Microsoft Windows Millennium Edition Inkjet Printers

The Bottom Line: The Canon Pixma iP90v is the Vista-enabled version of the older Pixma iP90 and offers nearly the same print speeds and quality. It's a very useful printer if you travel a lot and need to print often, but consider the purchase carefully because it's quite expensive.

Specs: Photo printer - Ink-jet - Color, Legal (8.5 in x 14 in), Wired, Wireless, 12 pages/min, 16 pages/min, 1.4 min/page, PC, Mac, USB, Infrared, Direct print USB

The Bottom Line: If you're looking for a good, all-around printer for the home, the HP Photosmart D7160 is a decent choice. But if your focus is on photographs, you can do better for just a little more cash.

Specs: Photo printer - Ink-jet - Color, Legal (8.5 in x 14 in), Wired, 32 pages/min, 7.9 pages/min, 7.8 pages/min, 2.1 pages/min, 31 pages/min, 7.3 pages/min, 5.7 pages/min, 0.2 min/page, 0.3 min/page, 0.4 min/page, 0.8 min/page, PC, Mac, USB

The Bottom Line: The HP Photosmart D7360 offers a varied selection of features, great print quality, and fast text prints, but if you need fast photo prints, look elsewhere. Otherwise, this is a decent option for amateur photo hobbyists.

Specs: Photo printer - Ink-jet - Color, Legal (8.5 in x 14 in), Wired, 32 pages/min, 31 pages/min, 2.9 pages/min, PC, Mac, USB

Editors' Take: Some of the interesting innovations that HP makes in its B9180 tell us we shouldn't count the company out of prosumer photo printing quite yet.

Specs: Photo printer - Ink-jet - Color, Super B (13 in x 19 in), Wired, 0.2 min/page, 0.8 min/page, 1.2 min/page, PC, Mac, USB, Ethernet 10/100Base-TX

The Bottom Line: The HP Photosmart 475 is a portable snapshot printer with sufficient useful features to distract from its ho-hum quality.

Specs: Compact photo printer - Ink-jet - Color, Wired, PC, Mac, USB

The Bottom Line: This portable photo printer is economical and easy to use, but we have a few complaints about its output.

Specs: Compact photo printer - Ink-jet - Color, 4 in x 6 in, Wired, 0.8 min/page, 1 min/page, 1.5 min/page, PC, Mac, USB

The Bottom Line: Canon's i70 provides the best, and most expensive, marriage of speed, design, and print quality that we've seen in a portable printer.

Specs: Photo printer - Ink-jet - Color, A4 (8.25 in x 11.7 in), Legal (8.5 in x 14 in), Wired, Wireless, 0.7 pages/min, 9 pages/min, 13 pages/min, PC, Mac, USB, Infrared

The Bottom Line: The HP 3820's price and stellar photo output make it a good family-photo printer but not a solid all-purpose choice.

Specs: Personal printer - Ink-jet - Color, A4 (8.25 in x 11.7 in), Legal (8.5 in x 14 in), Wired, 12 pages/min, 10 pages/min, 3 pages/min, 0.5 pages/min, 6 pages/min, 4.5 pages/min, 0.8 pages/min, 0.3 pages/min, 2.5 pages/min, 1 pages/min, 0.2 pages/min, PC, Mac, USB, Parallel

The Bottom Line: This Deskjet seems like the ideal SOHO inkjet, but its crummy print quality and high ink costs negate its low price.

Specs: Personal printer - Ink-jet - Color, A4 (8.25 in x 11.7 in), Legal (8.5 in x 14 in), Wired, 20 pages/min, 7 pages/min, 1.4 pages/min, 3.1 pages/min, 0.9 pages/min, 0.3 pages/min, 13 pages/min, 5 pages/min, 1.2 pages/min, 1.7 pages/min, 0.7 pages/min, PC, Mac, USB, Parallel

The Bottom Line: The Stylus C60's low price and excellent photo quality make it a great choice for digital-camera enthusiasts or kids heading to college.
