This is why I don't trust the hp.  their slogon is now HP-noway.

I encourage my kids and friends to look at other printer on the market for
this vary reason.  As for their pc's  I'll still build my own.

Brian Eickholt, brings forth a word of caution: "HP has recently been fixing
the lower-priced printers so their consumables don't last as long. The three
HP printers I know about are the 612C, 812C and the 940. All three of these
printers use a special black cartridge that looks like a normal cartridge,
but only holds 21ml of ink in comparison to 42ml of ink for the standard
cartridges. The printers are designed to only accept these special
cartridges and cannot use the standard cartridge. The kicker is that both
cartridges usually cost the same price at the store, so in the end, you pay
twice as much for the same amount of ink.
