Not too big
Wireless
Good Value
Reasonably cheap to run (ink)
Any recommendations........

Size may be a problem if space is an issue. But go laser printer every time. The ink doesn't dry out and if you are a medium to heay user (think kids doing homework) then they are worth every penny. I have got two Dell ones - C1760 series to be precise as the generic cartridges are really chaep off Amazon. Do a bit of working out and see if the original outlay is worth it for what you are printing. I have chucked loads of inkjets in the bin in the past as they dried out or stopped working.Quote:

You've completely lost me here mate, what do you mean?
What are you printing?

Not big documents or large volumes. Maybe used once/twice a week, 20 A4 Max.
Warhol.

Amazing piece of kit for next to nothing. Wireless, prints off laptop and mobile devices. I bought a brand new toner in November as i was told toner was low and have not installed it yet.
Family can all print as well as it's wireless.
Similar size to a 12 box of 330ml beers

i Got this one about 2 week ago

works well enough, my youngest daughter appears to print 50 sheets a week for various stuff, so i went with a laser
downside to lasers is that the toner set's are maybe 100 quid for a set
Thanks all.
I have found the compatible toners work very well.Quote:

That's what I did before buying the Dell one I bought as a full set of toners is anything from £15 to £20 and they last ages. For example the last set I got was these - https://www.amazon.co.uk/Do-Compatib...s%2C151&sr=1-3

I do a fair bit of printing and was finding the cost of replacement cartridges a nightmare.Quote:

I’ve got one of these and I have a lot of problems with the drivers - the printer just drops off when it feels like and frequently just decides not to print.Quote:

Caxton.
That is odd, I have had mine for over a year now and it is very solid connected to my PC, but also works well with laptops over wifi.Quote:

Used to have refillable ink reservoirs on a old printer ( used to use it to print CD's and DVD's many years ago ) made ink really cheap and worked well, it was a after market type of add-on though and i mourned the loss of the printer, didnt know they still did themQuote:
