Review: Solid Printer. Not an Ink-Hog - Solid printer that doesn't run out of ink every two weeks. Color printing is nothing fancy, but if you do mostly black and white printing it works good and lasts long time. Two things: it's a little loud during printing if that is a problem for you. Also, DO NOT try to feed in extra paper when the printer is active. Wait for everything to stop before loading more paper. If you "confuse" it, you will experience a very painful reset process and waste a lot of paper. Other than that, it is very well behaved. I've used a couple of them for over 4 years and never had one jam. Best thing you can do is keep it stocked so it doesn't run out of paper and it will run efficiently and with a pretty long time between cartridge changes. Cheers,
Review: Hewlett Packard now on my permanent "do not buy" list - My experience with HP products has been pretty dismal. My hopes for better results with a fancier model were dashed when my HP 6122 stopped communicating with my Mac. The local computer repair shop charges $70 for a diagnostic look, applicable to the repair. Unfortunately for me, the defective USB connector in the printer cannot be obtained. I guess it was worth $70 to finally learn that HP printers are break-down, non-repairable crap. As I've had two previous HP printers to die on me, it's three strikes and you're out, Hewlett Packard. I will not be pouring any more money down the HP sinkhole.
