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.

CNET.com Editors' review:
The newest addition at the top of HP's photo printer lineup, the
Photosmart 8450, replaces last year's high-end offering, the HP
Photosmart 7960, which earned solid marks for its photo-print quality
and plethora of direct-printing options. We expect good things out of
the 8450, which introduces photo enthusiasts to HP's new Vivera ink set
and accompanying printhead technology. The overall result, HP claims, is
more-vibrant, longer-lasting output as well as increased speed.
Upside: In addition to the new inks, HP has improved control
over drop-size variation and the printer's color look-up tables. The
combined effect, the company hopes, is improved color accuracy and
better-looking output. Like its big brother, the HP Photosmart 8450
comes loaded with direct-printing options: you can print directly from
any PictBridge-compatible digital camera via the USB port and from an
array of digital media slots on the printer's front panel (CompactFlash
I and II, MMC, SD, SmartMedia, Memory Stick, and xD cards). And now you
can also print photos from any Bluetooth-enabled camera phone or PDA.
Downside: HP still clings to the combo ink cartridges with
built-in printheads, which tends to keep consumables costs up. That's a
major drawback for photo enthusiasts.
Outlook: At $300 (list price), the 8450 costs slightly more
than competing models. Based on specs alone, the HP Photosmart 8450
looks like it might turn out to be a good choice for nascent photo
enthusiasts, but as always, we'll withhold judgment until we get it to
CNET Labs for testing.
