Looking for a convenient way to bring those digital photos to life on paper? The HP PhotoSmart 130 color inkjet printer offers impressive borderless 4-by-6-inch photos with up to 4,800 x 1,200 optimized color dpi. Using the printer's available card slots, you can print directly from your digital camera's CompactFlash, SmartMedia, Sony Memory Stick, Secure Digital, or MultiMediaCard memory media without having to first load images onto your system.

HP's specially developed inks and photo papers create intense colors that are nearly fade-proof, and they supply a range of finishes and sizes. The built-in paper feeder can process sheets up to 4 by 6 inches, the total number of sheets depending on their thickness.

The included software bundle allows you to organize and file images in a variety of ways--you can even create custom slide shows. The USB-equipped PhotoSmart 130 is easily transportable, measuring only 8.8 by 7.9 by 4.9 inches and weighing less than three pounds. Compatible with either PC or Macintosh, all drivers, power cords, and ink cartridges are included right in the box. Hewlett-Packard provides a one-year warranty that covers parts and service.

The printer is highly suitable for non-PC environments and for those on the go. The HP Photosmart 130's affordable price, support for the main digicam storage media, "no-brainer" operation and quality output also make it a good buy for novice and intermediate digital camera users who are looking for a photo printer.

Pros: Portable, no PC required, quality output.
Cons: Printing costs can get expensive, takes 2.5 minutes to produce a 4R print.

Good Printer for the Price.......2003-12-31

Considering that this is an older model from HP (HP discontinued this model and suggest to buy Photosmart 145 as an alternative), this is a good printer. It does pretty well what it promises to do - print quality 4x6 photos. The printer is easy to set up and easy to use. It accepts different types of digital memory cards and is pretty fast in printing - less than 30 seconds to print one photo. The quality of the prints is as good as regular camera prints - your friends wouldn't tell the difference unless you tell them. The one inconvenience with this printer is the non-availability of print preview facility on the printer - you have to note down the serial number of the image (by viewing on the camera) before inserting the digital memory card into the printer. Overall, this is a good printer for the price you get it.

I was never one to get into photography but with the gift of a sony digital and this HP130 I am in buisness. I take a whole bunch of photos and when I get the one I like I give copies to the folks I think will appreciate it. No waste of money to develope just to see if I got a good Picture....The people around me especialy like my picture of "grumpy" from disneyland last march...they say he is my patron saint...

The hp photosmart 130 has the quality of a photoshop. I got it for 150 dollars thinking what the heck. But when I tried it out it was more like wow, this thing is tight. It prints fast, crisp, clean pictures off your memory card. It's very simple. You stick your card in the correct slot, and the printer will read the images. The only bad thing is that the pictures are numbered by the order that they are on the memory card. So you have to know that. BUT, there is an alteritive. You can select a range of pictures that you think the picture might be in, ex:(1-27) and then it will print out little thumbnails of those pictures with a number under it. Then from that you can decide the picture number you want to print. BUT, it is sometimes hard to determin what picture it is that you want because it is so small.

PROS-
-Inexpensive Ink
-Great Price
-Easy to use
-Quality
-Quikness
-Sturdyness
-size

Cons-
-thumbnails are often too small
