Rana Dutt sent e-mail to me asking questions about the DeskJet.  My mail
bounced and I thought that the answer may be of general interest anyway.

You don't refill toner on DeskJets, you replace the print cartridge.  A
cartridge costs ~$20 and is good for 1 million draft or 0.5 million
letter quality characters.  This translates to about 800 or 400 pages.
In draft mode, this works out to 2.5 cents a page.

The DeskJet uses standard paper.  Photo-copier paper works especially
well.

All in all, the DeskJet is pretty nice if your wallet is too thin to get
the HP LaserJet.  Also, since most LaserJet drivers work for the
DeskJet, drivers are fairly available.  I've been using WordUp, 1st
Word, Degas Elite and Publishing Partner pretty successfully.

One problem I have had with the DeskJet is that graphics imbedded in
WordUp documents aren't getting printed.  I am using TurboJet for my
driver.  I have heard that DeskJets are unable to rotate graphics due to
memory constraints.  Could this be the problem?  

Is anyone else using WordUp/TurboJet/DeskJet?
