Hmm ... looking at the 5530 here on my desk, I can confirm that it definitely has a USB port.

 

The prices you mention seem to come from currys.co.uk, where the description of the 5532 confirms what was said earlier:

"This Printer is our exclusive version of the HP Envy 5530, and comes with an extra set of HP 301 ink in the box."

 

PS I would take the "previous price" of £109 with a pinch of salt, as the price I paid in September 2014 was £69.

Oh good, I was beginning to feel a little cheated. Yeah I think it's like furniture shops, sold at "full price" for one week of the year. Some poor sod must buy them at that price. Possibly me.

Useful information, as I have just moved from Windows to Mac.

I also wondered about this. Other answers about extra ink may well be true but here is something tangible.

 

Comparing the 5530 specification:

and the 5532 specification:

the only major difference spotted, in a non-forensic "side-by-side", is in the copier specification. The 5532 has a maximum copies of 50 while the 5530 has 20.

 

Hope this helps.

 

PS. The 5532 page has extra information about print speeds.
