HP Photosmart 6520 Printer {Review}

So if you've read this blog long, or even if you haven't, you've probably noticed that I am completely obsessed with photos! Which leads to quite a few trips to Costco to get them all printed! It always ends up being a whole big ordeal, ordering them online, making the trip into town, waiting around until they are done... with two kids, it doesn't necessarily make my like easier! So when Staples contacted me with the offer to receive and review one of their HP photo printers, I was ecstatic!

The HP Photosmart 6520 e-All-in-one Printer is seriously amazing! I could not believe the quality photos it produces, along with the amazing regular printing! It is so nice to be able to get high quality prints, and not have to leave my house! I am in love with this printer!

amazing, right!? A few of my favorite features so far are the wi-fi printing, it's SO nice not to have to carry my laptop across the house to print out quick documents! I also love the touch screen display! It made the printer SO easy to install! and printing/scanning/copying is a breeze! With my old scanner, I had to search my computer for the program, but now I just tap the screen a few times!

I am SO excited to use this printer for projects ALL over my house! A few I already have in mind are; the kids scrapbooks, flashcards, re-doing my photo wall, and a few 4th of july printables!
