review

Back when monochrome laser prices were well into four figures, a lot of people called the ink jet—then a fledgling technology—the poor man's laser. I haven't heard that description in a long time—not since ink jets shoved dot matrix printers into a nearly forgotten niche. But with ink jets like the HP Officejet Pro K5400dtn Color Printer ($249.99 direct), it may be time to take the phrase out of retirement.
