    Computer printer, who's the best?

    Ok, I need a new printer. I'm looking at the HP m2727, because I own one and its great. But after a recent purchase from HP, I cringe when I think of HP support. Its poor at best. Does anyone have any opinions of other printer companies support out there?

      Canon

      We have also had exceptional luck with canon ink jet printers. The only issue lately is thier ink jets now have a computer chip in them so you have to buy thiers. There is a way around it, I just found it is not worth it as the originals do not cost much.

        HP or Fuji for me.

        I work as an IT Consultant and have no issues dealing with HP support.. I am a HP reseller and Site, I normally just demand replacement parts etc and get them with few questions asked. May not be the same experience for normal end users.

        If I wanted extra work I probably would sell brands like Lexmark, and Oki as they seem to break a lot, quite often I will install an HP printer and thats the last I hear of it because generally "they just work"

        There are different departments depending on the type of hardware, what was the product that you recently had a bad customer service experience from HP ?

        What are you using the printer for Steven? I might be able to suggest a few to look at.

              I have the same printer and love it. Had a HP and currently use HP laptop, but as for printers I love the Canon. One thing I do hate about HP is all of their software. It seams that HP software is always wanting to connect to the internet and update.
