[dba-Tech] HP 3820

http://www.fixyourownprinter.com/printer/11/10507.html

Let it go. You are not alone. Evidently that is not one of HP's better 
devices - perhaps it's a case of getting what you paid for?  A set of 
cartridges for my HP722 cost about $50 - but they last me almost a year and 
that printer continues to work beautifully.
