Which Inkjet Printer?
I'm after a new printer that will be used in the home for printing basic B&W text (letters) and less often photo's, buisness cards (on A4 - to be cut up), etc.
My budget is up to £100 but preferable under £85. My requirements/priorities are: Quality - fairly important, must be able to print nice, clear photo's on glossy paper. Speed - not so important, it won't be used that often and never in a rush. Happy to print at less than 0.5ppm when seeking top quality. Running Costs - Fairly important; I don't want to have to spend tons just to keep an infrequent use printer running (seperate black cartridge important). Wireless - This would be a BIG bonus. I basically want wireless and would only live without it if it really wasn't justifiable in my price range or requires too many compromises. Reliability - Very important; in my experience inkjets can be a PITA when they don't get used that often. I want to be able to turn it on after a month of sitting doing nothing, let it warm up and print perfectly. Borderless Printing - Important, I want this ability. Size - A4; if I can get A3 at this price without compromise on on other factors then great but A4 is fine. Noise - Not a big issues, won't be used often enough. Definate "no go's": Lexmark Z1480 Wireless - It appears to meet my requirement but I've read a lot of bad reviews. Thanks in advance :) |
I'velooked into this too, but with a different slant... however a coupleto consider...
Kodak 5300 all in one,,, ecelent reviews and very cheap to run,,, less than half the cost of a normal inkjet. Canon, MP600r inks not cheap but it has wireless and does a top job... with your requirments then i go Kodak, find a review on google. daz |
talking about inkjets beng a PITA
I got my old Epson Stylus 670 out of the loft after 7 years of gathering dust, turned it on, did a clean of the inks (using the software ) perfect prints using the pc world 4 quid cheap own brand 10 year old inks :D now THAT is reliable, doesnt quite cut it in todays standards I know, but that is one hell of a reliable printer :) |
Dazz, only issue with both of those is that they are all-in-one which I don't really need or want and which adds to their physical bulk.
