Customer Review: INK USAGE IS INSANE!
I've been using this printer for about 3 months and have gone through 3 ink cartridges. I don't print more than maybe 50-75 pages a month. At around $13 (at the cheapest) a cartridge this is insane. If I hadn't gotten the printer as a gift this would be a terrible investment. I could print for years (2500 pages) on a laser cartridge for $50. For the price, buy a laser printer and never look back! I'm warning you don't make the same mistake I did.
Customer Review: Great MFP with one major flaw
I've owned this printer for about a year and a half. It was a great performer for light to average home use but has one major flaw. The available ink cartridges only have 5ml of ink which barely last a month even with light use.
After going through my last two ink cartridges this fall, I decided it was a better investment to buy a new MFP. I paid $79 for a new Canon MP470 which included 16ml ink cartridges (and has high capacity cartridges available when it is time for a refill). It would have cost me almost $50 for two 5ml black and one 5ml color cartridge for the HP. For $30 more, I got the equivalent of 1 extra black cartridge, 2 extra color cartridges and a free printer to go with it.
I understand HPs motivation but 5ml cartridges is just an insult. If I was aware of this when I was buying the printer, I would not have done it. BEWARE!
