Configuration (8)
HP Printer InkThe A440 is simple in design and accepts only one tricolor cartridge, easily installed into the front of the unit, behind two doors.

Value (6.00)
HP sells 110 ink cartridges for the A440 on their website for $19.99, which they report can yield 55 4x6-inch prints. That works out to 36 cents a print, The 120-sheet print pack is a better deal, which runs 29 cents per print. The latter price is on par with many of their competitors, such as Sony and Canon dye sublimation printers, but more expensive than the Epson Picture Mate series, which are inkjet printers like the A440.

Ink management tool (8.50)
The A440 has a handy screen that allows users to get a rough estimate of ink remaining in the cartridge. One of the screens that can be selected while scrolling through the images on the camera is a blue screen which displays the number of photos remaining that can be printed. Ink levels can also be checked via the HP Solution Center’s Print Status window.
