hey i'm justin you for cnet.com this is a first look at the HP photosmart 7520 e-all-in-one printer this machine combines a printer a scanner and a copier into a pretty low profile chassis design you also get the benefit of this 4.3 inch touchscreen on the front it may look like an iPhone screen but it does take a little bit of time to learn how to accurately scroll through the menus because the screen can be a little twitchy HP photosmart line is really targeted at the snapshot photographer and that's why you get an auto document feeder on top that's where scanning stacks of photos the paper tray on the bottom however can hold up to 125 sheets of regular eight and a half by 11 inch paper but there's also a separate 20 sheet photo paper tray on top of that one so you don't have to be constantly switching out media now if you don't have a wireless network set up in your workspace you can pretty much just forget about getting this printer because you really want to have that Wi-Fi connection setup to take advantage of all its cloud printing features Mac users are in luck as well because this printer is compatible with airprint for easy setup but of course HP does include an installation disk in the box so you can install it on PCs as well or you can use google cloud print on either operating system if you're using a Chrome browser when you talk about HP cloud printing you're really talking about two things eprint and the ePrint center so ePrint is a simple cloud printing technology that lets you send jobs from any connected device using a uniquely assigned email address that comes with each printer they ship out while the ePrint center is basically just a print centric App Store for the touch display that will give you apps for quick prints from things like Sudoku games weather news recipes coupons etc so once you have the printer hooked up to your wireless network it's really easy and convenient for scheduled prints in our speed test however the 75 10 performed slightly faster than the average multifunction device in its price category though it still couldn't nudge out the epson workforce 645 out of the fastest position regardless this printer isn't really meant for high-volume office printing anyway so you won't likely notice a difference if you're just printing a few photos or news articles at a time you can read all the details in my full review on cnet but that's going to do it for me I'm Justin you you just took a first look at the HP photosmart 7520 e-all-in-one thanks for watching
