Default HP 722c printer blurred and smeared since XP

Thanks a lot Cari. That's a big help. Now I know which printer NOT to get.

Take a look at this recent article published by the BBC...
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/3626373.stm

Ignore the basic prices ... unlesss you know your British Pound to

wherever
you are exchange rate..... but the ownership costs over the eighteen

months
probably give you a good clue as to what model NOT to get!

The best thing to do is to go to your local store... and get them to
demonstrate the output to you. Only your eyes can judge what looks

best...
! Obviously if you're going to be printing photos, go for one that is a
photo printer... remember you'll be using more ink but the better photo
printers use ink that lasts much longer! No point in printing out a
beautiful photo in good resolution if it's going to look terrible in a

year
or so!

Separate ink cartridges are a godsend (at least to me who does print out a
lot of photos). I'm always out of photo magenta first, then photo cyan.
Even in my older S800 which does not have the photo cartridges, it's

always
magenta first, then cyan. (Perhaps I don't take many photos that need
yellow!).... it's great to just have to buy a single cartridge instead of
throwing away all that cyan and yellow just because I need more magenta!

Got it!!!! LOL. I was thinking of HP because I have loved the 722c, but
Canon has the separate color cartridges. I'm thinking of an all in one.
Any
ideas on that?

Yes!

Ok, I'm listening!!! LOL. Should I look harder at the other printers
and
not
so much at Lexmark? I've never had a Lexmark, so don't know too much

about
them. I really appreciate the insight of you folks with more
experience.
