Nevertheless, when consumable costs are an important factor in the decision, the C6280's cheaper running costs are an advantage. Well, today my HP Photosmart C6280 told me I didn't have any scan options It didn't even tell me my LCD list needed to be upgraded. When compared to the 32.8c/page of the Officejet J6480 All-in-One, it is clear that the C6280 and its six-ink system doesn't necessarily provide too much in the way of cost savings. The C6280 manages a cost per page of 30c, which is cheap enough for common usage. The ability to scan up to a resolution of 4800dpi allows the C6280 to scan images at a reasonably high quality. In comparison to the Canon PIXMA MP970, the C6280 didn't possess the same vibrancy but managed to produce a greater amount of detail as a result. Our scanning tests revealed that the C6280 managed to produce an image with balanced colour. A4 photos exaggerate this printer's shortcomings, and the quality in 4圆in photos should suffice for the average user. Unfortunately, when printing A4 photos the C6280 loses quite a bit of black definition, and the overall picture is much more washed-out than 4圆in photos.

There was no sign of banding, though reds seemed a little indistinct, causing flesh tones to be slightly unrealistic. In 4圆in photos, lines were distinct and blacks quite defined. When printing from the computer at best quality, results were significantly better. Banding and odd contrast results appeared inconsistently, mainly when using the C6280's PC-less printing feature or when printing at normal quality.

On normal quality setting, 4圆in photos printed in 1min12sec, whereas best quality 4圆in photos actually printed faster, averaging 50sec. Quality and speed were both quite inconsistent during our photo printing tests. While the C6280 isn't necessarily designated for text printing, a printer designed for the home should be able to print decent quality text documents for use at work or school. If you need an adapter, plug the adapter into the USB-C port first, then plug the cable into the USB adapter. It should fit into one of the USB ports on the side of your computer (laptop) or on the back of the iMac display (desktop). This improved somewhat when printing text with graphical elements, though this may be because of the text's imperfections being masked by a colour background. Plug the printers USB cable into your computer. Text was fairly unclear at all quality settings when printed on a white background. We weren't overly impressed with printing quality. These speeds indicate that the multi-function has an average print speed and should meet the requirements of most families and home users. Text documents with graphical elements slowed slightly at normal quality, managing 4ppm. This speed slowed to 6.8ppm at normal quality an average speed in the mid-range multi-function market. Using the 'fast draft' quality setting, the C6280 managed to print normal text documents at 20 pages per minute, slightly faster than the business-focused Officejet J6480 All-in-One.
