We purchased about 15 Dell 1700 and 1710 printers a few years ago, starting in 2005. They worked OK, while they worked, but one problem I've had is that once they are out of warranty they are hard to fix because I can't find parts. Out of the 15 we purchased, I've only got 10 still working, and 2 of those are because we were able to cannibalize parts from the other broken ones. Something as simple as the rollers in the back, just before the paper exits - I wanted to replace them on 2 machines and trying to get them from Dell was a joke - they sent the wrong parts twice, and I never did get them. At least with HP I can still get parts and repair them myself.

I've never looked back. And I too was someone who ONLY bought HP printers for years. Well... and Epson for dot matrix. (showing my age). The Epson dot matrix and HP LJ5 series and older will be there with the cockroaches and Twinkies - at least as long as the electricity works after armeggedon.... :-) On Wed, Aug 5, 2009 at 11:58 AM, Phil Brutsche <[email protected]> wrote: Dell sells rebranded Lexmarks.
