Hey guys, not sure where this goes in the specifics so I will post it here.
I need some advice on a new printer, basically the thing of absolute paramount importance is that I can get cheap ink.
You can spend all day comparing print speed and photo quality etc but at the end of the day if it's going to cost me £30 or more every couple of months to refill it then I'm not interested.

I usually bought my inks from an online shop that gave me something like 10 colours and 10 blacks for £20, or 5 each for a tenner or something like that the deal was anyway. Cheap.
I had a Canon i250 and although it wasnt superb the print quality was easily good enough for what I want, and it was a low spec photo quality printer so it could do big prints too.

Basically has anyone got any advice, it's probably Canon or Epson isn't it cos HP and the others are far too expensive on ink and the suckers go to normal supermarkets or ink shops and buy them and I'm just not going to do that.

One of these printers that says 'refill with genuine Epson ink' and doesn't let you print until you do, that can get lost as well.

What you reckon?
Any ideas?
Thanks :)
 
Want to add too, WiFi is immensely useful as we can print then from laptops or my PC in my room instead of having to send it downstairs to the PC there.
Anyone know of a printer that has Wifi + cheap ink?
I don't.
 
ah mannn. thanks for your help guys but im used to paying, i think, £10 for 5 blacks and 5 colour which is ridiculously good, and to be honest my canon i250 isnt the finest quality printer in the world but it's good enough for what i need.

i wouldnt be even looking at getting a new printer if my thing wasnt stopping itself from working- it says 'waste ink collectors are full and need replacement' and basically even if you are a canon technician thats a joke cos its a mega pain in the bum job to do and i cant really do it myself cos its awkward and nobody really knows how to do it.
so, damn.
