I have never been a big fan of the "Swiss Army Knife" approach to things, but when the good people from Geeks.com offered us the HP Officejet 5610 All-in-One USB Printer, it just looked too good to pass up. The HP Officejet 5610 offers a full featured printer, scanner, copier, and fax machine all in one package.
HP (Hewlett Packard) is a huge name that just about anyone who has ever powered up a computer will likely recognize. They offer a wide variety of computer products from desktops and laptops, to a complete line of printers and network devices, along with the accompanying software and IT support.
My past experiences with devices that try to bundle multiple tasks in one package have generally been disappointing, as they don't tend to perform any individual function as well as a dedicated device could. Hopefully HP can break this preconception and prove an all in one solution is a viable option. With that said, let's take a closer look at the Officejet 5610 All-in-One USB Printer, starting with the published features as taken from the Geeks.com product page...
