I work for Hewlett-Packard VCD, and although this is my own opinion and not
that of Hewlett-Packard, etc. The NEW ink, the stuff with the bright red star
on the box (to be sure, check the serial number on the side and see if it has
an asterisk before it) is a 100% improvement ont he ink. The NEW stuff will
not smear unless it is smeared when really wet, like printing a large black
box, and smearing it right afet printing.

If you allow the new ink to dry for about 2-3 seconds, it is very reliable. I
will say, that unless someone knows a real good secret, there is no way to
erase the ink once it is dry.  

Also, that was a tacky (no pun intended) thing for the sales person to tell
that other person.
