[comp.sys.mac.hardware] Deskwriter NEW INK

HI NETTERS!

I have owned my HP Deskwriter for nearly a year now and have been very happy
with its printout and overall performance.  I have yet to put in a new ink
cartridge (which is water resistant..waiting in my drawer till the current one
runs dry).  A colleague of mine informed me that the new ink tends to have
problems on some papers (in terms of quality of type) and does even better on
others.  Well, I personally have been using Xerox 4204 with good results.

Will this change when I go with the new cartridge?

BTW, How good is the new ink?  Is it water-proof, smudge-proof, highlightable?

Comments and experiences would be greatly appreciated.

Please email me and I'll summarize if there is interest.

Thanks in advance.
