Digital camera reviews of HP DeskJet 5650 Color Inkjet Printer

Digital camera Review: This printer is a work horse! A+
Summary: 4 Stars

I found this printer in "storage" at my work, and decided to hook it up to my PC. I couldn't tell you how old it was when I started using it, and it didn't even have a CD to install when I found it, but I just went online and downloaded an install driver package called "HP Deskjet 5600 Series" and it works perfectly.

This printer is FAST, on "FastDraft" it prints very quickly (for example, 60 page PDF documents in just a couple of minutes), and has very user-friendly settings to adjust print quality (from "FastDraft" to "Maximum DPI"), though I would never use the Maximum DPI setting because it's a waste of ink and is pretty slow (use the next best setting, called "Best," instead, if printing high quality photos or color documents).

I've never had problems running it with WinXP, unlike some other reviewers, but again, I used the software downloaded from HP's website rather than an install CD. I've used this printer to make labels of all sorts, print onto envelopes, make two sided print outs of large PDFs to save on paper, and even make a book layout using the accompanying print wizard. All have worked pretty well.

The only weird things about this printer? For one, while printing larger documents, it will occasionally spit out blank sheets of paper...I haven't a clue why. Second, the top printer cover won't close properly all the time. Since it won't print if the cover isn't fully closed, I find it annoying to have to open and close it repeatedly until it's finally shut correctly.

Besides those two mysterious issues, this printer is a work horse! It's been going strong for some time now and I don't foresee any problems with it in the future...hopefully :)
