A:AnswerHP focuses on making sure that the ink hits the page and dries almost instantly so that you do not have to worry about smearing the ink. In most cases, you can even spill water on the page as soon as it leaves the printer without it smearing. Some of it will vary depending on the type of paper being used and HP has paper with ColorLok to make it even harder for the ink to smear. If you wanted to try and see that in person, you can ask for test print at most Best Buy stores.
A:AnswerThe printer will come with a set of setup cartridges. If you plan to print a lot you might want an extra set of ink. This model will use the HP 962 ink.
A:AnswerNo, it doesn't have an internal memory for anything other than fax numbers and a log of faxes sent and received. You can clear those from the fax menu on the printer.
A:AnswerThank you for your question, Rudy! HP Instant Ink is entirely optional, however you do receive 6 months free with this printer when you enroll in HP+, and you can cancel at any time.
