Hmmm, im not gonna lie off the top of my head I dont know a whole lot about printers. But I do currently own a Deskjet F380 and im not much of a fan. It prints fairly slow, and it seems like Im out ink about every 30 days. On another note Epson is usually a pretty nice brand, my brother has one kinda like that one you showed and he really likes his.

Honestly, at this point, I'd go for the Epson.

I've had all kinds of HP printers... but lately those guys have been making a "money grab" for ink sales. HP ink costs/printhead costs make them very expensive to operate.

After nearly a decade with HP printers, I switched to Epsons (the Photo Stylus editions... with CD printing capability) and I haven't looked back to the HPs. Much cheaper ink that lasts longer from my experience.

Yeah my epson r280 is really good on black ink but the colors are not so good. The ink cartridges are cheaper for the hp's. Who really knows.
