Recommend me a printer
 

Hi folks,

I need a new inkjet printer, but want one that is a good balance of cheap to run yet can print photo quality images well.

Currently have an ageing Canon iP4000 which still prints very well, but seems to go through ink at a heck of a rate.

Any suggestions?

Kodak are good quality and the very cheap to replace the ink.

I got fed up buying ink for ours so for photos we the online sites. And for documents wife prints them at work.

Avoid Lexmark

got a budget in mind? i got this 6 months ago, bit of a beast lol, but been realy good so far, still on the origional ink carts as well despite lots of printing.

stick with something Canon !!!

Not an HP photosmart , the way it goes through ink i would be better of paying a photographer to take photos and print them .

All inkjets go through refills quicker than they should. They are all designed that way, the profit for the companies is in the consumables not the printers! Get an office quality laser printer f1, their cartridges last forever :thumb: ;)

Thanks for the replies. Kodak have been touted to me today and I see they get a mention on here.

Are lasers any better at printing photographs these days?

I had an OKI colour laser about 7 years ago and it was shocking at photo colour reproduction - sold it after 6 months.

Yep. Get an office HP colour laser jobby off ebay, cheap as chips and good photo quality.

HP Laserjet Enterprise 500 :) Joking aside or Canon or Brother ones.
