HP and Brother

by Seaurchin51 - 4/5/06 8:54 AM In reply to: What brand of printer do you own, and are you happy with it? by Marc Bennett Moderator

I've always used an Hp Deskjet, the latest one being the Deskjet 990. I really liked it because it printed doublesided. However I needed a printer that I could send faxes on so I got a Brother MFC-420CN and the Hp was given to my husband. The only drawback to the Brother is it doesn't print double-sided.

Lexmark Z42

by 20fj6002 - 4/5/06 9:25 AM In reply to: What brand of printer do you own, and are you happy with it? by Marc Bennett Moderator

I have a Lexmark Z42 at the moment, I say at the moment because the Lexmark printer refills are so expensive that I usally by a new printer with free refills. This works out the cheapest. A New printer with Black cartridge and Colour cartridges cost around £20 where refills are around £30. I do not do much printing so I refill the cartridges for a while but the printer heads are built into the cartridge so they are only worth refilling a few times.

Try Canon

by Dena Yuriga - 4/5/06 12:26 PM In reply to: Lexmark Z42 by 20fj6002

I have owned three HPs and 1 Epson printer. Both Laser and ink jet. I love my Canon S800. I have had it several years. I think 4 or 5 and it still prints beautifully. I print photos and anything that I want to read off of the net. It has 6 separate ink tanks that at the most cost 11.99 each. You only have to replace the color that runs out. I am ready to move up to the Pixma (Don't remember the #) because it has 8 separate tanks and I have seen the photos. They are fantastic. For best results though, I strongly suggest not to use the inks that are not authentic Canon inks and to use the heaviest name brand paper. I have tried many different kinds. Canon Pro HP Premium, Kodak Ultima, (all glossy) Epson and Zerox matte. Canon is by far my favorite, but the Kodak and Hp are good too. I found no papers that were not brand names that were as good as these

Printer problems

by mmcjprof - 4/5/06 10:32 AM In reply to: What brand of printer do you own, and are you happy with it? by Marc Bennett Moderator

I have two HP printers. The deskjet 712, on my son's computer works fine. The 3-in-1, however, died on me a couple of months ago. The other problem, of course, is that the cartridges are absurdly expensive. I could buy a new printer for the cost of three refills.

Brother HL1440

by RECless - 4/5/06 10:49 AM In reply to: What brand of printer do you own, and are you happy with it? by Marc Bennett Moderator

Had this for 3+ years. Peachy happy. Operation has been flawless - not even a paper jam. Cartridges a third less than an HP equivelant.

HP is good but there are many more good choices today other than HP for a considerably lower total cost of ownership.

Desktop laser print is no longer a new technology!

I Love My H-P

by usatran - 4/5/06 12:22 PM In reply to: What brand of printer do you own, and are you happy with it? by Marc Bennett Moderator

I've been using H-P deskjet printer for quite some time. They have always been good to me; from the 500 on up. These days, I'm using a 5550 on a G4 Powermac and a 6540 on the PC server in our home. Bullet proof, fast and I just love the paper-type sensor. But, most of all, the customer service and the website are excellent.
