HP 782 Printer Review

Compatible with Windows operating system only, the HP Deskjet 782 is a compact inkjet printer that is intended for the home office. With slow speeds and only average quality, this unit would not be a good match for any business or work group with large printing needs. Compatible with various types of canvases, such as envelopes, transparencies, photo paper and labels, this unit is as versatile as a basic model can be. For an extremely affordable price of less than $100, consumers will have a hard time finding a reason not to purchase the 782.

Featuring only two HP 782 ink cartridges, maintenance and cost of replacements will be minimal. One tank is black, and the other is tricolor, holding cyan, magenta and yellow printer ink. When using only the black HP 782 ink, 6-7 pages per minute can be produced. When printing with color printer ink, only 3-4 pages per minute can be printed.

The drop-on-demand technology uses nozzles to eject tiny dots of HP 782 ink throughout the page and layer them. This is considered dpi, which is how resolutions are measured. The Deskjet 782 ink can reach a maximum resolution of 600x600 dpi, which will produce professional quality with text documents and decent images or graphics. More expensive models can provide more realistic prints, but for less than $100, what more could be asked for?

This inkjet unit weighs less than 15 pounds, making it easy to move and find a place to store. It comes with a high-volume memory to handle multiple image transfers. It is connected via parallel port.

Regardless of how often this printer is used, replacement Deskjet 782 ink cartridges will be needed and can be found online for an affordable price. This is a solid printer that will serve its purpose well.
