If you realy in need of a inexpensive printer then you should read this review. As i am going to share my story with you, and by reading this review it is all up to you to make the choice that i am right or wrong.
This all happens when i recently need of a new printer. As i have a older computer which has windows 98 on it and now its time to upgrade it and equpped it with Windows Vista.
My old printer like other old accessories is not compatible with windows vista i search a lot on internet to download the printers windows Vista driver and i was successful in this search but the driver i got looked suspicious to me so i decided to not to use the driver and purchased a new printer. As it was an old saying "better safe than sorry".
I am an occasional printer user with basic printing needs i use my printer for photo ,recipe or simmilar work. So my inexpensive printer's search begins and lead to me to my local Walmart . As my budget is only under $40 my search ended on HP Deskjet D1520 which costs only $32.99.
When i brought it to my home and opened the box everything , as expected, was there i.e power cord,ink catridge intallation DVD detail instructions and ofcourse the printer also but to my surprise there was no USB cable but luckily i have a usb cable of my old printer, and so i pluged the printer and start set to install it.
