Did my mention of the actual part number for the HP tray kit and how to get
it not come through? You paid $4 for t he printer and even if you add the
full $50 list price for the tray set that's cheap for either the 1200c or
1600c printers. If you didn't get the message I can resend and also check to
see what my other suppliers get for them.
Also the tip on buying mass qty's of carts is valid as they will clog/dry in
the jets - part of the mechanics of the type of ink inthem. Refilling is ok
a few times but you have to remember that it may or may not be as good as
the original.

Thanks for the pointer, Doug. I searched on the HP web site and couldn't
even
get a nibble with the DJ1200C as a search term.
I had the general sense that this printer uses the same trays as some other
peripheral, either a laser printer or a plotter, either of which is more
likely
to turn up in the thrift stores or surplus outlets than a DJ1200C. I paid
$4
for the printer, so I'm not out much if it ends up too troublesome.
Unfortunately, nothing else in the world seems to use the same printer
cartridges. This printer happens to have nearly full cartridges, and it's
pretty clean, aside from the missing feeder tray.

The Deskjet 1200c is also known by it's product
number of C1767A and the
tray part number is C1676-60122 (tray kit w/ upper and lower tray) and
HP's
list price is $49.00 which includes shipping. You can
order it yourself by
phone (800-227-8164 from 5a to 5pm PST) or go to http://partsdirect.hp.com
and "shop for parts" putting a quantity of 1 on the qty box and the above
part number in the part number box. I normally can get a discount on them
and even drop-ship to a person but HP is screwing around with the ASP
system
and I'm not able to access them my normal way.
Since you have the part number also go to www.printerworks.com or
www.agson.com and check with them on price. Both sell to the public and
are
usually under HP's price. Agson's online
database sucks so I recommend
calling them on the 800 number.
The 1200c and 1600c are durable and expensive printers and well worth the
cost of even buying the tray kit from HP at list, unlike some of the
junker
inkjets made by Canon, Epson, Lexmark, etc. The 1200c
and 1600c are more
in
the professional series as well.

that
Has anyone got a reliable recommendation on where
one might obtain a
replacment
paper tray for the HP DeskJet 11200C printer. I'd like to know whether
that
tray is interchangeable with any other printer or
plotter models, in the
event
anyone knows that.
Ebay or worse some legacy support joint. The catch with paper trays is almost NONE of them have any kind of identifying
marking, so that when I
find a "tray" if I can't visually ID it, most of the time I know its going
to NEVER be IDed, hence no value to anybody. Most of them get tossed.
I don't recognize that printer model, but do see 300XL and 1200XL
(unfortunately also typically going in the trash).
