Hewlett-Packard has long been a leader in the home printing business, building more and more features into its devices in order to increase their utility and appeal to consumers. Now HPis taking the home printer one step further by embedding the capability to tap into (and, of course, print) online content directly without needing to hook up a computer or other device to find the content and shuffle it along to the printer. Using HP apps—some built-in, some that customers will be able to find and download on their own—users will be able to tap into online content like photos, coupons, tickets, maps, news, and more directly from the Photosmart Premium’s 4.3-inch touchscreen panel.
