HP DeskJet 450 review

Thursday 11 May 2006, 3:20 PM

NIGHTMARE. Really it is.


Sanity or the HP 450 -- pick one.

Paper Jams. Remarkably Slow. Paper Jams. Won't Feed. Paper Jams. Worthless. Paper Jams. The irony? Well, it worked for about a year (just like the other owners have described) - then it breaks. Every sheet jams; if you get one to print the next will jam. Failure is the only guarantee

Overview

HP DeskJet 450

Editors rating
Rating: 7.4
Verdict

The DeskJet 450 is compact, and battery power allows you to use it in unlikely places. However, despite its good print quality, it's neither a budget printer, nor the fastest way of printing photos.

Typical price

£ 192
