Although it is larger than the competition and it may lack some of the nicer built-in features such as duplexing (using both sides of the document), the Hewlett-Packard 7510 Photosmart All-in-One with eFax and network printing is quite a device.

Did you know that HP with its Photosmart 7510 All-in-One with eFax Printer has hitched this printer to Apple's iOS 4.2 operating system so that not only will it work directly with your iPad or iPhone,HP Photosmart 7510 All-In-One with eFax Printer Articles but it can also work with your iPod, as well? If you have some videos uploaded all you have to do is bring your Apple device near the HP and the image you want to see and/or edit will appear in the four-by-six built-in display. Once you have made all the fixes you want, you can then easily either fax it along or you can print it out. Indeed, HP not only allows you about 1,000 black-and-white impressions, but you also have about 300 color impressions that range from 4 by 6 to a maximum of 8.5 by 11.5 which makes this device quite flexible.

It becomes even more flexible when you consider that not only can you use it with a networked PC as a printserver through a USB port, but, if you want to just use it as part of a network, itself, all you have to do is: Set it up as an old-fashioned printerserver linked to a PC; Use your router's wireless hotspot and the WiFi 802.11 b/g capability built in; Use the Ethernet port built in.

That's pretty easy, isn't it? When you are through you will have a device that not only acts as a printer that will work with either Windows or a Mac but you will also have a device that faxes at 600 dpi or prints as the same level (there is also a color mode available) that delivers up to 99 copies. The All-in-One also acts as a fax or a copier so in one device you have everything you need for your family.

It is bigger than the others on the market at 17.9 by 17.7 by 8.7 and weighs in at a hefty 18.5 pounds but it still has quite a number of nice features, including the 4 by 6-inch built in screen that allows you to manipulate your images before you print them. It is also set up to print directly from the network, however, it will only handle one job at a time.

As a printer, it operates at up to 13.5 pages per minutes in black-and-white mode and 9 pages per minute in color. It's scan resolution is 1200 by 2400 dpi and it acts as a flatbed scanner.

You can boost its efficiency by using duplex printing, but this is a limited option as it will only handle 25 documents. Other networkable printers offer far more duplex ability. The fallback for the HP is its direct link to Macs through an older version of Apple's iOS 4.2.

This is a nice, although older, version of today's more modern printers and it is a bit more flexible as it has more print modes available, including the ability to print directly from memory modules.

Still, is it work the extra money you'll spend on HP supportware? The answer is - it depends. It depends if you want the name HP and its reliability on your network or you are willing to settle for something else that's a little smaller and maybe a tad faster. The ultimate answer is up to you.
