Recommendations for a Economical Printer.

[Darrin Turnbull]

I've got hp 3070a in the long term it's getting expensive. I know theres plenty of information out there but its nice to have real world experience/suggestions.

I got a second hand laser printer off ebay for £30 with enough toner to last forever.

I can't think of better economy, fantastic printer (best I have ever had) but B&W only.

Samsung ML-1665

Actually chose that model after reading many reviews.

I have ( and had several ) Cheap Canon printers . When the ink runs out its cheaper to buy another printer with ink in it than buy the replacement cartridges ......

I recently got a Hewlett Packard with the 'instant ink' package, seems to work well for what I need.

Apparently these are good as you don't need to replace the ink cartridges. https://www.epson.co.uk/gb/en/viewcon/corporatesite/products/mainunits/consumables/16265

Thanks for the suggestions. Maybe i should try going paperless more.

Good call.... our printer is constantly being sweared at.... Epson do a more basic 'ecotank' thing here.... costs a couple hundred £'s

 

Will probably get one of these: https://www.epson.co.uk/gb/en/viewcon/corporatesite/products/mainunits/overview/16268

We run an OKI 5650 colour laser that has had silly amounts of paper go through it, it's run on compatible cartridges, the only problem with them is initial start up time, costly OPC belt changes, and their size.

We also run a canon ip7250 with refillable cartridges which work out about 50p per refill, that one is used for any graphics as lasers can get costly to run on intense graphics

Hi

 

The best printer Ive ever used & maintained is the legendary HP LaserJet 5N - Ive seen several with well over 1,000,000 pages through them but theyre a bit long in the tooth now.

 

I recently bought a Dell network laser with a duplex unit, cant recall the model but its similar to a LaserJet.

 

If you want to go paperless then get some software like Fine Print PDF Factory - a very good piece of software so you print your invoices to PDF & mail them out.
