Conclusion
The HP Photosmart C5180 All-in-One photo printer offers good functionality at a competitive price. The control panel is clearly laid out, but the small LCD and poor menu colors and design make interface a less pleasant experience than with other all-in-one printers, such as the Canon Pixma MP600. HP provides some interesting, useful, and playful menu options, such as the ability to print lined papers and project templates. However, the noise of the scan/copy head and the lackluster print quality should steer consumers toward better quality models like the Canon Pixma MP600. Consumers more concerned about cost per print may want to check out the Kodak EasyShare 5300.
