Review: HP Deskjet Ink Advantage 3785

Billed as the smallest all-in-one printer, the HP Deskjet Ink Advantage 3785 does offer lots of functionality in an overall small package. In terms of desk real estate, it occupies a tiny bit and still manages to steal the show when it comes to actually performing some jobs.

Clad in white and green, the 3785 is very easy to setup. Once you remove the printer from the packaging, proceed to connect it to the power outlet and switch it on. Then lift the cartridge mechanism door so that the cartridge bays slide into position for you to insert the ink cartridges. Once this is done, go to 123.hp.com for a quick and painless installation procedure.
