This machine is an ink guzzler. I can't print out my term papers without having to go through at least two cartridges. Unless you only expect to use it for very light use (print out the occasional e-mail, directions), I'd say look for something else, unless you want to keep a ton of cartridges in stock all the time.

I had an epson sylus photo 825 printer and that was a ink guzzler it would finish the ink even if i didnt use it for the month "Really strange"; not really because companies do this so u spend money on their ink which cost 20-30 a pop for epson. So i decided to go with the HPf4180. I think im still in the same boat because it drinks ink but not as much as the epson. It has little brackets that tell you how much ink youve wasted whenever you print. This bracket goes down about 1/4 of a notch each time, and thats using the B&W with fast printing the cheapest effective way; also thats just priting 1 sheet!!!
I hope HP's "Bracket" is not an accurate count and still prints even when the notch reaches low, unlike the epson which WOULD NOT print once the bracket was at the low. Which was BS. Hopefully HP is different. On a scale of 1-10 its a 7 because of the price. Staples has it for 60.00 and it comes with both inks; Each ink cost about 20 bucks, works out.

Ink Guzzler - cartridge at 25% in 2days,

Bought this printer about two months back.
Installation took a long time. That is ok since it has a lot of features which take a while to install. BUT here is what happened.
Started installation after 10mins says "You need to be Administrator".
So ran the program again as "RUN AS Administrator". After about 10-15mins says "You need to be real adminsitrator".
Why could it not say that at the beginning and saved us a lot of time.
The main problem with this printer is that it runs out of ink really fast. Too fast. We are now on the 2nd cartridge and we do not print much.
Hope we can return in to the store. It has been used less than a dozen times. We only printed a few forms(B&W) and I dont want to spend $15 on another cartridge. Other than that the printer prints fine, great features and quality printing.
We had another HP deskjet before and only changed the ink cartridge once in about 2 years.
