A simple printer
Having purchased a USB to LPT printer lead, I found the computer got the data from the little used HP Laserjet 4, but would not run it. Is it a power-to-port issue do you think?
Tonight, I've taken the sad offerings of Epson and Kodak times 2, ready for scrap. Always heads blocking up causing problems.
Last summer I went 'home' to England and took out an HP printer that Noah had on the ark. Of course, it worked. Never missed a beat all summer.
All I need is a simple printer. No scanner. Fair quality, but good value and never, ever needs the ink replaced. Okay, I'll buy some ink, but not often.
Which way do I turn? Kodak was a really tasteless joke. Their offer of compensation for the one that all the hype was about, was one that looked like it was made by some kid in China. When I protested, they stood firm, until I pointed out one could buy them new for $55 on Amazon. The original was 380 odd. They seemed as dumbfounded as I was angry.
Is there anyway I can find value these days?
