What's Hot

Design and Aesthetics, LCD Display and Menu System, Printing Speeds, Automatic Document Feeder, Excellent Colour Reproduction and Image Detail

What's Not

Expensive Cartridges, Grainy Effect in Prints

The Final Word

It's not without its faults, but the Photosmart 8230 is an above average photo printer with speed as its number one drawing card. It does suffer from graining effects, but its colour reproduction and level of detail is excellent for a photo printer in this price range.
