Hi there

I currently have a Lexmark all in one but have never ever had a decent print from it in colour, plus the cartridges are so expensive to replace.

I want to buy another printer, one that is bog standard just to print black and white and colour documents (I will keep my lexmark for copying/scanning)

Any recommendations please

    You could try looking at this site as they at least have reviews of the printers available.

    I would check out what cartridge prices & availabilty is in your area. We had a Canon when children were at school & you could guarantee the ink would go on a Sat night meaning we had to trapse to WHSmiths on Sunday morning to get very expensive cartridges - almost every other type (or so it seemed) was available at the next door Tescos for half the price! BTW that printer cost me £30 but the cartridges were £27 each!:eek:
    We now have a Lexmark which takes 2 different types of cartridges & are readily available even in Wilkos! - I usually pay about £12 I think
    I THINK is a whole sentence, not a replacement for I Know
