Advantages: ONLY IF YOU ARE A PLANET THRASHING HP STOCK HOLDER

Disadvantages: WASTES CUSTOMERS TIME AND MONEY.

THE HP 8250 IS YET ANOTHER HEAP OF JUNK FROM THIS MANUFACTURER. AFTER JUST THREE OR FOUR MONTHS NON USE, THE PRINTER IS PROGRAMMED TO "TIME EXPIRE" THE INK CARTRIDGES, EVEN THOUGH THEY ARE FULL. THIS IS DECEIPTFUL AND DISHONEST, AS NO MENTION OF SHELF LIFE IS MENTIONED ON THE REFILLS, OR WHEN PURCHASING THE ORIGINAL PRODUCT. I AM UNEMPLOYED, AND HAVE JUST WASTED £35+ ON REFILLS (A BIRTHDAY PRESSY FOR MY WIFE), ONLY TO FIND NOW THE PAPER WILL NOT FEED. THE FEED FAULT MUST BE HP SHODDY WORKMANSHIP, AS IT IS MENTIONED ON OTHER WEBSITES CARRYING REVIEWS FOR THIS PRODUCT. I THINK HEWLETT PACKARD ARE AN UNWORTHY COMPANY, HAWKING PRODUCT NOT FIT FOR USE, IN ORDER TO RIP CUSTOMERS OFF ON EXPENSIVE INKS. THROW AWAY FULL CARTIDGES. GO ON HP, THRASH THE PLANET! AVOID THE HP 8250, AND AVOID HEWLETT PACKARD, UNLESS YOU LIKE SUPPORTING PEOPLE WHO WOULD GLADLY SELL YOU SOMETHING OF UNMERCHANTABLE QUALITY. I AM GOING TO TAKE THIS UP WITH TRADING STANDARDS. THE WHOLE THING STINKS BIG TIME.

Summary: I WILL NEVER BUY HP AGAIN. I WON'T SUPPORT THIS TYPE OF TRADING
