Awesome features, quality let-down.

I purchased the D7460 as a replacement for my aging Photosmart 8450, thinking that I would be buying a printer that would be comarable in quality to the 8450. It's close, there are some very disappointing differences.

First off, I had to adjust the color balance because my pictures were coming out yellow - or rather, skintones were coming out looking yellow, and I can't have my 3 month old baby looking jaundiced!. Additionally, this photo printer has some trouble with graininess - I tried many things to make this go away - several different resolution settings and such - but always the same result. It may not be that bad, but compared to the 8450 it is disappointing. I should point out that I print on the HP Premium and Premium Plus papers only.

So, as it is, I am thinking this one is going back. And that's frustrating because I can't find another printer that has everything I want in a printer like this one, but at the end of the day it's quality that rules and this one just doesn't cut it. Is there any chance this could be fixed with drivers or something, or is it an inherent problem with the printer? Anyone know where I could pick up a new 8450? HP, any chance you would release them again?

Touchscreen, Ethernet, 802.11G...

There is one word for this printer...Connected! It includes Ethernet & 802.11G and it works! Setup was a breeze. It immediately found my domain, and identified the security protocol. All I had to do was enter the key via the touch screen keypad. It has six separate ink colors and it is blistering fast for an inkjet. After installing the ink, it initializes and aligns itself. While highest DPI is slow, quality is stunning.
