypass feeder that lets you print on letterhead without emptying the main tray. More than one user can connect using USB, parallel, and ethernet at the same time--the CP 1700 manages the print queue, aided by 16MB of memory. For heavy use, you can add an optional 250-sheet paper tray ($130). HP's ink costs, specified at 2.1 cents for black and 8.4 for light-duty color, are among the lowest we've seen for an ink jet printer.
WHAT'S NOT: The CD 1700 comes at a stiff price ($499), so make sure you need its specialized talents before pulling out your checkbook. The tabloid-size paper tray is immense, and we found adjusting it for various sizes of paper somewhat clumsy--the sliders move reluctantly and the stops are poorly labeled. The accompanying printed documentation is brief and uninformative; the on-screen help files are better, though not superdetailed. For some odd reason, the driver's watermark feature can print in only a few basic colors.
WHAT ELSE: The CP 1700 has a built-in infrared port, so notebook wielders can zap files to it without hooking up cables. An LCD on the control panel informs you about error conditions and ink status.
UPSHOT: The costly 1700 offers a lot of capability, but you should consider it only if you need a printer that can handle outsize paper.
