Thanks! That is cheaper than I thought it would be. Great!

Okay! UPS status says the printer will be delivered today! That usually means about 5:00 p.m.

Good luck and let us know how well it works for you

[jon.oman]

I'll have to learn a whole bunch of stuff to use it correctly. I'm sure that I will have to figure out profiles, etc.

[JohnSR]

Know what you mean. The HP130 has a profile for just about every paper out there. Have found that the satin paper profile works well with a about all the papers.

Well, it is here! Man is it big! 27 inches long, 15 inches deep, and 10 inches high. That is without opening anything up. It is 43 pounds out of the box (55 pounds shipping weight).

According to the instructions, I can't load the ink for three hours, so I won't test it tonight. Since I have some errands to do first thing in the morning, the earliest I can test it will be about noon. I will be setting it up on my network, since it has an ethernet port. I have too many USB dongles on my computer anyway.

Fun!

What was the reason they give for the three hour wait?

[JohnSR]

Are you going to be able to get the ink locally or like HP because the printer fall into a different category, it has to be ordered from the company?

What was the reason they give for the three hour wait?

Temperature. The inks were at about 32 degrees F. when they came in. They were supposed to be warmed up to room temps before use. The instructions said to wait three hours.
