Reviews of the HP Photosmart C4280

CNET Review
The Good: The HP Photosmart C4280 multifunction printer is inexpensive; it has fast text-print speeds, inexpensive ink cartridges for users who rarely print, and built-in memory card slots.
The Bad: Print quality needs improvement; slow photo prints; no PictBridge port; can't initiate a print-all-photos task in standalone mode; can't edit photos on all-in-one; LCD makes it hard to judge photos.
The Bottom Line: HP tries to offer the most basic users an inexpensive all-in-one with the Photosmart C4280 multifunction printer, but we find that for roughly the same price, you can get an all-in-one with more compelling features and better print quality.

Review Summary: At this price, the C4280 is certainly something of a bargain. However, it's probably best suited for use as a general-purpose office printer rather than specifically as a photo-printer.
