I am trying to balance usage with cost. Has anyone purchased a reliable printer out there recently? Even one of those that doesn't use ink?
Laser printers don't use ink, thermal printers don't use ink, for example.I don't think there is a printer in the world that doesn't use ink, but I may be wrong.
Inkjets don't use toner which is a drum of heat-activated plastic particles.Always found that the toner in our old inkjet was painful where it was probably getting damp or going hard as mentioned above.
Without a doubt, they're liquidsI often wonder if the ink is going solid as it sits there unused.
Indeed it has, however, practically as soon as it's answered its obsolete.Your specific question about a printer for home use has been asked and answered in many posts over the years.
And to be fair to the OP he did use the word 'recently' in the question.Has anyone purchased a reliable printer out there recently?
I bought the equivalent Epson printer. Very similar printer. I would highly recommend it. As with the cannon printer it is much more ecconomical than those that use cartridges.I bought a Canon Pixma Mega Tank about six months ago, which is an inkjet that uses large bottles of ink, rather than cartridges.
We got the G6500 which is out of stock in Curry's at the moment, but they have a range of them. I tried posting links, but the spam filter won't let me.
I love, love, love it.
I print quite a lot, mostly college notes, and household stuff. I was a little worried about the quality, but it's more than fine for what I need.
I think I've printed at least 1500 pages since I got it, and I've barely made a dent in the the ink that came with it. When I eventually do have to buy ink in a year or two, it'll cost around 45 quid. There were times when I was spending close to that on cartridges each month, so it's paid for itself already.
And that is what I was referring to.specific models may become obsolete
