What printer...??

[Gambit]

I currently have a A3 epson 1290S printer amazing for my graphics work but really expensive to be using it as a A4 printer.

Im after an A4 printer for printing out reports/ documents/ (in colour) something that is fast and quiet and inks last somewhile and are not that expensive to replace.

max budget: £60

Tbh it massively depends on the duty cycle. For a higher duty cycle I'd be looking at an entry level colour laser, however this will nearly double your budget. At lower duty cycles Inkjet is definitely the way to go, however it does seem to be a trade off between quality and running cost.
One thing that can save you a wad is individual cartridges. If the printer has a combined colour cartridge you'll end up replacing it when certain colours arn't empty, so this is a must.
