The HP Officejet 5610 All-in-one printer turned out to be a cool find for me. I’ve had our printer now for about six months and it’s been a great all around printer. This printer will pretty much take care of all your printing, faxing, scanning, and copying needs at a great price. The printer comes with a black and color cartridge. If you are planning on printing photos I would recommend getting the optional six-ink color cartridge which is sold separately.
Printing Speed and Details
Using the HP Officejet 5610 All-in-one printer you can print up to 20 pages per minute in black. If you want to print in color you are looking at around 13 pages per minute. The printer will copy, scan, and send faxes and has a 25-sheet document feeder.
High-quality Document Scanning
I think it’s great having my scanner and copier built into my printer. The All-in-one will scan your photos and documents with 1200 x 2400 dpi optical resolution. The scanner has a 48-bit color depth. If you don’t have a PC have no worries since you can scan, print and fax without a PC connection.

What comes in the box
If you are in the market for a new printer I give my recommendation for this printer. Happy printing!
Purchase the HP Officejet 5610 All-in-One on Amazon.com.
