![]() Canon’s Pixma MX882 is a similarly straightforward and competent choice. But not everyone needs that feature, and the Photosmart 7510 is easy to use and good at just about everything else a home or home office user might want. HP’s Photosmart 7510 does not follow this season’s trend of tacking on CD/DVD printing-available in models from simple, sub-$100 inkjets to $400 flagships. The photo black cartridge costs $10 for 130 photos (7.7 cents per photo), or $18 for 290 photos (6.2 cents per photo). The XL black represents less of a savings at $23 for 550 pages or 4.2 cpp. You can reduce color ink costs significantly with the XL cartridges, which are $18 for 750 pages, or 2.4 cpp. That’s just shy of 15 cents for a four-color page. The three standard color cartridges (cyan, magenta, and yellow) cost $10 each and last for 300 pages (3.33 cents per page), while the standard black costs $12 and lasts for 250 pages, or 4.8 cents per page (cpp). The Photosmart 7510’s ink costs are reasonable. Photos printed on plain paper look nice, other than orange-ish flesh tones on HP’s Advanced Photo Paper, the quality is smooth and realistic, though in a somewhat solemn color palette, with darker areas gradating to black somewhat quickly. Text is sharp and dark at default settings, and monochrome graphics are rich, though slightly green.

Scanning and copying speeds are a tad faster than average compared with other inkjet MFPs we’ve tested. Switching to HP Advanced Photo Paper and finer-quality settings, the same photo took 33 seconds (1.8 ppm), and a full-page, high-resolution photo print on the Mac took about 2.5 minutes (a middling rate of 0.4 ppm). ![]() On letter-size plain paper (Hammermill Laserprint) at default settings, text pages emerged at a speedy rate of 9.6 pages per minute (ppm) on the PC and 9 ppm on the Mac a 4-by-6-inch photo took 15 seconds (or 4 ppm). The Photosmart 7510 can print and scan in duplex (both sides of the page).įor an inkjet, the Photosmart 7510 was fast in most of our tests. This feeder makes up for the fact that the lid for the A4 flatbed scanner doesn’t telescope to accommodate thicker materials.

The main paper tray holds 125 sheets, while a second tray integrated into the top of the main tray holds 20 sheets of photo paper up to 5-by-7-inch size. While the Photosmart 7510 is aimed at users who print lots of photos, its paper-handling features are more than adequate for a small or home office as well. The printer is also fully endowed with cloud-printing capabilities, specifically HP’s own Web-based apps, and HP ePrint and Apple AirPrint for printing from mobile devices. The 4.3-inch color touchscreen LCD panel has a clear, icon-based menu structure.
