  • i would recommend the canon mp460.not sure of price as i bought mine from makro but ease of use and printing photos etc is spot on and so easy with all the slots for picture cards etc.

    Click on the button for 15% off (it says today only - but has been up for a few weeks). Search for the Epson DX7000f and add it to your basket - £95.86 delivered next day.

    Edit - 8% Quidco as well.
    All the World is a Stage; and I'm going through a difficult one at the moment!

    I've just bought a Canon MP160 from WHSmiths for £37, does everything i want it to, good print quality and fast.

    seen this instore at my local tesco, seems a decent enuff printer but really Depends on how your going to use it......

    Amount of printing, is speed an issue?
    Will you print photos or just documents?
    Does the scanning quality need to be particularly high?

    Maybe if you answered the above or gave more details on its use someone with a bit more knowledge could help you:)

    With this printer you can pick up cartridges fairly cheap i have seen them for this at £6.00 per set,so it might be worth looking into how much each printers cartridges are as well cos a cheap printer could cost you a lot in the end.
  • Don't go for a HP! Have one at work - awful, inl cartridges expensive and always breaking down and then you end up ringing some call centre on the asia continent for help - it's hopeless.
    I have a canon multi function at home - a Pixma but can't remember the model number. Very good printer and I would buy canon again. I think most canons come with individual ink cartridges which works out very economical as you only replace the colour that has run out. The cartridges are very reasonably priced too so there's no real need to go for compatables.

    You must have bought a lemon I'm sorry to say. I have a HP PSC 2410 and it's superb. I've had it for four years now without a single problem. I couldn't be without it and I use it for my business all the time. Before then, I had another HP one and that one was excellent also.
