When scanning, your three target options are reprint (basically, a copy), a memory card, and the attached PC. We really like the latter option because it prevents wasted paper from errors such as incorrect positioning. A couple of unexpected features include the ability to crop the original document and preview the copy before printing it.
When copying, you can resize within a range of 50 to 400 percent, change the output quality, and make up to 50 copies at once. The Photosmart C5280 is a USB-only printer that works with both Windows and Mac operating systems. Using the XL versions for best value, we calculate that black text costs about 4 cents per page and a full color print costs about 10.7 cents per page-both numbers are low for an inexpensive inkjet printer. The regular color cartridge costs $18 for about 170 pages, and the XL version costs $35 for about 520 pages. The regular black costs $15 and prints roughly 200 pages, while the XL version costs $30 and is good for about 750 pages. Both black and regular tricolor tanks come in regular and XL (or high-capacity) versions. The Photosmart C5280 uses a two-tank ink system: one black and one tricolor tank, though you can swap out the black for an optional tricolor photo tank for six-color photo printing. The disc feeding mechanism folds down sit to atop the output tray and a disc tray is hidden under the input tray. One new feature on this printer is the ability to print directly onto the back of specially coated CDs and DVDs. Additionally, a dedicated photo paper tray is mounted into the output tray and can hold up to 20 sheets of 4圆 photo paper. The main input tray can hold up to 125 sheets of plain paper.
Paper handling is simple: the input and output trays are combined into a single cassette, with the output tray on top. Unfortunately, this model lacks a USB PictBridge port, so you can't print from a PictBridge-enabled camera or a flash thumbdrive, as you can with the Dell Photo 966.
Four memory card slots are mounted on the front of the unit and take all the major card types, though some require adapters.
