HP Printer stops working after 17 months, any comeback?

Hi, many thanks for all your replies.

sax: yes that was inc VAT

wealdrom: I see what your saying and yes have thought about that, there's a few used models on ebay so I could still use my ink.

I've have checked my invoice and realised I purchased the printer via amazon market place - would that mean my gripe is now with them?

I hate HP printers - had a few and even a simple paper jam can end up writing them off ... last one managed to delete all my photos and music files on removal of its cruddy software. Threw the bloody thing across the garden as I remember.

Haha, I'm not at that stage and it's too bloody heavy to throw anywhere! I have spoken at length with the printer maintenance firm where I took mine and they said modern printers esp hp are just not built that well, constantly breaking down.

He said he's got loads (and I did see a hooooge warehouse full of them) of older hp printers that work all the time and these are 10+ years old. He also said laserjet over inkjet every time.

Oh well.
