Some intriguing new features, but not everything you'd want; quality is fine for ordinary use but not professional,
June 30, 2010 This review is from: HP Photosmart D110A Wireless Printer (CN731A#B1H) (Office Product)
Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?)
This is a decent low-end printer with a few very cool features, and satisfactory but not stellar performance. It would be the ideal printer for a small family, especially with children who like to print things (and what kids don't like to print things). I'm going to quickly go through the features and mention what I've experienced after playing with it for a few days; where relevant, I'll compare its features to my slightly more expensive Canon printer.
SETUP:
The printer's nicely packed, and easy to put together. The only trick I had was installing the printer cartridges. Like another reviewer said, the printer cartridges don't go in exactly the way the diagram or the illustrated video on the printer's screen suggests. If you make a mistake, it will say that they're not installed, and then you can't just go fix the mistake because it doesn't recognize you've fixed it unless you power off and power on again. One other thing I like is that the whole thing comes...Read more

UPDATE Oct 2010: I printed probably about 4 or 5 4x6 prints, and maybe 6 or 7 8x10 prints and now it's out of ink. While I'm fine with using this printer for printing snapshots for photo albums in the 4x6 size(or black and white normal documents), when you get to 8x10 size photos, I wasn't happy with the sharpness, color or detail. My camera is an SLR, so they can be blown up quite big. As I pointed out in the video review, the colors will vary widely from what you see on your monitor before printing. And this is a whole 'nother bag of worms based on your monitor being in RGB and printers being in CMYK color calibration. But it seemed like a bigger difference then I'm used to.
UPDATE June 2010: An Amazon staffer has informed me "I work with Amazon and wanted to confirm that the paper included with the product does not come with every printer. This was only for the trial versions." That was something I thought was so great about this particular...Read more

A respectable choice for a "slightly above entry level" option.,

Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?)
I've owned tons of HP Deskjets/Inkjets over the years as well as a Photosmart, so I feel right at home with this printer. Printers are difficult to review because opinions of them vary so greatly from person to person with regards to print quality and desirable features/functions. I will try to keep my impressions short and only comment on the ones that need more explanation.
The good:
-The printer is small and the design is very stylish
-Photo print quality on photo paper is excellent/exceptional on 4x6 HP Advanced Photo paper.
-Printing on regular paper, text, is fine/ok/typical
-The software install on PC was simple/straightforward/easy
-The printer works reliably on wireless and is pretty seamless doing so
-ePrint will be available soon, which opens a whole world of printing possibilities
-Scanning/printing/menu use on the printer is simple after initial setup
-It shipped with a big box of photo paper and nice carrying...Read more
