Hewlett Packard Photosmart 8150 inkjet printer

I stumbled upon the HP Photosmart 8150 printer while browsing at office max, $169. It’s a large, space-like looking affair with slots of various sizes for paper from 8x10 down to the small 4x6 photo. It’s an inexpensive, easy to use, and ...

Easy hook-up, accepts multiple memory cards, built in screen
