Need to replaec my 7-old printer

I almost exclusively use HP for printers for the following reasons

1. Good color(came from a cannon BJC 4200 and 2100 they both banded colors allot)
2. Lower ink price(more pages per dollar, not the price of the cartridge it self)
3. Memory card support of most all in ones.(Even without the PC in some cases)
4. For the price you get a decent All In One now.
5. FAST

All this said i do not do much printing at all so i can not make a definitive suggestion. For real, i print less then 20 pages a year most of the time.

Anyone else out there who does lots of printing.

to give you an idea, my printer sat soooo long that it filled with dust and will not take paper any more....

Almost anything should be better then a 7 year old printer what model is it anyway?

Hmmmmm i think that printer has near identical specs to the 920c. If thats so(it even takes the same ink cartridges) i would not even bother replacing it.

The reason behind this is the large cartridge capacity(25 black 19 color vs 10black and 8 color on most new printers) of that machine. New printers use much smaller print cartridges that need to be replaced more often so the cheaper price is not cheaper(almost the same) in a pages per dollar sort of way.

Thats a solid printer. that even after years of sitting still works like new(our 920c). and its still my first choice for photo printing(even tho i had a photo cartridge for another one).

But like i say....i have printed 1 photo this year....so yeah....not allot of printing...

Noe i am gonna go try to fix my old printer

are you looking more black and white? or a little of both(color for charts)? What about scanning?

In general printers are cheaper everyday... give me a sec to look at some...

A quick look at a local shop shows a C4280(Copy Scan Print Memory cards) at $100 CAD(no clue on the exchange rate)
One review - Complains about ink costs but 15-$30 seems cheap when we used to pay near 80 for a color and 50 for a black on the 920C. Check what the cartridges go for where you live. Also note you can safe allot of ink with the draft and fast normal modes with almost no difference in quality on text.

Also be warned most printers do not come with a USB cable....

Thats should work, but there is no memory card slots on that printer.

Make sure you get the high capacity cartridges.
HP 54 - Black
HP 57 - Color

21 and 22 are low capacity and just don't last long...

Remember to get the most out of the print cartridge check the settings and see what works best for you

I find fast draft is not bad at all...

buyer beware if you buy a HP printer. Besides selling proprietary cartridges, the cartridges have expiration dates and the printer WILL NOT PRINT after the cartridge expires, even though it has plenty of ink.

LOL


Maziar, If you don't print that much why won't get a $50 printer? saves you alot of cash and when your ready to replace them again new and better models will be out. Sometimes Bestbuy or Staples have those $50 printers.
