The Bottom Line: The HP Photosmart A626 is supposed to bridge the gap between the A826 and the A526 snapshot printers by providing lots of features, good print quality, and decent print speeds, but it falls short on the last two counts.

Specs: Compact photo printer - Ink-jet - Color, 3.9 in x 11.8 in, 3.95 in x 5.9 in, 5.12 in x 7.1 in, Wired, 0.6 min/page, 0.9 min/page, 1.3 min/page, PC, Mac, USB

The Bottom Line: We can't recommend the HP Photosmart D5360 when the competition's all-in-one offers a lot more for the same price.

Specs: Photo printer - Ink-jet - Color, Legal (8.5 in x 14 in), Wired, 32 pages/min, 24 pages/min, PC, Mac, USB

The Bottom Line: The Epson PictureMate Dash printer is impressive in every way except for print quality.

Specs: Compact photo printer - Ink-jet - Color, 4 in x 6 in, Wired, 1.6 pages/min, PC, Mac, USB, Direct print USB

The Bottom Line: The HP Photosmart A526 snapshot printer is meant to be simple and easy to use, but we found it simplified to a fault. There aren't enough options in standalone mode, and it's not as fast as the competition.

Specs: Compact photo printer - Ink-jet - Color, Wired, 0.6 min/page, 1.3 min/page, PC, Mac, USB

The Bottom Line: The HP Photosmart A826 snapshot printer offers an attractive design, is easy and fun to use, and works better without a PC than any other snapshot printer we've reviewed thanks to its huge touch screen, but we wonder who will spend $250 for a dedicated photo printer.

Specs: Compact photo printer - Ink-jet - Color, 5.12 in x 7.1 in, Wired, 0.6 min/page, 0.9 min/page, 1.3 min/page, PC, Mac

The Bottom Line: The HP Photosmart D7460 offers compelling features--including a touch screen--for home users, but the competition offers better print quality.

Specs: Photo printer - Ink-jet - Color, Legal (8.5 in x 14 in), Wired, Wireless, 34 pages/min, 33 pages/min, PC, Mac, USB, 802.11g, Ethernet

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: Epson's least expensive pro-series printer yet, the Stylus Pro 3800 is sure to dominate among pros, prosumers, and big-spending amateurs alike.

Specs: 17" Large-format printer - Ink-jet - Color, ANSI C (17 in x 22 in), Wired, 4.1 min/page, 6.6 min/page, 11 min/page, PC, Mac, USB, Ethernet 10/100Base-TX

Specs: 17" Large-format printer - Ink-jet - Color, ANSI C (17 in x 22 in), Wired, 2 min/page, 3.3 min/page, 5.5 min/page, 4.1 min/page, 6.6 min/page, 11 min/page, PC, Mac, USB, Ethernet 10/100Base-TX

The Bottom Line: Epson's least expensive pro-series printer yet, the Stylus Pro 3800 is sure to dominate among pros, prosumers, and big-spending amateurs alike.
