I'm looking to buy an All in One Colour Printer for casual use. I don't want ink drying up mainly cause I don't use the printer often. I also don't want expensive ink cartridge. Can anyone recommend me some printers? the initial cost can be anything it's just the ink cost that matters me most.
EDIT: Are there any printers besides epson ecotank that have refillable ink cartridges?
Stock up on cheap printers when you need new ink, throw printer out.
but most printers come with half filled cartridge
Non genuine ink is so cheap.
Just buy any printer and ebay the replacement ink.
Avoid non-genuine for coloured ink. They never give you accurate colours.
Get a cheap laser printer. The toner keeps longer than ink.
Was going to suggest the same thing.
HL-1110 paid between $28-$40. Or wireless version mono laser for $50-$80. Or wait for a cheap wireless colour laser. Search under ozbargain for past deals.
Ink only lasts about 3 months and dries up - use or not. laser lasts much longer.
Check ebay.
I recently bought a duplex large office colour laser printer off eBay for ~$10. It was incorrectly listed by it's model number. The issue with it is the upper thermal roller is damaged. Bought one from aliexpress for $15. These printers are currently selling for $800+ brand new.
This. My $30 Brother laser is an awesome lil machine :)
Brother laser is way to go, they are cheap and even their genuine toner aren't that expensive.
Are any colour lasers even half-decent for photos?
Are there any printers with refillable ink? I see most of printers only do cartridge only
Epson ecotank
Definately the brother laser. Mine is going strong after 3 years. No toner changes so far
