Half decent printer recommendations

[E65Ross]

Hi guys

After a half decent quality printer which isn't going to break after a year, like some do. Ideally the ability to print A3 if possible. Want to be able to print fairly decent quality images/pictures. Ideally with an SD card slot so I can put that straight in from the camera. I see some have WiFi capability, that would also be ideal so I could print documents from my laptop remotely without having to have my laptop connected....means I can have the printer stored away somewhere where it's able to print but not be "in the way". I would also like one that can scan/copy too

Also - some printers require insanely expensive ink cartridges...so if there's one that will accept cheaper alternatives, that's also a bonus.

Cost - not too fussed but don't want to spend huge amounts if it's not necessary.

Thanks

After years, Epson still seem to win with cost per print consumables, I think there are stats tables somewhere online as have seen them before and buy one with extended warranty as they all have tons of moving parts and a general nightmere

For volume printing look at Epsons Ecotank range. They use ink tanks that are refilled by bottle.

Expensive to buy the printer but very cheap afterwards.

I bought a very early one (L355 model) 4 years ago, still going strong. Last time I looked it had something like a 70000 sheet count.

Sadly given i work in the printer auditing industry i deal with data collection with little knowledge on specific models lol

But as stated the epson seems to be about the best choice
