I still have two HP 4ML printers. One for me and one for my daughter.
They were originally almost $1k. Slow as molasses by today's
standard, but excellent text print and very reliable.
It is getting difficult to get good rebuilt cartridges, and the new
ones, if you can find them, cost a fortune.
I would like to buy a faster color laser all-in-one, but so far, when
I read the specs, calculated the cost per page, and especially read
the complaints of those who own them, I've rejected all of them.
Apparently the old way of designing the printer has the cartridges in
a carousel that brings each cartridge in its turn up to the paper,
and the paper thus makes four passes through the machine! To me, that
seems like just asking for trouble.
The new way is to have all cartridges in position and the paper makes
one pass through the machine.
Does anyone know of a good printer that uses this design?
>Thanks! A few others have also recommended HP. Have you had yours long?
I ask, because the Epson works fine at first, but as it rounds the corner of
its first year, the problems begin.
HP made good printers, long, long ago, once upon a time, but are no
longer anything special. The last HP I bought had lots of paper jams. I
threw it out long before my HP 4MP wore out. Now those were printers!
