Which printer is the best one to buy in the Uk?

epson you can buy individual cartridges

I am on my second Epson in ten years, the other was still great but wasn't compatible with this new PC. It is a scanner and a photocopier too. It was £60 at a computer fair, they hold them often in most towns. www.inkworld.co.uk are a great company for ink cartridges etc and stock for all sorts of printers. it cost me about £11 for four black cartridges last time. I order on their website and they arrive a couple of days after. the same stuff in the shops is about £18 for one cartridge.

THE BEST IS EPSON.

canon

go to pc world and by the epson 4050 the ink cost for 4 would be £24.99 for a set of 4 the epson resolution would be 5760 x 1440 giving you the bestest and cheapest printer costing you just £59.99 the picture quality will scan up to 48 bit scan which means it can print up to 23 trillion colours that a 100% fact

Either Epson, or Canon. I 'defined' my current printer like this. First, do a search for 'Continuous Ink Supply System' , then that will give you a list of printers that can be adapted (but mod is not permanent, can be reverted). Pick your printer, pick your system. Cost of ink....embarrasing CHEAP. Epson carts hold 13ml ink, cost about £6 I buy my ink 600ml a go, thats about 45 carts... for £20. WORKS OUT AT FORTY PENCE A CARTRIDGE. Heres a couple of examples...

I have recently bought an HP Photosmart 8450 from pc world (£89) and it is the best printer i have ever had....i print loads of photos for my business and find it excellent and so easy to use, infact foolproof (i am very BLONDE!)

i also have hp..hewlett packard.....printer scanner photocopier...its great...costs me £30 for the ink about every 4 to 6 months....

The best according to the February edition of Which? is the Canon IP4200 at £70 with running costs of £139 over 3 years as agains over £300 for a HP or Brother.
