HP announced plans for more than 100 new printers, cameras and related supplies during its 2006 Printing and Imaging Conference. Here is the $249 (£135) PhotoSmart A716 Compact Photo Printer, which features a 64mm (2.5-inch) LCD screen to make sure you've selected the right picture to print.
Photographers who don't need a compact model like the A716 might opt for the $149 (£79) Photosmart D7160 Photo Printer. It will fit on top of a shelf or under a desk and print photos as large as 216 by 610mm.
Before you print, of course, you need to capture the image. The new Photosmart M627 camera can take 7-megapixel pictures in a compact package. It weighs just 120 grams without a battery.
The most powerful -- and most expensive -- camera in HP's new lineup is the Photosmart R967. Photographers can take 10-megapixel images and erase worries of blur with a built-in image stabliser. The camera costs $449 (£239), and it will be available in the US in September.
HP also announced plans to lower prices on its Halo Collaboration Studio, which is designed to let teams interact through a sophisticated video conferencing system that mimics a global board room table. HP has signed up global enterprises such as GE Financial and AIG for the studio, which now starts at a low, low $425,000 (£226,000) for installation and a monthly $18,000 (£10,000) fee for telecom and networking costs.
Despite the price cut, Halo still probably isn't the best way to call Gran.
