So I thought I'd get hold of HP support for the 39gii. The only option listed is "Phone", and don't expect it to be at a time convenient to the consumer (I used to have a job where it would have been impossible to call at those times):

I once criticised walterb for using the generic term "customer" (in that instance I preferred "member" of the forum).

I consider the term "consumer product" a bad construction, does it mean something like "HP product"?

Is "consumer" even more generic than "customer"?

In Bart's case I'd prefer "dupe" to "consumer".
