You start by choosing one of three payment levels based on how many pages you think you'll print per month: $2.99 per month for a 50 page cap, $4.99 for 100 pages, and $9.99 for 300 pages. Here's how it works: for a monthly fee, HP will keep track of your ink levels and automatically put a replacement in the mail when you're running low. One reason that HP decided to go with a tricolor ink bay is to encourage users to opt into its new Instant Ink Service. Those prices are high compared to those of the Epson XP-420 and the Canon Pixma MG5620, which both work out to 3.5 cents and 5 cents for black and color pages, respectively. Using the cost of these XL cartridges and HP's own page yields, you'll pay just over six cents per page of black ink and 17 cents per color. (You can, of course, download all of this directly from HP's website instead.)Īs usual, HP offsets the price of refill cartridges by selling XL capacity models with larger ink reservoirs for a discounted price.

There's also a few extra software titles on the disc that help you update the firmware on the printer, shop for ink and paper online and start projects using your photos and HP's Photo Creation templates. HP includes a manual for the initial setup and basic troubleshooting, but the driver CD you get in the package is really easy to follow with a clearly labeled guide to connecting the printer to your computer and your home network.

Unfortunately, the printer is missing a media card reader and a USB flash drive port, so there's no ability to conveniently or quickly print snapshot photos without loading them on a computer or phone first. There's also a number pad to the right for adding phone numbers to the built-in address book and a couple more buttons that toggle networking settings, Web services, and assistance. The front panel is kept purposefully simple with a backlit monochrome display and a few buttons around the border that let you navigate through the onscreen menus.
