HP Recalls Power Cords

If you purchased a HP DeskJet or Photosmart printer in the past year, you will want to have a look at this HP safety recall notice: "The plug that connects the power cord to the printer may crack, exposing live electrical contacts and presenting a hazard for electric shock or electrocution." Apparently, replacement power cords are free and may be ordered online or by calling HP at 1-877-917-4378.

We'd like to give a special thanks to local computer repairman and Web site designer David W.Bell, whose weekly newsletter informed us of the issue so that we could warn our customers. Thanks Dave!
