[Digital BW] Re: Hewlett packard HP 130

2004-11-04 by eric perkins

I can second the previous message: results from my 130 are 
consistently excellent; it took only 2 minor tweaks in the driver    
(in magenta and in saturation)  to make my prints match the display.  
The prints are, to my eyes, somewhat more attractive than those from 
my 2200.  As previously pointed out, limited paper choice is a 
problem.  

A real problem on these lists is the eagerness of many to jump in 
with "authoritative" recommendations which turn out to have little or 
no basis in first-hand knowledge.  (If one had actually installed ink 
in a 130 he would know that it has more than 4 cartridges)
