    Dear friends, sorry for the long delay, but I haven't made a decision yet. I am torn between your hints and a printer I could get for nothing (HSBC Rewards). I will tell you about the outcome!

    Off-topic: yes, I am loyal to HP even before they produced printers and x86 computers, even before my HP34 calculator. The very desktop I am writing this with is a heavy HP-Compaq D530, working since 2006, my wife had an identical one until a lightning stroke killed it. But through your opinions...

    Opinions on HP 2135

    Redbrickman, The Hat: the Canon Maxify MB5150 seems to be a heavy duty machine, for office use, and prices I found abroad (it doesn't exist here) are more than twice the local price for a HP or Epson.

    The Hat, Redbrickman, Flyboy, many thanks for your points of view! My very 1st printer was a Canon 1000, worked good but that *particular* model accepted one black OR one colour cartridge and simulated black by mixing CMY. When the cartridges wore out I purchased a HP4180, keeps working like...

    hp deskjet 3050 j610 'incompatible tri color cartridge'?

    hp deskjet 3050 j610 'incompatible tri color cartridge'?

    As the Black 122 did not last enough after refills, I installed a continuous system myself. - Tired of not being able to avoid the 'carriage jam' I had it reinstalled where I bought it, with new cartridges. - Printed Ok 6 sheets, turned it off, turned it on 2 days after and now always shows...
