HP OFFICEJET PRO K5400 COLOR PRINTERThe HP Officejet K5400 December is a low-cost, high-color printing quality inkjet printer aimed at small and medium enterprises. The No Frills basic model starts at a reasonable $ 150, and printing costs are low, too. Many buses inkjet we considered these costs are multifunctional and print a little slower than the K5400, but moreover, makes it so difficult to compare them to other printers in its class. In just a little more money, you can make a monochrome printer - the type of printer, usually in offices - that help better graphics and faster products K5400 text, but would not be difficult imagine the color for this award And Low-Cost laser printer will certainly not produce pictures. Despite the odd duck, we found a quantity of this office inkjet. It is quite quickly its text and graphic images are impressive, and the ability to print photos (although not a star) is certainly good. And it certainly fills a small place. We recommend you ga for small offices with a tight budget, which did not need certain functions, like copying or scanning, and as inkjet on a laser printer because of the ability to create photographs . It is also a decent choice for students must be of high quality text and graphics can afford more superbudget printer. On the other hand, for very small businesses want to spend about 200 dollars for the Office of work in the form of a horse in monochrome laser, we advise you, Samsung ML-2571.
Design
The HP Officejet December K5400, black and white body sees the brighter and more elegant HP and glue, as a general rule, the color scheme, but enough to see the back of the office. The body is heavy, especially for the functions of inkjet printer, it is 19.5 cm wide, 15 cm deep and 8.1 inches tall, and weighs just over 19 pounds.
A paper cassette wood on the front of the printer and paper serves as a centre handling. On the underside of 250 sheets of paper with adjustable food tours. Summit is a list of liquids reunion, discipline, extendable arm, graphics from a long case to the earth.
On the panel is limited to four lights, individual ink tanks and three buttons: the power to denounce, and animal feed. A front door on the left side of the paper cassette opens four ink reservoirs. Instead of attaching directly to the print head, as in most inkjet printers, sitting in their tanks young corral, and siphon tubes, ink reservoirs at the head of the printer. The advantage of this configuration is that ga evolution makes it even easier ink tanks, you should not open the location of the printer and wait until the print head to move, to determine the position and ink tanks, if the printer is switched on. HP offers standard and high-capacity storage devices. Standard black tank costs $ 20, a standard tank of color (cyan, magenta, yellow) costs $ 15. The high-capacity versions cost $ 35 and $ 25, or. HP print cost estimates are 1.5 per cent per page in black and 6 per cent per colour. These pro-footer for inkjet printers, especially for a good start.

Performance
HP made two sets of print speeds for the month of December K5400: 36 pages per minute (ppm) in black and 35ppm for colour, in draft mode; 12ppm (black) 10 ppm (colour) in the best quality. HP calls the best quality, the mode of "laser". In CNET Labs' tests, text printed in black 10.16ppm quality scores that are not too far from HP's candidacy speed. By way of comparison, the $ 150 Canon Pixma MP510 multifunction printed text to the tune of 6.37ppm, and $ 180 Samsung SCX-4200 multifunction laser 13.42ppm printed text. K5400 December cubits a PowerPoint presentation to the tune of 6.11ppm and graphics on the page 6.21ppm. When printing a 4x6 photo, won 1.42ppm, but if the print job of 10, 4x6 copies, on average higher 1.84ppm (processing time is spread over the photos). The PIXMA MP510 printed a photo 4x6 assess 1.26ppm. We were impressed, K5400, print speeds very quickly for inkjet printers.
Print quality was very good for inkjet printers. At first sight, we noticed that the text is rich and black characters were good. In the case closer look, we found that some less jagged edges and barely perceptible wicking. "In the vicinity of lasers" is true; K5400 graphic text has been better than almost all multifunction inkjet printer, we checked. Graphic print, with smooth color gradations of a pleasing color saturation and accuracy. Photo elements are a little washed, but also showed great detail. The printer had some problems with bar-style model. The color photos are helpful, but nowhere in the vicinity the display quality. We have seen, of course, grain, particularly in blocks of color and skin color, and color, the overall image of Dumpfheit. This is a desktop printer directed, a photo printer, it is understandable that, as a product less stellar photos. However, this printer is uncertain for the photo of May serve as a reference, perhaps for a small insurance company or real estate brokerage.
