HP C3194 Printer Review

Looking for an inkjet unit that can print on array of media types including photo paper? Look no further than the HP Photosmart C3194. It can print on anything from envelopes to iron-on transfers to plain paper to labels. This all in one can also work its magic on a large amount of media sizes like letter, legal, executive, cards, and 4x6 inch. It seems like no matter what project is needed, the HP C3194 has the capability to make it happen and does so with high quality and quick speeds. This thermal inkjet unit works best in home offices offering printing, scanning and copying for an affordable price.

While many photo printers might tend to cost buyers a large amount of money for upfront price and special photo printer ink tanks, the HP C3194 isn't as pricey. Only two HP C3194 ink cartridges are needed, and these tanks are black and tricolor—cyan, magenta and yellow. Both Photosmart C3194 ink tanks yield 220 pages, which isn't very many pages for the price. However, if buying printer ink often isn't a worry, most buyers will see the overall quality and finished product resolutions are worth the price.

Though it is only optional, a photo color Photosmart C3194 ink cartridge is available. The photo HP C3194 ink tank yields only 130 pages, and it will surely run out before most users want to go to the store and by another.

Mac and Windows operating systems are both supported by the C3194; however, it does lack both wireless connection options and faxing features. HP C3194 ink may run a little high, but if using the printer only on occasion, this could be the most inexpensive option out there. For those who plan on doing a lot of printing, though, this could become an unnecessary expense.
