I have a super little Canon mixpar mfd, which has got thoroughly fed up with me ignoring it! I guess I attempt to print maybe once every 6 weeks.

Hello all I need some recommendations. Other than epsom printers can anyone recommend a cheap printer to run. My budget is about £80, maybe a tad higher
Thanks in advance
If it's B & W only, go for Laser printers. Nothing can beat them for price (I bought a HP Laserjet 4350 on Fleabay for £99), it will print another 4000 pages in B&W before I need to replace the toner on it
If it's colour, I'd probably go for Epsom as they have seperate tanks IIRC and I believe a small inkjet technology
I haven't printed in colour for years tbh, waste of money to meOwner of andrewhope.co.uk, hate cars and love them

If you're printing occassionally you don't want separate inks, they tend to be more expensive than combination ink cartridges and if you only use occassionally you will be replacing all the cartridges when they clog up, not when they run out of ink.Changing the world, one sarcastic comment at a time.0
