HP OfficeJet Pro K550 Color Printer

The HP OfficeJet Pro K550 is a versatile and reliable inkjet printer for home offices and small businesses looking to make a professional impression. The Pro K550 is PC and MAC compatible and has a maximum resolution of up to 4,800 x 1,200 dpi. The printing is of great quality, almost laser printer like in sharpness for text and graphics, photos lose a little in terms of grain and high detail, but are still more than presentation worthy. The printer uses 4 individual ink cartridges (HP 88 Black Ink, HP 88 Cyan Ink, HP 88 Magenta Ink, HP 88 Yellow Ink) a rarity among HP printers that will be more efficient and cost effective ink wise. The speed is great with a max estimated speed of 30 pages per minute for text and graphics. While the printer is solid, it is lacking in any extra features, so while the price may seem reasonable, the extra featured versions will begin to get pricy. Despite the complaint, performance wise this is a solid printer for small to home businesses.
