In a sea of inkjet competitors, the Photosmart D7160 stands out for its conveniences and its superior photo prints. Though some comparable printers may cost less or print a little faster, this would still be a good buy.

HP’s Officejet Pro K5400dn is the perfect printer for small businesses that don’t need multifunction capabilities. Although it doesn’t have the largest feature set, the features it does boast are implemented well and it provides tough competition for its laser counterparts.

The well-priced Photosmart C5180 has much to offer for printing photos and for sharing on a small network. It delivers high-quality glossy photos, but its plain-paper photo prints are not great.

Fast print speeds and a lot of features--including wireless capability--would make the IP4000R a good buy even if its printing costs weren't so low.

Priced at $299, the D7360 is exceptionally easy to use and has the best software bundle in the business. But, its image quality is merely good, and plain-paper printing is clearly not its strong point.

The Aficio GX3000 is a photo printer posing as a business model. Office users would be well advised to set their sights on a laser printer instead.

The HP Business Inkjet 1200d makes a good workhorse printer for a small office, as long as paper-handling options are more important to you than print quality.

The iP6600D is particularly suited to printing photos directly from a digital camera or media card, and two paper trays and a duplexer add to its versatility. It's going to cost you, but the respectable running costs make it a good investment if you want quality photos.
