Deskjet Review

I have no idea about this photo ink cartridges thing. Can someone please explain like how many cartridges should be used when printing photos? I mean there should be a colour cartridge and a black cartridge too right?

Also, will HP Deskjet 3744 will produce quality pictures?

There is only two cartridges that you can use with this printer. The black cartridge is #27 and the color cartridge is #28. There is no special photo cartridge for this printer, because this printer is not designed for printing high quality photos.
Yes, you can print some photos, but the qualitiy of them won’t be very good. The photos won’t look as sharp as if you were printing them with a printer designed to print photos.
I would suggest looking at a Photosmart printer by HP or a printer of your choice.

Here’s what I found on HP’s website:
One or more optional photo cartridges may be available, depending on your printer model.
Use the photo cartridge with a tri-color cartridge for best-quality color photos and graphics, and sepia or antique photos.
Choose a gray photo cartridge to print black and white photos with truer grays and richer blacks

The choice between the purchases of many different types of printers can be a challenging one. As sophisticated technology continues to change the landscape of the office environment, it becomes more and more difficult to determine the best course of action when choosing an appropriate printer. The laser printer, one of the more popular types of printers, has a variety of benefits that sets it apart from its counterparts.

As its name suggests, a laser printer employs the work of a laser beam to complete the printing process; the laser – like a camera of sorts – captures the image to be printed. The information is then printed by the toner cartridge which is standard to the laser printer. While other printers utilize liquid ink in their toner cartridges, a laser printer works with a powder ink that makes for a pristine and sophisticated result. The laser printer, free from ink and, therefore, free from smearing, produces a high resolution, and much more professional looking product than many other printers.

Office environments often turn to the laser printer for exactly this reason and are confident they can trust the laser printer to give them consistent professional results. And when, as is often the case in offices, multitudes of documents are printed at one time, the laser printer more than holds up to this increased need, leaving you free to concentrate on other things.

For a more creative work environment that relies on the printing of graphics and color photos, the laser printer continues to maintain its popularity. As office needs change, the laser printer keeps pace, elevating its technology almost yearly to match the demand for high resolution, photo quality copies.

Because of its price, the laser printer is often relegated to the office, rather than chosen for home use. But either way you use a laser printer, you will undoubtedly find its quality and reliability to be unmatched.
