Yes, HP is the solution for Inkjet, but when i see the cost of the
cartridge in Europe, it is really more expensive.. But each time you
change, each time you have a new printer.

I may try a sub printer... I 'm looking now for a small comparative
review.


You might take a look at the HP Photosmart 375 or 325 printers. They are
designed for the use model you describe, and they provide better fade
resistance than the dye sup printers - see:
http://www.wilhelm-research.com/4x6/...2004_12_07.pdf.

There are "Photo Value Packs" for this printer that bring the cost down to less
than $0.29 US per print with ink cartridges and photo paper included.

Regards,
Bob Headrick, not speaking for my employer HP

Since you work for HP and openly from the beginning advertise that
fact I would like to tell you why I did not buy a second HP printer
for photo use even though I like my HP990 a great deal.

You can pass this up to your superiors.

Other than the features of the Canon IP4000 are more compelling for me
(twin paper feeds, full duplexing, and individual carts that are
substantially cheaper) and the fact (referring to the 8,000 series)
that I do not need the LCD and printing without a computer at all, the
real back breaker was the fact that you have to play musical carts
with the lower model since only 2 can be installed at the same time
and even with the 8400 series you can only install 3 carts leaving the
4 to keep resinstalling depending what you are doing. Maybe the
refillers like to tinker like that but I certainly do not.

Also, notwithstanding the fact the HP frowns on aftermarket ink and
carts I am inviting your personal veiws on the subject.



TROLL WARNING! TROLL WARNING!

BOB, DO NOT RESPOND TO THE MEASETICK TROLL!!!!

And that pack costs $80. That's the only way HP can make it seem like
it's competetive with the Epson Picturemate.
