Is (small) evil in the service of good still evil?
You're better off just getting a Brother all-in-one. Those things are tanks and Brother, for some reason, seems to have executive leaders with ethics. Their scanning software is also the only one that works well.
I really with that the public (and hence, retailers) would stop hawking cheap HP nonsense. It would be like if AT&T resurrected the Bell Labs name for a software sweatshop in Bangalore.

- kalleboo 3y agoUnfortunately that's just a reality with inkjets, if not then the heads would clog and it becomes a paperweight. Anyone who doesn't print often really should buy a laser jet. If you don't print often and you print photos, just order it from a photo printing service.
- Double_a_92 3y agoIs there a reason why it must do that for like 2 minutes, while making horrible loud noises? Why can't it just fake-print some small image?
- londons_explore 3y agoTheres no theoretical reason an inkjet must dry out. You could totally imagine a design where a special 'storage cup' is automatically clamped over the nozzles, sealing any airflow from getting to them so they never dry out.
- kalleboo 3y agoThe nozzles are microscopic. Remember these things are 1200dpi. Any "storage cup" that is big enough that it wouldn't instantly be clogged with old ink would also still have lots of air in it.
- javajosh 3y agoMine doesn't do that. I have a laserjet.
