4.0 out of 5 stars The K550dtn is big, black, versatile & very fast inkjet printer. It has good print quality & is fine for the odd photo, 1 Dec 2006
By Keith Joseph (West Berkshire, England) - See all my reviews
(TOP 100 REVIEWER)      
This is a very large home/office inkjet printer that prints at 600 x 600 dpi with normal text and images on plain paper [with optional PhotoREc enhancement for inkjet quality paper]. Resolution jumps up to 1200 x 1200 [4800x1200 optimised] when using photo paper. It's footprint is a reasonable 27 (width) x 47 cm (depth). However the [supplied] auto duplex unit must be fitted, and adds another 9cm to the rear. Plus the A4 paper output capture bar adds another 23 to 27cm to the front. The K550 takes three [Cyan, Magenta, Yellow] colour cartridges and one black - the supplied ones are the standard 10ml colour, 17ml black not the large 17ml and 48ml ones, but at least they aren't small `starter volumes'. The two print heads are separate and they fit into the internal printer moving head block - they can also be replaced if they get fail. The inks are fed from the cartridges via tubes, so the ink cartridges are very easy to fit via lift up flap in the front of the unit (and you don't press down on the delicate moving printer parts to fit them).

The printer is easy to set up, and has software options to reduce print ink (light), use the auto duplex, select default paper tray, to select inkjet or photopaper, and manual duplex. The top [250 sheet] tray 1, integrated into the printer, also has a lift up top to slide in paper for manual duplex or single paper feed (rather difficult to use). The larger capacity [350 sheet] under tray 2 is ideal for A4 plain paper. The paper trays clip in and out but they are rather fiddly to refit. The build quality is pretty good - it is all a bit plastic and looks better in the photos than in real life. It's not butt ugly though, but it is big and very black. It also bounces around a lot as it prints - as it prints very very fast when it gets going. It's very heavy weight keeps it fixed to the spot quite well. The K550dtn's print quality is also very good for text and graphics, and more than adequate for occasional photo-printing, and noticeably better than my old HP 950C it replaced. However if you mainly want to print photos you should also consider the dedicated 6-cartridge HP PhotoSmart D7360 photograph printer, also available from Amazon. This K550 printer, being a simple 3-cartridge colour system, should be a bit cheaper to run than a dedicated photo-printer.

The printer is fairly quiet when it prints, as it's all over very quickly, but when waking from sleep it does make more noise (it's still a lot quieter than a laser). So far the printer has worked very well, and can handle paper card up to 200 gsm - it does make a terrible grinding noise when it runs out of paper though. Plus it has jammed very occasionally when auto duplex [double sided] printing, and the error LEDs aren't always easy to understand. It jams far less than my HP 950C it replaced though, and pretty much never on one sided printing.

This printer is also available from Amazon as a cheaper basic K550, but the dtn suffix adds in the large 350 sheet paper tray 2, the auto-duplex unit and a wired network connection. The latter was the deciding factor for us as it meant we could plug the printer in via a network cable (not supplied) direct into our wireless router, so that we can print from any PC on the network without having to have any host PC switched on. Setting up via our network was very simple on all PCs using the supplied CD, the PC automatically found the printer on the network every time. You can still attach the printer directly to a PC via USB2 if you want (but then that PC has to be on to use the printer). So overall an excellent, versatile and rather obtrusive printer, that is easy to set up, isn't too expensive to run, and can produce better photos than a colour laser when needed to. We are quite happy with it. Checkout the K550dtn printer at www.hp.co.uk as the photos on the Amazon listing may show the smaller K550 sibling not the K550dtn.

Update: Two years on and the printer is actually working more reliably than ever (like it's worn in). Can't remember the last time a sheet got stuck. The ink lasts pretty well using the 'large volume' versions of the cartridges. When an ink cartridge replace light starts flashing empty and printing stops, just open the cartridge flap and close it again - there's still ink left and this gets you a few extra pages.
