Good-Looking Images and Graphics with HP Envy Photo 6255 All-in-One Printer

PROS
Reasonable price. Attractive design. Low running costs with Instant Ink. Good overall print quality.
CONS
Cost per page exceptionally high without Instant Ink. Banding in dark gradients and backgrounds. Wasteful two-cartridge ink system holds all four inks.
BOTTOM LINE
The Envy Photo 6255 is a small, lightweight, and attractive consumer-grade AIO that prints good-looking photos and does so at highly competitive running costs, though only when you sign up for HP’s Instant Ink.

lower-end model in a trio of entry-level consumer-grade all-in-one (AIO) inkjet photo printers that HP released recently, the Envy Photo 6255 All-in-One Printer ($129.99) competes directly with the Editors’ Choice Canon Pixma TS9120 Wireless Inkjet Printer, as well as a few others in the Pixma TS-series line. The Envy 6255 is a bit slower, shorter on features, and its photo print quality falls a little behind that of the Canon TS9120; on the other hand, when you pair it with HP’s Instant Ink subscription service, you get some of the lowest per-page running costs from a consumer-grade photo printer available, making the Envy 6255 an excellent alternative for homes and families who want to print a few hundred photos inexpensively.
