Reviews of the HP Deskjet F380

CNET Review
The Good: The HP Deskjet F380 all-in-one combines document printing, photo printing, scanning, and copying for a very low price. It does a decent job with text printing, too.
The Bad: The HP F380's print and scan quality leaves a lot to be desired, and it has none of the features that would make it a convenient photo printer, such as a PictBridge port or a media card reader.
The Bottom Line: The HP F380 is for users who need to print, scan, or copy only occasionally and who still prefer to develop print photos in retail stores. You'll get more features and comparable performance from other budget all-in-ones, such as the Epson Stylus CX4800 or the Lexmark X3350.
