Alright guys, ever since i upgrade to 10.2.2. My hp printer has been sitting there collecting dust. I have no idea when the new driver is coming out but I need to use my printer FAST!!(for school projects)
I've told that EPSON C82 is pretty good. and also there is a guy in my class use cannon and it prints bleeds. I just want to know what's ur opinion on the INJET printer. I do not want to own another photo printer. I have photosmart 1115 <--crap!

thx!

Hi!

I just finished reading another thread here in the MacNN forums that discussed problems with HP's drivers and 10.2.2. That's really a shame for HP and its customers.

I own an Epson Stylus 740C and it has had no software or hardware problems in the years (and MacOS's) I've owned it. If and when I upgrade, it will be to another Epson ink jet or a laser printer. So far, though, the 740C has had great B&W print quality and good color photo prints

I have also heard great things about the C82 and believe it would make a great buy. The older C80 and Photo 820 are also excellent printers that can be had for $109 and $79 refurbished (free shipping, I believe) from Epson's online store:

I'm not entirely sure, but I believe Apple already provides bundled support for many of Epson's printers (check if the C82 is one of them). With 10.2, I even regained control of my printer's original maintenance features (cleaning heads, checking levels, etc). Good luck looking for that replacement!
