I recently handled the purchase of 30 ThinkJets
for my Division's use with HP 2392a CRTs.  The printer
is really compact, prints clearly, but the micro-holes in
the inkjet cartridge have a tendency to dry up now and then,
producing poor print quality.  A wipe with a damp cloth fixes this.
(We had two exceptions -- we had to replace the ink cartridge for
$8 each.)  You can turn on boldface with a control sequence to
greatly improve the quality of print.  Normal mode is also
very clear.

You'll need to stock special ThinkJet paper.
Also, buy one of those acrylic printer stands from HP to stock
a ream of paper under the printer.

All of us are quite pleased with the printers.
