About this product

Product Information

The HP Deskjet 450 mobile inkjet printer is a versatile device that makes high-quality prints without being tied to your Windows or Mac home computer. This type of compact device lets you easily print out documents or photos. It’s small enough to carry around and works via battery power for a truly portable printing experience. Perfectly suitable for busy professionals on the road, the HP Deskjet 450 mobile inkjet printer works equally well with a Windows or Mac computer. The HP Deskjet 450 mobile inkjet printer’s engine features a native resolution of 1200 dpi with an enhanced resolution of up to 4800 by 1200 dpi. When you select standard black text, the device can print up to nine pages a minute. If you turn up the quality setting, the speed of the printing goes down to 1 page per minute to ensure the crispest text and mixed color ink. A full page photo can take up to 10 minutes for the printing process. This depends on the print size and the quality you select. Special photo paper is necessary to get quality picture prints. The HP Deskjet 450 mobile inkjet printer uses two combined ink and print head cartridges. The tri-color cartridge is used for printing documents in standard color, while the other slot interchanges between a photo color cartridge and a black cartridge. The HP Deskjet 450 mobile inkjet printer measures in at 13.3 inches wide by 3.2 inches deep by 6.5 inches high and can easily fit into a briefcase or luggage. This device has sturdy construction and weighs about 4.5 pounds; it’s lighter than some laptops. Setting up and installing the HP Deskjet 450 mobile inkjet printer only takes a few minutes. There’s a handy poster that walks you through the process, and because of its USB port, the printer works with both Mac and Windows operating systems. It comes with a parallel cable, but you need your own USB cable. At the rear of the HP Deskjet 450 mobile inkjet printer, there’s a CompactFlash slot that allows you to add a Bluetooth adapter. This permits wireless printing from handheld devices. The included driver software CD easily lets you set these printers up for mobile devices. This HP Deskjet 450 mobile inkjet printer model type features drivers software equipped with the HP Deskjet Toolbox utility. This software lets you monitor the charge level of the battery and keep an eye on the ink levels in the cartridges. This is important if you’re using the printer away from your home computer; the front panel of the HP Deskjet 450 mobile inkjet printer doesn’t give an indication of how much battery charge is left. The front panel does allow you to perform maintenance tasks, such as making sure the print heads align after cartridge changes. The drivers’ software on the HP Deskjet 450 mobile inkjet printer allows you to upload usage information to HP so you can monitor how much ink you’re using via a personalized webpage. You also have the option to disable this driver software any time you want on a Windows or Mac operating system-compatible computer.

  • Good value if work through small matters

    I had several users clamoring for an affordable portable office setup to pack and work from anywhere with WIFI. One user wanted to put everything in a motorcycle saddlebag. Printing was generally light but necessary. So I bought 6 of these, untested, removed from police cars. 5 were missing the paper feed tray (easy fix with a couple of paper clips and thin coffee straws), 1 had a bad color print head (but worked with only a black cartridge installed), and 2 had paper feed problems (but good print heads, and can use 1 to fix the printer above). To run in Windows 10, the driver has to be set up in compatibility mode, but once done, they work perfectly. Ink cartridges are cheap (less than $15 for a pair, $11 for 2 black ones), so all in all a very affordable portable office solution for someone with light printing needs on the road.

  • Small package, great for college

    This is the perfect printer for space-conscious college students. It's fast, quiet, and fits in a drawer. Although most colleges have plenty of networked printers, having something in the dorm room for those cold, or rainy nights can be very nice. A solid HP printer, the cartridges have the standard 500 page life, and the install is easy.

  • Superb Portable Travel Printer

    I'm an outside sales professional who needs to print on a construction job site (without power) one day and in a dentist's office the next, so I need a small, reliable, optionally battery operated printer. This little beauty fit the bill perfectly! Thr printer came with everything (battery, power chord, ink and a test page)! It was easy to setup on my Mac, booted quickly and was up and running in no time. It's light enough to carry in my bag. I don't know what the continuous battery life is because I turn it off when I'm not using but, in this way, the battery didn't run out the whole day. Printers with these feature can run in the $200+ range, and I purchased another printer through eBay and was irritated it didn't come with a power chord or battery or ink, and didn't have that problem with this printer. Additionally, the seller was great. They sent me tracking information, and followed up with me to see how I liked the printer. Overall I'm very happy! Great product, price and service.
