Class Action Lawsuit Seeks Money for Consumers Mislead Over False Print
Speed Claims
Do you own an inkjet printer manufactured by Hewlett Packard or
Brother?
Does it print as fast as the company said it would?
If you have been waiting forever at the output tray for your print
jobs, you are not alone.
The Lexington Law Group, LLP is a consumer public interest law firm
that filed a case challenging the advertising practices of these
printer manufacturers. The case alleges that these companies falsely
inflate the print speed ratings of their inkjet printers in order to
spur sales.
If you own an inkjet printer and would like more information about the
case, including information about becoming a party to the case, contact
us. We will respond by e-mail promptly.

Did you just see that ambulance race by? Shouldn't you be chasing it?
Is this case in the public's interest or the Lexington Law Group's
interest? Why don't you go and do something worthwhile, like helping
third world citizens or doing more pro-bono work, instead of "helping"
consumers who buy $59 printers? The US legal system makes me lose faith
in honor an sensibility.

Soon there will be a class action event against relabelers who fail to
properly disclose what they are selling and also warning prospective
customers about print clogging and fading as well as false claims about
results.

Soon your ISP will block all of your incessant bullshit from being
posted, you unmitigated idiot.

p.s. there is no such thing as a "relabeler".

Sounds like just another sleazy law firm that can't make a decent living by
traditional methods. Sure, let's sue and get 98% of the settlement for our
"clients".

Isn't Lexington where Lexmark are based? Coincidence? I think not?

All printers are fast when marketing bases speed on
a one pixel gif, or one full stop per page.
They can also be advertised as very economical on
ink.
The industry would love a standard page with a standard
image for printer comparison purposes.

I read somewhere that the EEC was trying to get manufacturers to adopt
standard documents (for speed, running cost and lifetime comparisons) but
printer manufacturers will never agree to that - they would all want to use
a test method that made their printers come out best.
From the summary it looks like this comes close but I'm not familiar with
it...
ISO/IEC 13660:2001
Information technology -- Office equipment -- Measurement of image quality
attributes for hardcopy output -- Binary monochrome text and graphic images

ISO/IEC 24712 is a pending standard for color page yield. See
http://h10060.www1.hp.com/pageyield/...100/index.html for samples
of the proposed standard pages. For monochrome laser printer yields the
ISO/IEC 19752 standard was adopted in 2004. See
http://h10060.www1.hp.com/pageyield/...ldArticle.html.

What do you call a bus full of lawyers going off a cliff with one
empty seat? Answer: A tragic waste of space.
