Hi,

I am trying to find a cheap inkjet printer, nothing special just something to use for text and perhaps a few graphs. The only problem I'm having is that I need it to have a parallel port on it and not this new fangled USB stuff (am still running 95).

Any ideas on product/where from?

Cheers

Chris

 

I've seen some lexmark printers being flogged off in PC WOrld for around 20-30 quid. Also, Jungle used to flog these off too...

 

Got one for the missus .. Lexmark Z13 . £30 I think we paid.

Surprisingly good quality printing.

How about a HP Deskjet 640c, i think they go for about 49.99 now...

Good little printer for the monies..

HTH,

John.

 

watch out for HP and lexmark- you can pick the printers up for buttons, but you get your trousers pulled down when you need replacement ink carts.

cannon printer here:

you can gets carts at www.prink.co.uk for £3.50 black & £5.50 colour.

the carts for a similar HP are £14 and £17.

unfortunately the cannon is usb, I dont know if W95 likes usb, but i know you can get a usb card for next to nothing, or you may want to upgrade ( have you considered entering the 21st century )

theres a parralel/usb epson here for reasonable money, we use epsons at work and the cartriges are also cheap.
