New printer suggestions

Options
Hi again everyone!

I'm in the market for a new printer as my Epson Stylus SX215 has stopped working and I was wondering if anyone had any recommendations for a new colour A4 inkjet printer, ideally with a scanner.

WiFi and built-in duplexer are optional, but would be "nice to haves".

    A decent range of 'free' printers.


    You obviously pay for it all....but still good value in my eyes.

    Yeah, but I think that company has at least 1 thread in Consumer Rights or Praise / Vent / Warnings with complaints.

    Plus, do you know what's with the cockerel on the logo image?

    So has John Lewis, Tesco, Asda, Staples, etc.

    On that basis, you may struggle to find anywhere to buy your new printer. ;)

    Go with something Epson, then if you have any spare ink from your current model you can use it on the new one.

    Put DiNozzo & McGee onto it.
    Tall, dark & handsome. Well two out of three ain't bad.
  • I got an Epson 440 about 18 months ago and it's really easy to use. Printer, scanner, copier and prints photos ok. Not very fast but has been great for me. The inks have lasted well but I'm now researching replacement cartridges. I can recommend this as a medium use home printer.
  • I have a dead Epson Stylus SX100 printer that uses the monkey range of inks. I have no problem buying a new printer but I have about 30 or 40 compatible ink cartridges TO711 - TO714. Does anyone know of a modern printer that still uses these inks. Otherwise it will be a visit to ebay to sell them.

    I have searched Google looking for a site that lists all the range to no avail.

    Thanks in advance

    I bought an Epson XP422 about six months ago (Cost less than £70 from Argos) and it is a multi purpose one - photo quality printer, scanner and copier.

    New Epson printers seem to use a different cartridges.

    If you search for one of the cartridges you have, many sellers will list which printers it fits. But it may not be a complete list. Example.
