FWIW -- regarding printers & their inks:

• HP and Kodak "inks" will smear & streak if you mark over them with just about any yellow highlighter (any color!).

• EPSON "inks" do NOT smear & streak and are water-permanent.

...so, if you plan on "highlighting" ANYTHING in those printed catalogs, I'd recommend staying away from HP and Kodak printers.

...EPSON is known GOOD, but they're not the only game in town. Maybe some of the "re-fill" ink places can pour good-ink back into used HP and Kodak cartridges for a better "deal"?
