Yes, cheap printers have expensive ink (how else are the OEMs going to make money)? I recall reading a comparison study some time ago where different printers were compared to each other at various price points. Expensive ink and unnecessarily wasteful printing-head cleaning cycles were the two main causes for not jumping on the first cheap printer on sale. My experience with HP has also been trouble free. -- Regards, Mick
