I have an HP printer 5510 ($99.99) and it uses up more ink that you can imagine. I have had mine less than one year and I have had to buy ink for it four times already (and that ink is darned expensive). I am heading over to Best Buy - they say there is a problem there with the ink disposing unit and they should be giving me a new printer altogether - if I can ever get over there - Freezing rain and snow today up to 6-8" in the city. Dandy!!!!! Also another thing - tip from the IT son - do not use Walgreen's or Office Max or any other refill place, for refills in your printer - it can ruin the printer. For what it's worth. Edie
