Oh, sorry, I did not get that. I thought *you" were installing it, which seemed weird to me, as I did not see any actual reason fro you to do that.

Just to add a side note to this: I've disliked and staid away from InkJets for 15 years, or possibly more. And, I've come to dislike recent year's low end laser HP, just like you.

But I decided to give a try to a OfficeJet HP multifunction printer, considering also it's relatively low price (and low ink cartridges price).
It's been working at home for 2 months now, flawlessly. It mostly scans documents and prints few pages a week. It comes with a touchscreen and a fast and clear UI, so, so far I am happy. I am still a bit suspicious and I'd not be that surprised if it failed on us sooner than we hope for, but so far so good, and we've spend less than for a laser, color multi-function printer.

Of course, not good for any photo printing, but quite good quality for office-type work. So far, I should add, since InkJet quality is, in my experience, quite inconsistent over time.
