Portable Photo Lab by Trucktech68801 on walmart.com Jan 29, 2009
I bought this printer on the recommendation on my mother, who has a similar product, and I was quite impressed from the start. It is easy to set up and use, and the software was effortless to install on my computers. It also works well with a variety ...

HP Photosmart A526: Great Quality, Expensive Ink! by webownage on dooyoo.co.uk Jul 26, 2011

HP PhotoSmart A526 by Tiny Pieces LLC on amazon.com Jul 4, 2008
I bought this product on sale and am very happy with it. I have an all-in-one that does pictures but it is to much of a bother to set-up the tray every time I want to print pictures. The A526 prints directly from the memory card. The pictures look great! ...

HP Photosmart A526 by Indianapolis27 on walmart.com Dec 28, 2008
Purchasing the product online from WalMart was a huge mistake. The printer was purchase for my daughter as a Christmas present and when we tried to use it, it didn't know work. We called Tech Support and was on the phone with them for over 2 hours. Not ...
 
Waste of Money If you expect good clear prints! by Janessa Lundy "Artistic Technology Movie Fan" on amazon.com Nov 28, 2008
This printer has NO options what so ever, you can't even zoom or crop or adjust any colors in the slightest. Also the print quality is substandard even on top quality expensive photopaper. The edges are not sharp on details in photos and the colors ...
 
Expensive by mtwrangler on walmart.com Dec 27, 2008
A great product, does all it's says it does, but has an introductory cartridge only good for ten pictures. That part is ok, but when I went to get the 110 HP ink cartridge, Walmart only has it bundled with a 50 photo paper pack that cost almost 45 dollars ...
 
Don't waste your money or time by A. Johnson on amazon.com Dec 28, 2009
All I can say is this is really a terrible printer. Printed about a half dozen pictures -quality so-so. Couldn't figure out why then the pictures started printing very poor quality with a weird whitish color overlaying the pictures.
 
Easy to Use by MamaDoxie on walmart.com Sep 4, 2008
This product is very easy & uncomplicated to use. Picture quality is great. Printing time only 1-1/2 minutes. Much faster than my printer. Would recommend to anyone who is way over the hill and cannot keep up with all of the new electronics.

It comes with a "starter" toner cartridge that is good for maybe a dozen prints...This makes 1/2 the photo on one sheet and the other 1/2 on the second sheet, so I recommend only placing one sheet in at a time...I bought this printer on the recommendation on my mother, who has a similar product, and I was quite impressed from the start...

fool proof cant think of any bad points Doesnt need a computer to print store quality prints Only three sheets of paper and a 'trial' ink cartridge included in package which means have to purchase ink and paper very quickly after purchase...easy to use colour good compact so easy transportable printing a little slow but only if you have a train to catch Good prints Instructions not as easy as I would have liked Good quality and great results...Very straight forward to use, great product design, excellent print quality GOOD PRICE, GOOD COMPACT SIZE, EASE OF USE AND CAN TAKE IT ANYWHERE...

HP Photosmart A526 (”Small Format” Photo Printer) review
I should also mention that photo paper is actually quite expensive and so I would recommend that you take full advantage of the mini-display and check over your pictures properly before printing, as not to waste paper...Overall I would give the HP Photosmart A526 a score of 8 out of 10...The speed is a little slow but the user-friendliness and features incorporated makes this Photosmart a very good printer and good value for money...

HP Photosmart A526 Compact Photo Printer Review & Rating | PCMag.com
Small...Lightweight...Prints 4-by-6s and up to 4-by-12-inch panoramas....Has trouble printing photos with dark areas....The A526 offers few of the features that make those two printers so attractive, and it even stubs its toe on the basics...In keeping with its status as a low-end photo printer, the A526 is designed primarily for 4-by-6-inch photos, although it can print at up to 4 by 12 inches...The good news is that the A526's prints should last......

HP PhotoSmart A526 Review - Inkjet Printers - CNET Reviews
Low price; dead easy to use; easily portable; cute....Fewer onboard features than the competition; requires a PC connection for image editing and enhancement;...The HP Photosmart A526 is the entry-level model in the company's new line of snapshot printers...It's clear that HP intends this for "light" users who simply want to print a photo without enhancing it, but we find it difficult to recommend the Photosmart A526 since other printers offer more for the...

The Photosmart A526's minimal-options approach to printing photos will be a relief for some, a frustration for others...The Photosmart A526's menus offer plenty of maintenance and how-to content, but just a handful of printing options...You can also use the Photosmart A526 to transfer photos from a memory card to your PC...Photos we printed on the A526 looked very good overall...Installing the printer on a PC takes a little while, because it loads a good dollop of software...

Inexpensive Natural-looking color palette...Slow Spartan controls...On the surface, it’s a nice bargain for home users who print infrequently, but the pricey black ink and all-too-brief 90-day warranty make it a meager long-term deal...With a touchscreen LCD and sleek styling, this MFP looks good and delivers nice output for light-volume home or student users...Speed, high paper capacity, and inexpensive inks make this full-featured MFP...

HP PhotoSmart A526 review | from TechRadar's expert reviews of Printers
Bargain price > Great print quality > Good memory card support...Slow > Basic feature set...Not only does it occupy a much smaller desktop footprint than many rival printers (and especially the dye-sub printers), it's dramatically cheaper, too, undercutting the next-cheapest by nearly £30...In our portrait test, the A526 proved almost as good as the Epson, with just a shade less contrast but equally vivid colours...Its landscape shot had slightly more...

HP Photosmart A526 review | Expert Reviews
Despite being one of the cheapest compact photo printers we've ever reviewed, HP's Photosmart A526 still has a colour screen and support for direct printing from memory cards and digital cameras with PictBridge support...The printer opens to reveal a rear paper tray that can take up to 20 6x4in sheets at the back, and an output tray, memory card slots and access to the ink cartridge at the front...The A526 was the second-slowest in the group, taking 14 minutes and 25 seconds to print six 6x4in snaps...
