Cant go wrong with epsons

I use an Epson R220 - cost me 65 quid including two sets of ink. 6 colours.

I use compatablies and get 12 carts for a tenner from 3000 rpm in Dundee. Whereever you are you prolly will get compatable carts at the smaller stores.

UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES BUY A LEXMARK !!!!!

cheers mate, we just been shopping and picked up that printer, shes happy which means i get coffee's made for me

Was a bloody joke in the shop tho (like ETS with PC stuff) 1st step in the door and u have people charging at you asking if we need help lol, found the printer for £65 then they say u need to buy a USB cable £15 then they say the ink cartridges only come half full and at £12 each we only bought a replacment black cartridge.


But she is happy with it, nice solid prints

Boo

Get a CIS (Bulk Ink) system, best £30 I ever spent. Also learn the counter reset button combination, epson's are well known for claiming they need a pad change (£70) when the pad's are barely used. Google SCC it's worth it even without a CIS.
