    Paid about £150 for this printer approx 6 months ago and very pleased with it.

    Part of the Furniture Combo Breaker
    Adding 5% off code (DCBYAW ) makes it £78.84 all inc. :)

    Couple of places doing them for £83 or so at the moment.Comet is one of them...
    Good printer at a good price though!!

    I'm waitin on my printer from Index though :D lol (Believe it when I see it!!!!)
  • I'd avoid Epson's if I wasn't planning to print regularly. I have one and it requires multiple runs of the cleaning program (which consumes ink) when I want to print, because I only print every so often. My friend with a difference Epson experienced the same thing, although I suppose modern ones could be better (bought mine in 2001 or 2)

    I agree. Epson and Canon printers are not good for the occasional printer.
    HP printers tend to be the best for this type of person.

    An unbelievable £6.99 plus postage per set of six (or any combination of the six colours) from here:

    http://www.diskdepot.co.uk/acatalog/Epson_R200_300_500.html

    We bought these recently, also a set for the C80, came within days and very good service. To buy genuine Epsons would cost almost ten times more. Be careful which postage option you select - it's worth ordering two sets to get the best value... don't order three or the postage cost will leap right up because of the weight.

    SVP do the same set of six for £8.99 BUT they have a 99p postage offer if you spend over £30 (ends Friday)

    Again, brilliant service, the order came less than 48 hours after placing it.
