Yes, I fully understand.  I bought my toners ahead of season over 670.00 worth.  Then my HP printer started to fail and leave marks,, internal issue.  It got to the point it was unacceptable. That's when I found out the secret to companies are to make newer and newer models and non of them take the same cartridges.   And of course this model is extinct.   Found a refurbished one on the opposite side of the country. So I bought it and it took a long time coming due to the trucking issues etc...  so I could on process returns but not print the hard copies for 9 days... by the time it came.. It took me two days to package all those up....so i am so behind .... LOL    Venting is good.. LOL
