HP is the devil.
Running with the Devil.
Cue Eddie and the boys.
I run it with no color cartridge.
One B/W cart last me about 6 months or so.
I mostly print to pdf.

unless i remember incorrectly laser drums were $$$ as with toner. inkjets rival lasers color and speed yet their ink tank printers can last up to 2 years on new ink. just starting to look now so thanks for your input but i think ive already moved past laser printers.

Why do you need color?

There are no drums with laser just a cartridge - yes they are expensive, ( I only use black and white, but years ago when 'i used inkjet it was not much cheaper not sure why. I would rather pay a bit more and have the speed of laser but if you like inkjet then there are lots of reviews online, don't have to buy it from Amazon but a great place to research and read real people reviews.

My printing is 1 form page (1004 for a house), one graph paper page, and one map page per job.
So an ink cart lasts a long time. When they die, Target has a recycle bin.
The HP software complains about no color cart, but prints anyway.
If you install a color cart, but only print BW, the color cart gets used up anyway. Doh.
Which is why I no longer buy color carts.
To make a short story long.

1 reason. with epson at least as far as i know i was running low on black ink and kept pushing off buying new ink. well when it finally almost dies a screen came up and said you are about to be completely out of black but we can add some color ink to extend the life you have left. i thought that was a pretty cool deal but i also like to print on photo paper some times.

I have an HP Officejet Pro 8710 and it's been great (Print/Fax/Scan/Copy/Web options)
I had the previous version before and stayed with this brand b/c the previous was a work horse. This one has lived up to the same reputation. I print a lot (I'm old school)
It's wifi so no cables to my laptop and can even print from my iPhone if needed
Has option for Legal and Letter sized paper
