I just wanted to share with everyone that after reading everyone's comments about printers I tossed my old HP and bought an Epson XP-300 and I'm in love with it! The HP never did so much so well as this Epson does! Thanks to those who shared their thoughts about this printer!

I have never owned an HP product that was worth @*&%. I will never buy anything made by HP again. Just my little rant. Sorry, Mike

Be sure to go through the Add & Remove Programs to yank out all the HP BloatWare. Most of it is listed alphabetically starting with HP, but scroll down a little further and dump the "Shop for HP supplies".

HP = Highly Problematic

They used to make some damn fine test equipment.

I have the 605 as it does DVDs, the quality of the XPs is very good

Yes, having had different brands, the HP I had was the worse.

I just had trouble with my Epson with the colours and tried everything to sort it out to no avail!

After doing some research I bought a Canon mid range printer. Wow, what a difference in quality compared to what I've owned before. It's not just better print quality but the whole way the machine operates.

I did consider the top end printers but decided that I didn't do enough printing to warrant the initial expenditure and cost of replacements inks.

Very glad to know you're pleased.

I have the Canon is4000, years old now but the printer can not be beaten, I dread ever needing to replace it.

Now that you have an Epson, Try Cosco paper you will be a happy camper the extra in ink you spend you will save some in paper.
