I believe it maybe depends upon the cartridges that are installed. I have re- inked hp cartridges. I have ordered (at around 50 Euros a pair) original HP ink cartridges. Maybe there is the answer. I am a working girl with little time. Maybe someone could recomend a printer at around 60 Euros which just works. There are many printers here in Spain which do not come as a boxed set. The ink cartridges cost double the price of the printer.
As Johannes Meixner has said, cheap printers do not end being cheap, for many reasons. One is that ink cartridges tend to be costly and do not last. Some include a head assembly and are even more expensive. And, IMO, cheap printers do not work well with linux; I think they offload part of the work to the main cpu and thus need a special driver which they make only for windows. I had a canon bjc 4000 which I refilled myself, which was cheaper, but with the rahter big problem of having to clean the heads with alcohol after only abaout a week of not using it. When I had to print a CV on a hurry, the damned thing needed an hour or two of fidling and cleaning. So in the end I bought a color laser printer instead. I'm a happy user, my problems with the printer are over. At a price on euros, of course. The toner is expensive, but I believe the final price per page is better.
Maybe I should go off to the local supermarket (Carrefour), kill the thread and start again with a proper printer? ¿Que os parece?
Que si :-) Aunque no se que tendrán en el Carrefour :-p - -- Cheers, Carlos E. R. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.9 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAktzFj0ACgkQtTMYHG2NR9Ue8QCffxGqU6OE6EGXa/KLxXHGbY4R QKEAn1hHgTiPIx0MGqUoLliKBi4IQImR =qly+ -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
