New HP Printer

oh wow, thank you for sharing that about Dell. I have had irritating experiences with their customer service lines too. I can't stand them, and that is why after my couple of times I just chose to stop calling them. I did not buy a printed but have had a Dell computer and after 5 years of use and being kicked around literally, its still running. It sounds like your new printer is a good choice. Do you mind sharing the model and cost?

I remember you telling me about the problems you had with the dell printer. I really think it was wrong and misleading of Dell. In any case, I do believe family has had an HP printer before, but the last printer we had was Canon and now we have a Kodak Printer. Kodak Printer's are supposed to be cheaper on ink, and the last time ink was purchased I believe it was cheaper. Hubs and I don't actually purchase the ink. I think that the trouble comes with bigger printers more so then with just a printer , scanner.

I've always been happy with my HP, but it is over 10 years old and ink (its an old - what would you call it? laser jet?) is $100, but it gets hundreds of pages out of it not a scanner tho

Well, our HP printer is over 5 years old. But the last few months it has stopped working..I don't know how long printers last, but I was upset because before a trip we recently took, I was going to print out puzzles for my son to do only to have it quit printing..:(

I love HP products! I have a laptop from them that fell off a table and still worked just fine, much to my amazement! And I am on my 2nd printer from them since the first one was so great. Had the first one for over 6 years and never an issue til we moved and it got broken, so had to get another. I think you will be very happy with your choice! Take care!!

I have the HP Deskjet F380 printer since 2006,I had no problems with it,but installing drivers can be so menacing!

In my vast office work I have used several different printers. To name a few HP, Compaq, Epson, Canon & Brother. By far the HP's stand out to be the best ones. The ink is not terribly expensive and they normally print the fastest and the prints are quality prints. I have an HP Copier, Printer, Scanner at home that I love! The next in line for me would be Epson because they are fast and produce a quality print. However, the Epson takes several different inks to create color copies and they are all fairly expensive.

with HP printer my aunt and my brother faced many problems..like the installing of usb drivers after 2nd or 3rd time..it was a big headache..some times it wont detect..some time it will detect but it wont print We had a hectic time with hp..but now i bought a HP printer which is cool and has scanner,printer and photocopy it is nice till now ..no problem i face with it.. They have good customer service

I've had one Lexmark printer and two HP printers. The cheap Lexmark printer was what I got at Wal-Mart. And, it ended up being not a very good printer. It actually didn't work for very long. I ended up getting a HP desktop 2660, and it was very reliable. It work pretty much anytime I needed it too. The only problem I had with it was with a sensor. When you would get ready to print, it would not grab the paper. So, I had to trick it a few times by taking the paper out and putting the paper back in. But, it would work once it realized what it had to do. I sold that printer to my neighbor and got another HP printer a HP Desktop F2480. It has a scanner along with the printing functions. So, far it is working fine and it is reliable.

I had 2 HP ink-jet printers, ink quite expensive. Tried compatible cartridges and 4 out of 5 had to go back as faulty. The biggest problem was that the sheets would not feed tyhrough straight, after few thousand sheets, mind. Dell cheapie came with new PC asa freebie. Total rubbish, gave it away. Now have 2 Canons very pleased with low ink cost and performance
