PC MAGAZINE.com Editors' review:
The HP Photosmart 8750 Professional Photo Printer ($499.99 direct) is
one of the rare ink jet printers designed primarily for photos at sizes
up to 13 by 19 inches. And although you can use it as an all-purpose
printer, it's best as a second printer reserved strictly for photos.
At 10 by 25.3 by 24.1 inches (HWD), the Photosmart 8750 has a large
footprint, but still manages a sleek look, with a gray finish punctuated
by a flip-up LCD panel, memory card slots, and a PictBridge connector
for cameras. Inside, the printer takes three cartridges with six to nine
ink colors, depending on which ones you use. It ships with a tricolor
cartridge with cyan, yellow, and magenta; a photo gray cartridge with
three shades of gray; and what HP calls a blue photo cartridge, with
light cyan, light magenta, and blue, for a total of nine colors and a
wider gamut than most photo printers.
You can swap the blue photo cartridge for one with light cyan, light
magenta, and black, and swap the photo gray for a black cartridge. We
ran our text and graphics tests with a blue photo, a tricolor, and a
black cartridge (7 colors) for fastest times. For photos, we used the
nine-ink configuration for best quality.
Photos were at the high end of very good, just missing out on excellent.
Most images qualified as true photo quality, but we saw a sprinkling of
minor issues, including a slight tint in one photo that gave clouds a
pink tinge. Graphics were also at the high end of very good, and text
was at the high end of good.
More relevant is that HP claims a 100-year lifetime for 8750 output
displayed under glass, or 200 years in a photo album, a claim that Canon
doesn't make. If you care about long-lasting prints, you may decide it's
worth waiting a little extra time for the output.
