- So far I've heard of the new HP 550c and am wondering what this is
- about. Is it an InkJet? I'm assuming so, because it comes in either the
- DeskJet form or the DeskWrite form, I think. And I don't really know the
- difference.
- Also, what are used PaintJets going for, and what's the story on
- them.
-
- The 550C is a Inkjet and has a color (CMY) and black cartridge, so it works
- great for color or B/W. The 500C could only use one at a time, so black in
- color is either a little mudy, or you need to use color separations. Its
- price has now dropped to around $350.00 from $750.00 where the 550C is
- around. Both of these have 300DPI. I don't know the price of the PaintJet,
- but it only has 160DPI.
-
- I should have waited a few months and I could have bought the 550C for about
- the same price I paid for the 500C :(
