I'm fed up with inkjets. Every inkjet – every one – I've had for the last 10 years has lasted no longer than 2 years. One day, they just start dropping lines or printing strangely, probably because of a clogged head or waste tube or something. I tried to fix the last one, but it didn't respond to treatment. So I've fixed the problem: I just won't get any more inkjets ever. It's not worth the hassle. Instead I have a HP Laserjet 2600n now. I'm looking forward to a future where my printer doesn't get uppity just because I haven't printed on it for a month.
