Comment on HP Deskjet 3550


Hi folks,

I am looking for an economical printer for printing documents. The printer shall work on RH9 and Debian 3.0 OSs. Some shops recommend HP Deskjet 3550 with USB plug.

Any folk has experience on the abovementioned printer. Any comment or another suggestion are welcome.

Thanks in advance.

Season's Greetings and B.R.

"I am looking for an economical printer for printing documents."

All of the printer manufacturers sell the printers cheaply and then charge too much for the ink refills. Check the prices on the ink refills for any printer that you are considering. Individual color refills are better than a single color refill because you do not run out of all three colors simultaneously. The printer with the cheapest ink refills is the cheapest printer, not the printer with the lowest price.

Usually HP printers are the most expensive on the market.
