What shall i do with an old new printer?

wazza

How time flies. It must be around 10 years ago that i bought an Epson Stylus Photo 900 printer. It has never been opened. Was wondering what to do with it. It is no use to me because i have a all-in-one printer which the kids use.

Was thinking of putting it on ebay and/or gumtree but do not know what to ask for. Is there any other place i can list it for sale. Was wondering if there is a demand for a printer like this. It is geat for photo printing and printing onto cd/dvds.

I would search for it and see what it retails for now, that would give you an idea of how much to charge.

It has been discontinued years ago. There is a used one on ebay, he is asking for £25+ but no bids yet

Could be worth more if it is unused, though it has a single colour cartridge, compatible colour available at £3

Probably prints good photos and CD printing may be a selling point

Thanks for the info, have sent him a pm.

The printer is still available.

I am open to offers. As for delivery i don't know what to do.

Forgive me , but it is not very MSE ie you won't get a dime for it, but why not ask your local Nursing/Care Home if they can use it for the benefit of the residents eg Printing photos of days out/fetes etc. (ask for the Activities co-ordinator or Home Manager)
The only thing you will get is the feeling of doing something good for someone who you don't know, and whilst you go and visit to ask if they want it, ask them if you can help in any other way.

I expect weight is the thing

This may be a good way, though check other options

Their full list, though saw something not so good about Yodel in praise and vent

If it prints to CDs I might be interested, I film Deaf Rugby for a charity and put it on DVD, and it would give the DVDs a better presentation than my writing on them with permanent ink.

Let me know more about it via a Private Message.
