Hewlett Packard is not just one of the best products, it is the best. My husband & I bought our first printer seven years ago, it wasn’t a HP. We didn’t do any comparing, & knew very little about them. Then a few months after our purchase our printer stopped working. We returned it to the place of purchase with receipt in hand, but we were just stuck with a piece of junk that leaked ink. My husband asked several of his friends if they knew much about a good printer. Several of them quoted HP. We researched it on the PC, & did a lot of comparing. With much concideration we purchased one. It is the best decision we have made in computer accessories, or I should say necessities. Our printer is still working as great as it did the day we bought it. We have used it on a regular basis. We have recommended it to all of our friends. No printer comes close in the quality of the HP.
