>>We have an HP Laserjet 4 purchased about 2 years ago. A few days ago it started to show up "50 SERVICE" error. So went to service and now I have a fax stating repair would cost 551 $ + VAT (what) !!!! A new HP 6P is about the same price !!! Think your 2 years old car needs a piece replacement for the price of a new car !!

>A couple of yearts ago I took my HP Series II printer to a local repair show and had it completely rebuilt for around $200. I look at, actual pick up, the new HP's then my Series II and it reminds of a Sherman Tank versus a Volkswagen beetle. That series II is a work horse than never dies.
Yes Jim,
I use them too. But from today I'll never buy or advice HP. Sad this thing hit me badly. Thanks for sharing.
