  • HP inkjets are horrendous. I absolutely refuse to buy them because they are absolute junk. They have always worked, and I could connect to them with no problems with Android atleast. Windows finally could connect once I had assigned it a permanent local IP through the router. Though Linux had problems…

    But the build quality of HP inkjets are absolute horrendous and I probably can only get 6 months out of them and probably spent more on ink cartridges in a year before the stupid printers suffer a complete hardware failure and need to be replaced.

    The HP mfp 183fw colour LaserJet printer however… It is my second forray into HP laserjets since my dad’s original black and white Hewlett Packard LaserJet beast from the early 90’s.

    But I feel like I got incredibly lucky after doing some research into it (plus only thing I could get locally at the time since I needed a new printer immediately.) It cost more than any of the inkjets I have owned in the past. The toner carts definitely cost more… But it is still going strong a year and a half after purchasing it and I have only had to replace the black toner cart only a week or two ago. Have not had to replace the colour toner carts yet. It also just works on Linux which I am happy about.

    Like I said, I may have just gotten incredibly lucky though, I mean getting a year and a half out of it is still more than I expected and the money I saved because toner lasts much longer than ink.

    When and if this printer gives up, I will probably get an Epson laserjet.






  • All I want from my printer/scanner is to press print, and have it not change its IP address so Windows can’t find it.

    Easy fix, go into your router and setup a local static IP for your printer. Sometimes called DHCP IP reservation.

    It should give a list all devices and their mac address on your network. Select your printer, then put in the current local IP the printer is using or a new local IP (setting a new local IP will require you to turn your printer off and back on after you save the changes to ensure the new local IP is handed out to the printer.)

    Save changes, and you should never have to worry about the printer changing local IP’s ever again.








  • I haven’t played with it. However, I can say it is based on Fedora which is a good distro and Glorious Egg roll himself, besides working at Red Hat, is the creator of the Glorious Egg Roll version of the Proton compatibility layer.

    Edit: stupid button, hit before I was finished. Besides the GE proton version, he does a lot of other enhancements to make Nobara more gamer friendly so it should be a relatively good distro to use because he knows the system better than most average Linux users and so provides the enhancements out of the box for gamers that want to game.

    If you know what you are doing, the enhancements can be added to Fedora easily. But if you just want to setup and play immediately, Nobara is the way to go.
