Which Printer?

Options
My Epson CX3650 has stopped working and does not even switch on! I have changed scart lead but does not help.
I need a basic printer with cheap compatible Ink Cartridges.
All I need is to print off Boarding Passes and copy certain documents. I rarely use the one I have so nothing fancy.
Any advice wouldbe appreciated!

    Watch that you get the printer you ordered as they have been substituting them recently for the XP Range which do not have sensibly priced compatibles yet.

    If you just want a bog standard printer I would go for the Epson sx445w model or similar models. If you don't want fancy touchscreen panel on the front etc you can get a bare minimum one for £40 in pcworld. Equally laser printer can be had for £50, with the toner cartridge costing around £40 to replace after 1,500 to 2,000 printouts. The ink for the inkjet epson printers are £7.50 for four compatible ink cartridges.

    my daughter bought the Epson SX235W All-in-One Wi-Fi ( one of the ones in santer's post) from Argos & she's very happy with it. She got cartridges on offer too.
    As she mostly uses a laptop, she thought she'd go for the wi-fi but otherwise, would have been happy to get a lower spec.
