Office Depot has the Deskjet 5440 on sale for $30. This is a regular sale so there is no mail-in rebates. They have had it as this price for a couple of days, so they might be running out. Currently their stock indicates “low availability.” If you just order the 5440, you will have to pay shipping because you need to get up to $50 for free shipping. You can put in your zip code to see if they have this printer at your local store, but it’s likely that you’ll have to order it online to get the deal.

The Deskjet 5440 is a “photo printer”, but it is no more of a photo printer than any other standard inkjet. You should not go in thinking that this printer will give you good photos, because it won’t. If you use the right photo paper, the quality probably won’t be all that different from mid-level HP photo printers, but the speed will definitely be a lot slower.

HP rates the Deskjet 5440 at 22 ppm for black and 21 for color, so it’s a pretty fast printer. It’s got a resolution of 4800 x 1200 and it can supposedly print a 4 x 6 pictures in 27 seconds. Supposedly you can use this printer to print up to 8.5 x 24″ prints, which rather unique for a standard deskjet.

This is the second time in a month that Office Depot has had this extremely low price, so it’s safe to say that they are trying to get rid of their inventory and this printer is being phased out. So, you’d better hop on this bargain now or suffer the grave consequences. Oh ya….if you need HP Deskjet 5440 ink cartridges, you can go to our site, or if you own this printer already you can leave a comment.
