The HP Deskjet 2720e is an affordable all-in-one printer for scanning, copying and printing documents at home. It is therefore intended more for occasional users.
The HP Deskjet 2720e is a small, easy-to-handle printer that will appeal to casual users. It does what is asked of it in office automation, but you should not expect advanced features. In particular, it does not offer automatic duplexing or borderless photo printing, and its control screen is very basic.
Strong points
- Good print quality.
- Compact printer.
Weak points
- High cost per page.
- No borderless photo printing.
- Build quality.
- No automatic duplex mode.
- Very basic control panel.
NB: The reported price drop is calculated by comparing the lowest price of the day with the average of the lowest prices charged by all merchants for the product last month, with security rules to exclude prices from shops whose the VAT policy is not clear (known as “grey” shops, typically in the case of imports from China).
Alternatively
A budget printer is not necessarily synonymous with poor quality and Canon proves it with its Pixma MG3650S. Easy to set up, it offers borderless photo prints, with precise colorimetry and good quality in office automation. In addition, the cost of printing per page is low and there is even a two-sided mode, which is rather rare in this price range. We simply regret the rather slow print speeds, copies of limited quality and the absence of a touch control screen.
