Me too, been looking for months, do not think anyone is manufacturing them anymore. Good luck in your search, if you find one please post it on here.This would be my ideal printer:
- simple (JUST a printer, not a printer/scanner/etc)
- laser (more ink-efficient apparently)
- NO colour printing facility (just normal)
- cheap, obviously
- ink already installed
- cheap ink replacements
- NOT wireless
- NEW, not used
Any idea where I can get one? Have looked on eBay and in my local big Tescos, didn't find much though. Tesco's had a very modern one for ~£25, but frankly I'm sick of all the gadgets that everything seems to have ("wireless scanner copier ultra-high def 250GB HD color printer", NO, I just want a simple printer that I can print documents with, anything else simply gives me a headache). However I have a sad feeling that the simpler printers are likely to be more expensive because they're now "outdated"..

Try Amazon or a quick google search. The latter provides links from around £38 upwards.

Electrical123 have a Samsung laser printer for £37 including delivery. The toner cartridge that comes with it is only half full so you'll probably get about 650 pages out of it before you need a replacement.

The cheapest compatible toner cartridges I could find was £24 including delivery from this Ebay seller with excellent feedback.

A lot of money I know compared with the cost of the printer but it will be a full cartridge which should give you 1400+ pages.0
