    I just got a new HP Deskjet 6940 and I've been printing a lot of CD inserts and trays. In comparing them to ones printed on my old Deskjet 960, the pictures are much better and the colors are much richer, but the text is noticeably less sharp and defined. Is this a problem with a lot of the new HPs?

    run thru all the print head cleaning and calibration stuff then check the configuration(in control panel) and see if you an make it print sharper and not smoother.
