Hewlett-Packard Photosmart 7960 Printer Review | PCWorld
Good color Very good detail reproduction...Uneconomical three-color ink cartridges Expensive Rather slow...In this roundup, we looked at two new printers from Canon -- the $250 i900D and the $200 i960 -- Epson's $179 Stylus Photo R300, Hewlett-Packard's $300 Photosmart 7960, and Lexmark's $80 Z705...The quality of the output had to be at least...

HP Photosmart 7660 7760 7960 Review & Rating | PCMag.com
Like most ink jets today, the 7660, 7760, and 7960 use a proprietary setup routine to install drivers and other software...This level of performance is good enough to be acceptable for general-purpose use...All told, the 7760 is easy to recommend as a dedicated photo printer, thanks to its excellent output quality and well-designed menus and buttons...If your answer is "a bigger color LCD,"...

HP Photosmart 7960 Printer | Shutterbug
Some people hate the hassle of downloading images to a computer, so the HP 7960 allows for direct printing from memory cards...The process is a bit slow with cards containing many high resolution images because the HP 7960 has only 16MB of RAM memory...Insert the proof sheet into the paper holder and the HP 7960 will scan it to determine your "order...Thanks...

The HP Photosmart 7960 stands out most in terms of design...In keeping with this, the printer comes with all the trimmings...We also liked the tray system that HP has set up...Photo quality from the 7960 was excellent, although it was pipped in the colour photo test by the Canon i905D...

Digital Imaging Printer Review: Hewlett-Packard Photosmart 7960 Printer
Pigments and dyes take different approaches to that problem...We weren't sure they were our photos, the prints looked so good...The others reproduced the color accurately, although the Champion, a lighter sheet, exhibited some track marks across the surface of the sheet, probably from the small pinwheels the 7960 uses to advance the paper...For years we've recommended printing black...

The HP Photosmart 7960 is physically very wide in order to accommodate three ink cartridges at a time...A low profile design, the 7960 doesn't sprout extra paper rests and lids in order to be used...When used without a host PC you can preview images to be printed, configure print selections and settings and view the status of a print job via a 2.5 inch colour LCD screen...
