Although my printer is old, it continues to perform well.
However, the cost of the inker becomes more and more expensive making continued use prohibitive.
I'm disappointed that it appears that the increased, unreasonable cost by HP is an intentional ploy to encourage the consumer to buy a new printer.
It would seem to me that HP would want to maintain good will with the consumer rather than risking losing the customer.

The last cartridge that I purchased might have come from a bad lot. The cartridge was almost full with ink and the pages started to not print clearly. One page did not print with anything at all on the page. I removed the cartridge and plenty of ink was available. I tried it again and the copies are not as clear as they had been with other cartridges.
