I have had Photosmart printers for years and have loved them. I bought the B8850 to make larger format photos on water color paper. Specialty tray never worked. Regular B&W had bizarre green tinge. Final straw I couldn't get it to print out on regular bond paper.
What's great about it: Nothing
What's not so great: Set-up, incompatible with Photoshop, terrible phone support
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I am a professional photographer and needed something that could handle my work flow. This printer gets the job done for what I need it to do for my clients. I usually print pictures for wedding albums from this printer and use them in self mount albums for the client. The only down fall I have experienced is when I do not have HP paper and I use Epson or Canon paper the print is not as good as on HP paper. The price was right for me when I began to research photo dedicated printers for my business when it was in the beginning phase. I purchased two of these printers due to my work flow and the deadlines I have to meet. I recommend this printer for anyone just starting out or beginning a business, the price is right!
What's great about it: The setup was really easy, the reputation that HP has and the price was good for a business just starting out.
What's not so great: That you can only use HP's paper for quality output.
I would recommend this to a friend!

The HP B8850 is a wonderful printer. It's my first HP, and I've been extremely pleased with the quality of the color reproduction. So far I've printed only a handful of 5X7's, and 6 13" X 19" photo's. I used the recommended HP paper for the smaller prints, and an HP canvas medium for the large 13X19's. The first canvas print blew me away, and subsequent prints equally great. The large ink tanks are nice, and the way this printer maintains itself is wonderful. I have gotten the nicest compliments so far. I wondered if pigment ink would be as bold and beautiful as dye based, but it really compares, and the longevity is said be far superior. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this printer to anyone.
What's great about it: Very easy to set up with my Mac. Colors printed match my display perfectly.
What's not so great: I've not had it long enough to find fault with it.
I would recommend this to a friend!
