Advantages: Will print on thick card up to 260g

Disadvantages: Leaflets fall on the floor

I have had an 890C for 3 1/2 years now, it is great for printing on card - handles 260g card stock with ease, and envelopes print well, but you are best to keep an eye on them, occasionally one will not drop and you will get the print from the next envelope on it.

I have noticed a build up of black ink just under the docking well, but it is easy to remove and wipe out, otherwise you might get a smudge on the end of your page.

I was a little annoyed when HP reduced the amount of ink in the colour cartridge by a 1/4, which made me look for a more economical solution to my printing.

The print quality is excellent, and photos are great printed a High Quality on Glossy paper.

Great Printer if you do a lot of colour work, but a little slow for printing lots of leaflets. Also, when printing more than 20 leaflets, they tend to fall on the floor as there is no tray to catch them in. I use a sheet of heavy card and bend it a little.
