I have had a Kodak ESP 7250 All In One for about 9 months. The wireless and
printer work fine, in Windoze. They do not support Linux, strike one. While
printing about 500 pages I went through around 3 black ink cartridges,
strike two. The ink cartridges are only ink, the printing guns, nozzles,
etc. are on another part at about one-third the cost of a new printer,
strike three.
So before the printing nozzles go bad I'm looking at moving on to a better
printer. I don't plan on doing any high quality picture printing. Printing
good pictures on a home printer is not very economical.
I saw the 4500 at Sam's yesterday, about $80. I believe the wired version
was $20 cheaper but I have had great success with the wireless printer
mentioned above. I figure if Kodak can do wireless surly HP can. I have had
good look with several HP printers over the past, I guess 20 years. I like
the flexability of how wireless gives you options on where it can be located
easily.
Kodak does not support Linux, I do not support them. APC doesn't seem to
want to provide support for Linux with their small UPS systems. In the
future I'll try not to support them too.
