HP C309 Printer Review

The HP PhotoSmart C309 is a wireless multifunction inkjet printer. It is designed for the home or small office user but has the business-centric features that a professional needs. Its print speeds are fast at up to 33 pages per minute for black and 32 pages per minute for color, and it even includes some unexpected surprises, like disc burning capabilities. HP C309 ink costs are very low, keeping ongoing costs down.

The HP C309 (also known as the C309A or C309G in other countries) can print, scan, copy and fax. It can not only print two-sided prints but it can also scan and copy two-sided documents with its built-in duplexer. It supports digital camera media cards as well as USB hard drives and allows users to load and preview photos directly. As an added bonus, it has a CD/DVD drive for burning photos directly to a disc, without the need for a computer.

The low cost of PhotoSmart C309 ink can make a big difference for any budget, as printer ink is the largest ongoing cost of any model. HP C309 ink cartridges have a capacity of 300 pages for each cartridge. High-yield PhotoSmart C309 ink cartridges are also available, with more than double the capacity. This results in a much lower cost per page, and therefore, more savings for the user.

User reviews of the HP C309 inkjet are very positive. Users like its low price, especially considering its large feature set. Many users love the convenience of the included CD/DVD drive for backing up photos or making CDs for family members. One buyer also mentioned minor problems with faxing that need to be overcome.

Overall, the HP C309 is an impressive all-in-one machine that offers many functions and features for an affordable price. Print quality and print speed are also very impressive.
