Of course, since it’s a UK purchased printer and I’m now living in the US, HP support “cannot help”. Trying to clean it out just gets ink all over the desk and some important papers. Sure enough the entire inside is awash with a substance more costly than liquid gold … plus it’s now all over my shirt and trousers. This turns out mostly to mean my ink cartridges are leaking. Three months after replacement, the whole thing died with a call HP technicians error. Purchasing new ones (it’s colour so I need four) turned out to be an arm and a leg (or 2x what the printer cost to buy in the first place). ![]() Unfortunately, this is an inkjet printer and about three months ago the initial cartridges (which are deliberately lightly loaded) ran out of ink. ![]() I thought I solved it three years ago by getting a nice network printer (HP OfficeJet Pro 8600) which spoke postscript and could scan to folder (provided you have samba installed). ![]() Printing and scanning has always been the bane of Linux.
