Printer

Ideal for personal use or for a home business, the HP 825C combines a variety of features with an economical price. Average print speeds are 6.5 pages per minute (ppm) for black text, and 4.5 ppm when using colored inks. With either format, your documents receive crisp definition through the 600 x 300 dpi resolution and thermal ink-jet print method. It's ready for letter-, legal-, and executive-size paper, as well as transparencies, envelopes, greeting cards, photo paper, and labels. The paper tray can hold up to 100 sheets of standard paper or 30 envelopes at a time. Weighing in at just 12 pounds, the printer is sized to be especially convenient where space is at a premium. It connects to your system via a USB port and is compatible with Microsoft Windows 98, 2000, and Me. Hewlett Packard offers a 90-day warranty on parts and service.

Camera

This traditional point-and-shoot-style digital camera incorporates a 2.1-megapixel sensor that captures enough detail for crisp prints at sizes up to 8 x 10 inches. Designed for simple operation, the camera features automatic focus, exposure, and flash--just push the button, and the camera does the rest. A 1.8-inch color LCD display on the back of the Photosmart 315 lets you preview and review each photo you take. Additional features include red-eye reduction and fill flash, 2.5x digital zoom, and a self-timer. Images are recorded on reusable CompactFlash cards; an 8 MB card is included. Four AA batteries provide power. HP includes a set of alkalines, but all digital cameras are battery hogs, and we strongly recommend purchasing a set of rechargeable batteries.

4.0 out of 5 stars great package for the money, February 23, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Hewlett Packard PhotoSmart 315 2MP Digital Camera and DESKJET 825CVR Printer Combo (Electronics)

Just bought this package and have been extremely surprised. I had been looking at digital cameras and just recently my printer went south. If you buy the camera alone it is 7/8's the total package price.Printer set up well and seems easy to use. No problems but don't really expect photo quality. Camera is great too for my purposes. Software quite simple. I recomend you also get the optional black printing cartridge and definately ugrade to a larger flash card like a 32 or 64mb. All in all I was not expecting a ... top notch printer [and camera] so I am very pleased. A real value. Only thing I don't like is HP sells the A/C adapter for [aditional money]. This is really necessary if uploading alot. And don't expect the batteries to last as long as the one in the TV remote.

I bought this package about 2 weeks ago and have been very glad that I did. I was looking for my first digital camera but did not want a 1.3 megapixel camera to start with. The image quality is quite good with great color and sharpness. I'd have spent double of what I did buying the printer and camera separately. It is a really sweet deal considering that I was only after the camera. What's more is that both are fully compatible with Mac OS X and iPhoto. I highly recommend this package looking for an entry level digicam and a good quality printer!
