What is the best printer brand?

I want to buy a printer, what brand is the best?

  • I am looking for a multi-purpose printer/fax/scanner. What brand(s) should I avoid? What brand(s) are reliable? Should I buy factory reconditioned printer or stick with new?

  • Answer:

    HP laserjet will printout the best quality and save you money because the toner cartriges last a long time and no drying out print heads. Cannon inkjets are the most reliable and cartriges can be easily refilled and don't have a chip in the ink cartrige so you can use generic cartriges. Sick with a new one and avoid Epson or lexmark as the ink cartriges cost more and with the chip in the cartrige you can't buy lower cost generic or refilled cartriges.

asking this question is like asking people steelers or cowboys?? ford or chevy?? we all have our opinions. i have had a lexmark inkjet and totally loved it. i used it til it died and now own a laser mfg by hp. will use it til it dies, also. the absolute best advice i could give you is this: find out who has the best support, if you encounter problems. in order to do the fairest comparison, i'd consult consumer reports. magazines are available at the local library, or bookstore and they also have a .com. choice is yours. as far as new or refurb. . . .take cost and support into play. you may be able to get a new lower end unit for about the same price as a higer end refurb unit. what are you looking for? how much do you have to spend?? usually, new is better, because you have warranties to consider. on occasion if you get a refurb from the mfgr you can also find warranties. search hard and long do not make hasty choices. you are wise to ask about problems, but as with cars, each make and model varies. consumer reports is a great place to start. hope this helps - good luck

new one. canon, cheap to buy ink. and easy to refill. (but cost more on printer price) epson, cheap on printer cost, but cost more on ink, not easy to refill. laser type, save on ink, because it will not dry like inkjet if you not use it in long time.

Have been using HPs for 13 years. On my third just because I like wireless technology. The others never quit on me. Used HPs at work, also. I would avoid Brother, if they still make them. I have never purchased a reconditioned, so can't give my opinion.
