Well, I've had experience with both Canon's and HP's printers here at
work. So far the only real problems we've had with our BJ200 and BJ200E
is sometimes the paper doesn't feed right or the printing gets confused
on the way there and garbage characters print out instead. This isn't a
constant problem so it is just dealt with as it comes along. Usually
just exiting the program and/or windows fixes the printing problem.

As far as Hewlett Packard goes...I have only this to say. You get what
you pay for. Everytime I've had a problem and called their tech support
they have answered my questions thoroughly. They walk you through each
step even if you've done it before, just to make sure you did it right.
(Yes this can be a little disconcerting, but it is good policy in my
book) Then if they can't do anything with it and have consulted with
their supervisors and whatnot, they tell you to just box it up and send
it to them and they'll pay postage for it. Since they only have the one
repair center in the US, it does take a little while to get back. Other
than that, everything has been just peachy since we got back our HP550C
and our FAX310 from repair. The Fax was just toasted by an electrical
surge and unfortunately it is an older model so it had a flat fee of
$300 to repair, but considering it was a pretty hefty priced item anyway
and the cheapest plain paper fax I've seen is like $500 it was worth it.

I really like HP's products and think you can depend on them. It's
usually not the hardware that gives you the problem it is usually
software or the paper. (don't mix those paper types now i.e. letterhead,
plain paper) If you're looking for a decent inkjet and don't need the
color, go for the new and improved 540 or 320? something like those.
They really are good printers and we have two of the 550C's here and an
old deskjet that's still in great shape.

Good luck and don't forget to send me a picture of the flowerpot when
you get around to it...hehehe
