A couple things right off the top of my head:
1. Why do you feel you need a new office printer and computer? What were some difficulties you had with your current products that contributed to your decisions to get new?
2. What is your definition of "quality, longevity, and so on"?

Zetacon, thank you for your questions. 1.My HP Desktop Pavillion was purchased in 2017. Six years later,the fan is starting to go. MSN loading isn't that good. I have also been having pc-functioning troubles with the Xfinity Website. There are some other things-that I will assume are smaller/minor. I was told that my HP Pavillion could last weeks, months or longer. My HP Pavillion does not have the ability to upgrade to Windows 11. We are about due for MSN to start thinking about Windows 12. I was told that my new Windows 11 pc would come with the ability to upgrade to Windows 12. 2. I do not think that my old HP Officejet Pro 6968 is that great. 3. In this case, I will define quality as being the way the pc currently works/functions. In this case, I will define longevity as the ability for the pc to last several more years. Over a period of time, the technology just doesn't work as well as it did when it was newer and younger. I do not want to stray away from my original post. I am still looking for opinions and comments on my new pc and printer.

1. What are you going to be using the computer for (just surfing the internet, gaming, etc.)?
2. Personally, I would never buy another inkjet printer again to print my photos. The cost of the ink, plus the problems that always crop up (like lines), make it so much easier and cheaper for me to send them out to my favorite photo printer and the quality is much better. In addition, if you don't use the printer often, the ink nozzles get clogged and you waste so much ink (and money) just clearing them. And if you're looking for longevity regarding the photos printed, no inkjet photo is going to last as long as one professionally printed, unless your inks are pigment based, not dye based. Dye based inks fade over time. We have both an inkjet printer and a laser printer in the house and use the laser printer 90% of the time. Since I get my photos printed elsewhere, there's really no reason for a color printer and the laser has never had any issues like the inkjet does.

Wildmaven,thank you for your reply.
For my uses I really do not need that much of a home pc. I am used to the Desktop and a Tower, and the intel core processor with RAM 12 GB. I have no experience with the all-in-one home computers. As I stated in my first post I purchased that HP All-In -One Home PC. What do you think of the pc that I just purchased? Is the AMD Ryzen 5 - 8GB Memory - 1TB SSD as good the Intel Core Processors?
1. I will be on the internet for such things as email, online ordering and so on. Other than the internet my main home pc usage will continue to be focused on using creating and saving informatiion on Word or Notes. 2. I may load some photographs or images. I will not be fccusing on photographs or images. I will be focusing on printing out information or documents. Many years ago I had a laser ink printer. I then switched to the HP Office Inkjet. I have been using officjet ink jet printers for years. I would not recommend the HP Officejet-that I currently have. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.
