Reviewed on 5/10/05    This personal printer costs $299 and prints up to 13-by-19-inch documents. Pay $100 more to get the 9800d unit with built-in double-sided printing skills. The HP Deskjet 9800 ships with one black ink cartridge and a second cartridge with three colors; you'll have to buy a photo cartridge separately. HP estimates that this machine will print 30 pages per minute (ppm) with black ink and 20ppm using color, and it can produce borderless photos.
