printer2008-11-17
i never did purchase this item, it was actually mis represented as a printer but was actually the printer software.
Ok printer, mechanical problems though.2007-10-09
I have been using this printer long enough to get through about 2 new cartridge purchaes. The quality of the prints is fine, on good paper you get a really nice picture out of it. The problem is like others on the site, the cartridge holder slid all the way to the right and is now jammed. With a little bit of wiggling it came free, but it now gives constant carriage errors. And after multiple conversations with HP the only thing they have to offer is to bring it in for repair (about 80$) or buy a new printer..... THANKS HP!!!
pretty average2007-07-21
I've had the 3820 for about 1 1/2 yrs. Luckily I haven't had the problem most have had, but I'm not a heavy printer. I've replace the ink cartridges once (tried a refill kit once but threw it away). My main complaint are the cartridge prices. The print quality is average on plain HR paper. The printer is pretty noisy. One other thing is that HP stated on the support page that no new Vista driver will be made for the 3820. You have to either use the default Windows driver or some 970cs printer driver, neither with the same features or interface as the real driver. It's great for the kids to use and for documents, etc. I would not get it for photos or High res. I just bought a new Canon pixma mp180. it's much quieter and is also copier/scanner with lcd display and memory card reader /direct camera connection for $20 less than the 3820 costs. Keeping the 3820 for black and white and documents and such. I've never been a big HP fan and this was the first product I've owned. Probably not have another, sorry.
Worst electronic device I have ever purchased2007-05-30
I have never purchased an electronic device as awful as the HP 3820. I had a Canon that lasted for more than 5 years. Live and learn I guess.
HP 3820 Service Station Gear Problem2007-04-02
HP has had big problems with the HP3820. The Service Station Gears within the machine were not designed to withhold stress on the printer carriage. When the carriage is pushed - these gears easily break. HP does not sell these gears. I did find them on eBay. A search of "HP 3820 Service Station Gears" should get you there. Most of the problems described point towards these gears. Hope this helps.

Core 2 Duo Scaling
Laptop Scaling Intel's Core 2 Duo is easily the best mobile processor on the market today, boasting sky-high performance and low power consumption. But which CPU is for you: the super expensive T7600, the bargain-priced T5500, or something in between? This article will first take a look at the various versions of Core 2 Duo that Intel has to offer. We will compare Core 2 Duo clocked at four speed grades: 2.33GHz, 2.16GHz, 2GHz, and 1.83GHz in a variety of benchmarks and let you know how to get your best bang for the buck. Note: We will refer to a Core 2 Duo “T7000�multiple times in this article. We were unable to get a Merom sample with 2MB L2 cache, thus we lowered the clock speed of our 4MB L2 model to 1.83GHz to perform near that of the T5600 (1.83GHz, 2MB L2 cache), resulting in our unofficial “T7000�nomenclature. The Core 2 Duo Processor Intel has two lines of Core 2 Duo processors: notebook and desktop. Core 2 Duo for notebooks is codenamed Merom, while Core ...
Professional video camera
A Professional video camera (often called a Television camera even though the use has spread) is a high-end device for recording electronic moving images (as opposed to a movie camera, that records the images on film). Originally developed for use in television studios, they are now commonly used for corporate and educational videos, music videos, direct-to-video movies, etc. There are two types of professional video cameras: High end portable, recording cameras (essentially, high-end camcorders) used for ENG and EFP image acquisition, and studio cameras which lack the recording capability of a camcorder, and are often fixed on studio pedestals. Portable professional cameras are generally much larger than consumer cameras and are designed to be carried on the shoulder. Technology It is common for professional cameras to split the incoming light into the three primary colors that humans are able to see, feeding each color into a separate pickup tube (in older cameras) or charge ...
