I recently purchased an HP OfficeJet d145 all-in-one fax/scanner/printer/copier, and it's excellent. It's got a flat-glass scanner plus a sheet feeder, so it does both copying and faxing very well. Print quality is great too.

But this unit has separate printheads from ink cartridges, and it turns out that the full refill kit is six items retailing for more than $200. Each of cyan/magenta/yellow/black printheads are separate part numbers, and the color ink cartridge is separate from black. I'm not sure why they did this, but I suspect that the printheads can be of higher quality (because they last longer) than the ones embedded the ink cartridges. I can't figure out why they don't have a "printhead kit" with all four.

That the supplies are more than half the cost of the printer (the same kit goes in the lower-end units as well) suggest that HP's doing really well. It might be seen as a "ripoff", but more likely is that the printer costs much less than the unit itself would cost without the consumables being such a profit center.

But this is a great unit - I'd totally buy it again.
