HP Apollo's must die

Written: Dec 14 '99
Pros:cheap
Cons:slow, unsturdy, jam frequent

HP tries to invade the insanely cheap printer market with an insanely crappy printer. The Apollo is quite possibly the worst constructed printer I have seen to date. I am forced to sell these things and sometimes have to beg customers to change their mind when considering choosing these things. They are slow. They want to look like an iMac yet not Mac compatible. They fall apart when looked at funny. They jam more than Jordan used to. To make things worse they come out with a Barbie version for $20 more. The only difference is pink instead of blue and stickers! WHY??? Canon has a decent low end printer. The choice I recommend is the Lexmark Z11 in the same price range. The return rate on the Apollo is astonishing as well, so I'm not the only one with this view. In summary, there are many other printers available in the same price range, stay away from this one.
