Hi,
Can anyone recommend a reliable all-in-one printer, (hopefully) one that does not 'read' cartridge serial numbers to enable the use of compatibles ? Thanks David |

Thanks Tony, sounds good, we usually go for HP, but were seduced by the 5 year warranty and 'XL' carts that came with the Lexmark. Most of the printing I've done seem to be test pages :-( David |

It has its faults and throws a wobbly with paper feeding sometimes, but very cheap on running and carts are a decent refill-able size!... Have you had any problems with the HP Control Centre software over the network? We got an HP 4500 series all in one networked colour inkjet (HP 4550 I think) to use as a low volume backup to a colour laser and it has been a total ball-ache. First, the software takes an absolute age to install, in these days, 30mins per machine (3 networked plus another roaming lappy on wifi) is totally unnecessary and out of order for a few drivers and a bit of support software. Second, I chose it so we could all use the scanner as a networked resource but the software/driver is so badly written that each machine grinds to a halt for 5s every minute while it polls (yes polls) the printer for some reason (100% cpu for the duration, known bug, no fix planned). To avoid this meant installing the printer on USB on one machine with only remote printing available to all machines and scanning only on one. Third, it is a budget model but everything is soooo slow, it seems to wait about, thinking for ages before it does anything. Press a scan button and you think it is broken as it takes so long to open the scanning popup on the connected computer. In summary, absolutely dire although compatible (print head included) carts are available at quite reasonable prices. To modify the old IBM adage I figured no-one would get fired for buying an HP printer but I have felt like binning it more than once and paying the loss myself. In my eyes they have slipped badly from the Laserjet 4 days and I wouldn't have one again. John's suggestion of the Samsung looks interesting but there doesn't appear to be any compatible toner available yet, hopefully it will be available soon. 45quid for a 1000 page colour cart means it's not quite in Dell 1320C territory yet (now discontinued and not an all in one I know). -- fred it's a ba-na-na . . . . |

John - have you run the scanning on the CLX 3305 from a linux client over the network? If that doesn't work, it then will have to have scan2smtp email which the CLX-6220FX *I think* does, but the 3305 does not mention in the web specs.

There is not a massive amount of sophistication available on its front panel - but looking at the (non network) version I have here it has Scan to PC, and Scan to USB (i.e. a flash drive plugged straight in to the printer) - its probably not got the UI sophistication on the printer to make tapping in email addresses easy. The windows software allows typical TWAIN style scanning and "pull" scans. I expect (but have not verified yet) that it can also push a scan to a CIFS/SMB network folder on the network version. (I have a feeling if I were buying one for me, I would go for a slightly posher model than the base one) -- Cheers, John. /================================================== ===============\ | Internode Ltd - http://www.internode.co.uk | |-----------------------------------------------------------------| | John Rumm - john(at)internode(dot)co(dot)uk | \================================================= ================/ |

The only time that should be a problem is if you are refilling ink cartridges yourself. If you buy a compatible cartridge that is listed by the vendor as suitable for your printer, there is no reason to expect it will not work. The things to watch for are that there is a delay between a new cartridge type coming out and the compatibles becoming available and that Epson fit their cartridges with chips with that have hidden features. The result of the second is that compatibles that have been working perfectly well on previous printers won't work on a newer model, even though it takes the same Epson ink cartridge. There is then a delay before a revised version of their chip that will work is available from the compatible manufacturers. Neither is a problem unless you want the very latest model of printer.

Thanks David I just recently bought a HP 1050 just basic but does the job for me. £35 at Tesco. One thing I always check for on google or Utube is if the cartridges can be refilled as I do my own. I probably get around 6 carts worth using tesco ink for around £6. You should also be able to google if you can get a work around for any chips. |

Thanks David 'Support' have asked for all the numbers on the printhead, and in which country it was made. It seems that there could be more than one fault with this part, and a new one might find itself winging its way to me soon. Finger crossed, or maybe not. I quite fancy a laser printer now. David WOW, Well done Lexmark. They are sending a new printhead and cartridges. So very very different to the other three companies I have asked questions of this week. David |
