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.

    PC MAGAZINE.com Editors' review:

    The HP Deskjet 6540 is a budget photo printer aimed at those wanting high-quality text and photo prints for a low price.

    HP claims that the Deskjet 6540 can print at 30 pages-per-minute (ppm), but this is only true in low-quality mode. If you've got important or photo-based documents, you'll probably use the normal or best-quality setting, which can see speeds drop to as low as 2ppm.

    As with most inkjets, the price of replacing cartridges is an issue, but the 6540's running costs aren't prohibitive. HP claims that its high-capacity tri-colour cartridge, which costs £25, will produce 240 10 x 15cm photo prints.

    If you're looking for a low-cost, effective photo printer and don't expect to produce a large volume of work, this is a solid investment.
