Includes free printer cartridges :rolleyes:
You know your stuff,I find it hard to connect printer sans cable too. :thumbs:

I... errr, don't quite get what you mean there. 1m USB cable is sold for around 10 dollars in DSE. Since older model is priced at $98 and does not include a USB cable, therefore I reckon it is wiser and better to get the newer model, which cost $110 because it comes with a USB cable.

Includes free half-of-the-normal-amount printer cartridges. :rolleyes:

Sorry, it wasn't specific to your situation. It was just a general comment that some pinters don't include a USB cable. That fine if the price reflects that and it states on the box that no cables are included, as I know of one person who was told by the shop that the printer inluded a USB cable and it didn't so she had to go straight back to the shop and get one.

The last HP printer I purchased was supplied with full cartridges, which surprised me, as they have an option of low-yeild or high-yeild cartridges when purchasing new ones.

According to the cartidge number type supplied it was the high yield ones, I fully expected the low yied ones. The consumables advertised with the printer only mentioned the low yield versions, to make it look as though it was cheap to run.

I also expected no USB cable and was surprised to discover both a USB 2.0 cable and an Ethernet cable were supplied, although no reference was made to these being included in the box.

So the "half-of-the-normal-amount" cartridge could be an off-the-shelf option in many cases. Of course they cost half as much.

And do cheer up Cicero, or we will see you starring in the TV series "grumpy old men". Just buy the ink and stop growling. It's only money. Just because you paid too much for your camera, please don't let it get you down for so long...

No doubt about you Godfather,you always see the best side.
I have bought 3 cartridges of colour for the princely sum of $74 and I still cant understand how they have been used up with only using grey scale.I shall keep a close eye on this new lot.
This new camera with all the 06 tech is so good,one has to feel sorry for those that have to put with the old tech,we feel for you. :rolleyes:
