The Epson Stylus SX515w Wireless All In One Printer is reduced to £59.99 in Argos at the moment and there are lots of other reductions on printers.

Sorry the link didn't seem to work but it's item no: 670/5000

That's a pretty good find.

Sorry to butt in - I'm thinking of buying the Brother DCP J315W. Does anyone have one of these? Also, can anyone recommend anywhere to get compatable ink? Thanks.

One source for compatibles, I use their inks in an Epson R2880, there may be a cheaper supplier but cannot vouch for them

Have used oyyy

Hi All,

Following my earlier contribution to the thread, I was persuaded to get the SX515. I got it used from ebay, but with no ink, power cable or manual etc. It did have inks, but the printer was displaying "ink cartridges not recognised". I replaced with new ones & all seemed fine... until I actually try to print / copy. Some colours are not working etc... alignment was out, so I printed the alignement test and just got a blank page! Would really appreciate some help. Have I done something wrong or have I been ripped off?

Try their live chat, which has the advantage of them being reluctant to go away until it is working

Avoid saying it was second hand, and definitely avoid mentioning compatibles if used

Usually erratic colouring means the heads need cleaning, so if possible reset the alignment to defaults

In devices and printers, right click the printer, click printer preferences, on the main page, does it show the ink levels? If you click maintenance, nozzle check, does it print with a colour missing, if you click head cleaning, does it say no can do because a cartridge needs replacing?
