With HP deskjets (ink) the print-head are included in the cartridge. Pro is, that you don't have to clean them (in contrast to other manufactures.
You still have to clean them but don't have to junk the printer because a print-head doesn't clear.
Con is, that these carridges are offensive expensive.
Con is: All OEM cartirdges are expensive except Kodak but they lack good linux suport.
Also because the three colors are combined in a single sartridge. So just for low volume i presume.
Some are 3-color but usually just the very cheapest printers.
That's the reason that I too am looking at a brother single-purpose-laser printer HL4570 (about 370 Euro) Networking, duplex, separate toners...
I agree, would probably have Brother except I got a "Very Good Deal"(!tm) on my HP Color LaserJet 2840. Note: presented arguments specific to low to very low volume printing. -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA HOG # US1244711 http://wahoo.no-ip.org Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://linuxcounter.net -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
