HP 4319 Printer Review

Some buyers need a compact inkjet printer that provides high-quality photo prints, while others need a device that can scan, copy, and fax. The HP OfficeJet 4319 All-in-One includes the best of both worlds, with fast printing speeds and high resolutions, all at a low upfront price. HP 4319 printer ink isn't as affordable as some competing models, but compatible alternatives are available.

The 4319 has the vertical orientation and size of a large, dedicated fax machine, but can handle so much more. When its input, output, and feeder trays are closed, its dimensions are 16.4x13x8 inches, and it weighs just 12 pounds, making it light enough for home users to move around with ease. The input paper tray holds up to 100 sheets, depending on the media type, and the output and document feeder trays can each hold 20 sheets.

For a somewhat business-centric device, buyers might expect reduced quality for photos and color projects, but it supports an optimized resolution of 4800 dpi using color HP 4319 printer ink, and 1200 dpi for black projects, which can create anything from sharp text to smooth, accurate photos. Photos can be edited and enhanced with the included image editor software, which is easy to use.

There are only two OfficeJet 4319 ink cartridges to replace: one black and one tricolor. This makes purchasing and replacing the HP 4319 ink cartridges simple, but can result in more wasted ink than models that offer individual colors. While prices for OEM supplies aren't particularly high, choosing compatible OfficeJet 4319 ink is recommended to cut costs.

With robust faxing and copy, and high-resolution printing and scanning, the 4319 offers the best features of a consumer inkjet and an office machine. Lack of a flatbed scanner is a minor limitation, but buyers who don't mind will get an affordable device that is packed with great features.
