Remembering to buy new ink cartridges and paper for your Printing Mailbox can be a thing of the past. If you sign up for Presto's Supplies Subscription service, a genuine HP97 tri-color replacement ink cartridge will automatically be sent to your Presto user when the ink cartridge is running low. Optionally, you can also have a ream of either HP Bright White Inkjet Paper or "Presto Memories" Premium 3-Hole Punched Inkjet Paper sent along with every other ink cartridge.

As long as you use genuine HP ink cartridges, the Printing Mailbox informs Presto how much ink is remaining when it retrieves the mail. This ensures the Supplies Subscription program sends a replacement cartridge only when it is needed.

And, you can turn on or off the automatic Supplies Subscription (or just the paper replenishment) directly from your PrestoConnect homepage. Simply sign in to your account, click on the "Manage printer settings

Did you know that more than half of Americans over the age of 65 don't have access to the Internet, according to a Pew Internet and American Life Study in 2008?

The Presto Printing Mailbox helps you and your "wired" family keep in touch with your loved ones, even if they're not in cyberspace!

Launched in 2006, the mailbox has been helping people stay close for years - but today, Presto Services Inc. announced a huge enhancement to the Presto Service, called "Presto Connect."

The new PrestoConnect has a full suite of features that helps the Presto account "manager" help care for their loved one with a Presto.  A great number of things can be controlled from the new PrestoConnect service, including pre-scheduled message delivery, message queue management and feedback, event reminders, to-do lists, and more!

The "LA Daddy" blog, which you can find at http://www.ladaddy.com, has mentioned their Presto machine, and how happy they are with it.  Here's an excerpt from the April 28, 2008 blog entry:

"...And it’s been a life saver for us. I received an HP printer in the mail and sent it off to her dad in Ohio. We pay a monthly service fee and it gives us an email address to send stuff to him (less than $10 a month, which is lower than most ISP services.) It formats anything we send automatically and no spam can be sent. You can even choose the times that it delivers and prints the emails or pics. And there’s no limit to how much you can send them each month."

In addition, the blog is running a contest in which you can win your very own Presto!
