Printer problem solution (kind of)

Rick,

I'm not sure how married you are to HP, but when looking for replacements for my Lexmark laser printers that chew a lot of power, I came across:

***  Epson WorkForce Pro WF-6590 Inkjet Multifunction Printer  ***

This is a monster inkjet printer with full PCL5 and PostScript 3 compatibility.

It is also a copier fax and scanner and has a gigabit ethernet port as well as USB and Wi-Fi.

Silent when not printing, huge ink cartridges available.

Cost me about $450 new, but you can get it online for around $250 shipped.

It needed a firmware update to fix a PostScript bug I found, but they have a Windows program that makes that easy when it occurs.

I've been an HP/Lexmark fan for years, but we don't even turn our Lexmark CX510 on anymore since we got this running.

There are other models in the WF-65** series that have PCL5 and PostScript, but this looked to me to be the best value.

It is much cheaper to operate than a laser.

Subject: Printer problem solution (kind of)

We have 9 HP printers used on our network.  Only 4 of them need filePro to print to them.  He switched the (2) HP402DN printers for HP1606DN printers which have always worked with fp.  Problem solved until we have to replace other old HP1606DN printers.
I would like to hear from the list which HP printers you use and like.  I prefer HP printers as they have always been good to me.
BTW I heard from a couple of users that they had the same problem with this model HP402DN and replaced them.
Thanks for all that responded.  Now maybe I can go back to being retired and work of my model trains.Rick Hane
