4 inches, turning your 10 by 8 print into a 9.4 by 7.6 inch one.

On a 10 by 8 print, this bottom border measures a significant. This means that there is always a white border around your prints, and this border is bigger at the bottom of the print. The printer does not support borderless printing, so there is always a white border around images, with the maximum print size for 4 by 6 paper being 3.74 by 5.33 inches and 8.55 by 9.3 inches for a 10 by 8. The Deskjet 1000 is not a fast printer: printing in the Best mode onto photo paper, we found that it took 58.4 seconds to produce a 4 by 6 print, and 3 minutes, 21 seconds to produce a 10 by 8. As part of the install process, you are also able to download an additional software package, available for both Mac and Windows users: HP Photo Creations. TA limited selection of software is supplied on the install CD for this printer. The software install CD contains drivers for both Windows and Mac users: the images below are from the Mac version. A PDF version of the user and reference guide are available here. We found both to be adequate: they cover the detail of installing and using the printer with a good level of detail. The process is described in a setup poster that is included with the printer, with more in-depth detail from the on-screen manual that is installed with the drivers and software. We found that the whole process took about 20 minutes from start to finish. The process involves unpacking the printer, installing the ink cartridges, installing the software and connecting the printer when prompted. The Deskjet 1000 is a simple printer to set up. Not included is a USB cable or paper: you have to supply your own. Higher capacity versions of both are available: the HP61XL black ink cartridge costs about $28 and can print about 480 pages, while the HP 61XL color ink cartridge costs about $30 and can manage about 330 pages. The HP 61 color cartridge costs about $21, and covers about 165 pages.

The HP type 61 black cartridge costs about $16 and, HP claims, will cover about 190 pages. The Deskjet 1000 uses two ink cartridges: one for black and one for color.
