NEC Superscript 650C

Mike,

I recently purchased a NEC SuperScript 750C brand new with rebates; it ended up
costing me 134.00 from BigCityExpress (#). It was
time to change my warn out HP 682C, as the cost to repair the feeder here was
$100 & $25.00 to talk to a HP csr (customer service rep.).

Enough of my own saga. Anyway, let me say this even though mine is not the exact
same model as yours: the 750 seems faster than the HP and I like its software
much better. However, the picture clarity is not nearly of the same quality as
the HP and sometimes the colors don't equal those on screen. All this aside, I
am a grad student and usually just need to print black text only (give or take a
few PowerPoint presentations).

The problem I find with the NEC is that the cartridges are so small that they run
out in no time flat compared to that of the HPs. Although I don't count pages, I
know I could print black ink text 'til my heart was content for six months with
the HP and with the NEC less than a month. Another problem is, you don't know
when you are running out of ink with the NEC...all of a sudden a error message
appears, "Monochrome cartridge out of ink, replace and hit OK", and you can't
print anything (I mean anything) color or black & white until you do so. Where
with the HP, l would at least know the text was fading and if worse came to worse
I could print in some dark blue color to get by. Go figure, did I really save
anything.

Try ZDNET, #. As far as I know and I have read in various magazines,
Nec printers are rated among the best.
