I understand that the DeskJet uses water-soluble ink. Has anybody had
any problems with that aspect, i.e. smearing, etc.?

Has anybody had >any problems with that aspect, i.e. smearing, etc.? Not that I've noticed. If your hands are dry, you can rub the page as much as any other printed page without it smearing. It's likely to attract the dirt on your hand before actually smearing. If your hands are wet, or if the page gets wet, then, yes, it will smear sigificantly. I don't think it's really a problem. It's certainly no problem for normal handling, including photocopying, etc. -- Eric Kennedy ejkst@cisunx.UUCP

I have never had a problem with it though. The paper handler allows plenty of time for the ink to dry. The only time I've had the ink run is when I've spilled something on the paper, but the paper generally gets messed up too. DISCLAIMER: I don't work for the part of HP that build the DESKJET. I just use one. Dave S.

I am interested in people's experiences with the HP Deskjet. I am thinking of getting one to print out music scores. The Laserjet is a bit out of my price range, but both are 300 dpi I believe. Any info would be appreciated. Post or E-mail.
