Cheap printer

[PositronicRay]

I hardly ever use one, but when you need one you need one.

Should I

A) just by the cheapest, because it'll break anyway?
B) spend a bit more in the hope it'll last longer and work when I come to use it?

If it's for occasional use then consider a Laser. Inkjets dry out if not used regularly

I have one of these below. I got fed up of buying ink to do a few pages and then it drying out. 3 years of light use and I'm still on the original ink. Has wifi so you can zap your plane tickets over from your phone which is why I bought it.

Thx, ordered. Laser printers are much cheaper than I remember.

For the amount that I use it, I find a cheapie from Argos works fine. This is the one we've got - £30 quid and it does the job.

I was sick of wasting money, so now use the library as and when I need to, they will copy or print from a flasshdrive; sorted

Very pleased so far, hooks up to everything, clear and quick print.

Another +1 for a laser printer.
I dabble in some tech and buy up stuff from offices. I can ALWAYS shift on an old LaserJet. I got some Brothers from somewhere that are very basic. They are also incredibly cheap to run. Sold them all within a couple of days.

Laserjets all the way. I bought a 4100n from Ebay about 10 years ago for £60. Hasn't skipped a beat. A compatible cartridge that prints 10k pages can be picked up for less than £30. No brainer.
