Front
The HP Photosmart D7460 gives off the impression that its intention was to be sleek. When closed, it is almost a perfect rectangle with rounded corners. The color combination adds to this attempted affect. The front of the printer is primarily silver while the rest of the printer is white. The Compactflash, multi-media and xD card slots are housed under a clear upward lifting glass door on the top right hand side of the printer. Below it is the Pictbridge USB port, which is open; it has no cover or casing to protect it from any dust or debris. The front of the printer also holds the trays, both input and output. Designed like shelving, the input tray rests on the bottom while a shelved tray above it houses the small photo tray and also acts like an output tray.
Documents and larger photos, beginning with 5x7s, are placed in the bottom tray and released above the top photo tray. While the bottom tray is open and can be pulled out to place papers in, the top tray has a lid that is pulled up.
The top half, or the silver lid, of the printer lifts up to reveal the inks. There’s a latch to lift up the frame, you put the ink and place and close the frame. Re-latching the frame keeps the ink cartridges in place. They look like colorful toys; even the feel of them is rubbery almost like playdough.
Right Side
The right side of the printer is mostly white and free of any ports and plugs.
Left Side
The left side of the printer, like the right, is also predominantly white with no ports and plugs.
Back
The back of the HP Photosmart D7460 consists of the product information and three ports: power, etherent and USB.
There's also a lid that can be completely removed to reveal the interior of the printer, which is useful in case of a paper jam.
Components
Display (9.5)
All of the HP D7460’s on-unit menu navigation takes place through its 3.5-inch touchscreen. The sensitivity on the touchscreen is well-calibrated; it doesn’t run off at the slightest touch but it also doesn’t require immense pressure. The display is bright, colorful and depicts photographs well. The touchscreen displays graphics well and at different angles. The screen is thin and can be adjusted to your preference; you can lay it down flat if you like or pull it up to a straight vertical stand.
Paper Trays
The HP D7460 has two input trays: the bottom one for larger papers – 5x7 to 8x10 inch and legal size papers – and the top tray for 4x6 inch photo paper. The printer is really good about sensing the paper type in the trays;for example if you're trying to print a photograph on document paper, the printer will notice and will ask you to put in the correct photo paper. So it’s important to keep the page type selection accurate. The bottom, larger paper tray has an input maximum capacity of 100 pages.
