Well Colin I nearly put "Please dont mention the cartidge issue again", that got well chewed in a previous thread. I think you were just unlucky and bought a bad model. I always go for the high end price and never a combined thing of scanner and what have you. I dont print many pics as most of my stuff gets rendered into video so ink isnt really a problem ... it seems to last quite well and I have always used Epson cartriges and never even done a head clean. What I really appreciate though is having, a high quality photographic (6 ink) printer alongside the desk for radio work etc and experimental stuff in Corel Draw and Paint. It allows iterative tweaking that just couldnt be done going to Asda.
If I have to replace it it might be an Epson again and the P50 that has 124 reviews and 4 star rating (the lowest is 3 star) on Amazon so it cant be all bad.
I did look at the site Robert where you can get a software counter reset but it says for my model that option is not available. So it was very nice to find the '3 fingered salute' posted. Glad your 10 your old model is going strong.
