We like:
Fast and excellent text prints; pleasing photo and graphics prints; dedicated photo-paper tray; prints from an iPod; great bundled software; prints digital video stills
We don't like:
Photo prints are slow; inability to edit photos on the printer unless in the beginner's wizard mode; can't make bordered 100x150mm prints directly from the printer; can't sort images by date range
CNET UK judgement:
If you're looking for a good, all-around printer for the home, the HP Photosmart D7160 is a decent choice, but if your focus is on photographs, you can do better for just a little more cash
