Very out-dated

Advantages: Price, size
Disadvantages: Everything else : Quality, reliabilty, speed, ease of use

Mmmmm Paper

Advantages: none
Disadvantages: eats paper

...Whatever you do do not buy a HP deskjet 400 printer unless you wish for the printer to eat your paper! Ever since we brought our printer about once every 2 weeks it chews the paper up and then prints computer language and you then have to turn the printer ...
