Shifty retailers that they are, they'd already made sure my desk was littered with a discount card for an additional $10 off. Plus they're going to send me a $30 gift card. In my simple, easily rationalized world, that's $60 OFF! Or $189, if my old math doesn't fail me. Helpless, I was. And right, you were. Excellent b&w prints. This printer's b&w output, alone, could be enough to make me starting liking HP, again, after perpetrating the LaserJet 3100 on the world. As was also mentioned, it is an ink hog. Is there a source for refills, especially of the HP100 Gray cartridge? -Chris Lawson
