Kodak.

I bought one for about £80 and the ink costs £10 colour and £6 black. I had a canon and epson before this and this is by far a better printer and the inks last just as long. I was paying over £50 for the epson ink .

Kodak Printer

Kodak tri colour and Black ink

kodak, are cheap however I've just bought an A3 Brother DCP 6690 and the replacement ink is £14 for the black and £10 for each colour for the high capacity items (i know still not cheap)

However I bought some replacement cartriges from Inkrite and they where £3.70 for black and £3.18 for the colours and I cant tell the difference!

Just picked up an Epson sx215 from Asda for 40quid.

Checked the ink prices beforehand on eBay and they looked quite cheap.
