OT HP printer help ? OT
I just got a new black (61XL) cartridge for my HP 3510 all-in-one , after
an hour on the line with HP support it still pops an "incompatible cartridge" message and locks up ... anybody know a workaround for this ? Probably a similar issue to using refilled cartridges , and a similar solution . I'm still on the line with HP on hold , we'll see what they offer to do - I got stuff that needs printin' ! Just got off the line , they're sending me a new cartridge . But I still want to see if there's a hack or workaround ... At 32 bucks a pop I'd like to maybe try refilling the black . Had less-than-stellar luck refilling color ... OK , OK , it was a total flop . -- Snag |

I think my laser printer is a Brother - too bad it's still in Memphis . Cartridges cost , but they last like forever - but it only prints black . I print photos often enough to need a color printer ... this situation ends up with HP sending me a new one for all the time and trouble , plus Walmart (the wife works in that department at our local WM) is going to swap this one . But the next printer I buy won't be an HP ... because as you say , they ain't the same as they useta be . -- Snag |

I had a Canon that was bulk feed, it was nice going a couple years without any issues. -- Steve W. |

If you are going through 3 HP ctgs per year, you can get the suggested printer and the pack of aftermarket color/black ctgs for less than the HP ctgs alone cost. Another area where American industry shot themselves in the a**. Consumer inkjet printers were largely a HP development.... http://tinyurl.com/cydtv49 -- Unka' George "Gold is the money of kings, silver is the money of gentlemen, barter is the money of peasants, but debt is the money of slaves" -Norm Franz, "Money and Wealth in the New Millenium" |

Make sure the tape is off the front face of the cartridge so the
contacts and printing holes are exposed. Just an idea - might be dirty or taped. Go into the correct socket ? Hope HP got that one figured already.

I don't use HP but on some of the Canon printers I've had there was a specific series of buttons, and hold times, to press to reset the ink reservoirs. A HP might be similar -- Cheers, John B. |

Buy low priced HP and Compaq product and you get crap. If you buy their premium product, you pay big money and get half decent product. Their premium products can often be purchased used/reconditioned for a decent price - still more than most "cheap" equipment - and it will outlast and outperform the low end new stuff. Brother does build some decent stuff, and the price is pretty good. Did you know Brother invented the dot matrix printer? An offshoot of their embroidery machine business. |

... ... Brother does build some decent stuff, and the price is pretty good. Did you know Brother invented the dot matrix printer? An offshoot of their embroidery machine business. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centronics "Howard developed a personal relationship with his neighbor, Max Hugel, the founder and president of Brother International, the United States arm of Brother Industries, Ltd., a manufacturer of sewing machines and typewriters. A business relationship developed when Centronics needed reliable manufacturing of the printer mechanisms-a relationship that would help propel Brother into the printer industry." In the mid 80's I helped develop a color ink jet printer designed by the former Centronics engineers. They contracted Juki to build it in Japan since they said the growing regulatory and union burden had made manufacturing impractical in the US. I dampened Japanese bragging that Nihongo is the only language with a word for 10,000 (ichiman). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myriad -jsw |

It's also used generically for any large number like we use "thousand" or "million". Since that's the mother language for most of the other languages in the region the quaint local dialects like Japanese and Korean have variations on it. Indians have words for 100,000 (lakh) and for 10,000,000 (crore)- you'll see them fairly frequently even in Indian English. Best regards, Spehro Pefhany -- "it's the network..."

The point was to 'prove' that English was less sophisticated because it lacked such a word. A high-ranking Mitsubishi engineer repeated it to me so I showed him 'myriad' in his own dictionary, in private to spare him embarrassment, and never heard or read the claim again. I acted the humble electronic lab tech until someone underestimated and tried to snow me with their intellectual superiority. Then they received an unexpected lesson. In R&D one needs to be able to filter the slick pretenders from the genuine talent. -jsw |
