- I'm in the market for a home-printer at the moment. I want good to laserlike
- quality, and maybe color. I don't need postscript as long as I can use
- all my Windows TT-Fonts etc. There are 4 models right now which look
- interesting. But before buying I'd like to know the experience you people
- on the net have with these. The 4 models are:
-
- - HP Postable Deskjet
- - Canon BJ-200
- - EPSON LQ-100
- - Citizen GX-240 (Color)
-
- Here are the things I'd like to know about:
-
- - Print quality: Some older Deskjets I've seen didn't really
- align the printouts, so that you had a white line
- between two lines, especially in graphics. Does this
- happen?
-
- - Speed
-
- - Cartridge cost / refillable ?
- I know I can make my own refill for HP Cartridges. Does
- this also work for Canon? What ink to use?
-
- - Drivers
- Does a Windows-Driver exist?
-
- - Paper handling:
- Problems with envelopes, transparencies etc?
-
- I'd much appreciate if you could help me here. If there are enough
- and interesting answers, I'll summarize...
-
- Thx alot
-
- Have fun
-
- Happy New Year
