Hello,
I have just had a bad experience with an ink jet all in one hp of a customer of mine (I get paid by hour for repairs):

- I go there to install the driver in a new windows 7 pc;
- driver is 300 MB (the version with scan support they need) so 15 minutes waiting for download (the customer is looking me doing nothing and get paid)
- the HP printer was wireless but the driver incredibly wants an usb cable for first installation!!!! It was out of question moving the printer
- next day I go there with 10 meters usb cable: the driver now says: I am sorry but it is already installed... are we joking???

So I need to suggest a new all in one, preferably laser this time, to my customer.

But all reviews in web are not useful to me: they barely scratch the surface of the printers reviewed.

An example: now the HP8600 receives a lot of positive rievews (faster than laser, low ink costs) but can I trust it anymore?


Can you suggest me a color allinone of epson/canon/(hp)/other brands? without hidden/drivers problems? Preferably with postscript/pcl6 support so I can use also with generic drivers or with Macintosh

Thank you very much in advance,

Mario

I've used newegg.com user reviews for years to get an inkling (pardon the
expression) of what others think of the items they've bought. Usually
finding a product that is popular with 4 or 5 stars has given me
satisfaction. Of course reading the reviews, especially the 1 and 2 star
reviews, gives me more insight to the negatives about the product.
