  Can anyone suggest a small/cheap/reliable printer that I could use with this?

    DO you need just printer or multifunction printer?

    Define small and define cheap, please. Also what do you want to print with it ? photos, text, etc.

    I got this, and am pretty happy with it : http://www.officeworks.com.au/retail/products/Technology/Pri…

    I was, however, specifically after a MFP with duplexing and multi-sheet input for scanning.

    Seems to be best price around for this model as well.

        Best to use an Epson with 3rd party ink since it uses piezo printheads its less prone to clogging from alternate ink. See link here for Piezo
        N.B. For the Workforce 645, it's $182 at MSY, so $185 at Officeworks is VERY good StaticIce Search on Workforce 645

        @Hongas
        A CISS is essentially a set of fake/mimic cartridges with pipelines to an external ink-tank, as long as the chip on the ciss cartridge mimics a valid chip like the ones made by the printer's manufacturer (that sells high quality at crazy unaffordable prices), theoretically the CISS set should work with any printer with the main criterion of the mimic chip reading correctly to the printer.
        As long as the printer has an easily-accessible cartridge (will be every printer since they are made to be user-friendly), some space for the pipelines to get out of the printer to the external ink containers (almost always the same space you open to access your cartridge for replacement).

  I've been using this for a week, the CISS I am using one on Cannon MG5350 ($150~$200).
  Ink color is ok, only time will tell how much it will last…

  1. I am very happy with FAST DHL delivery

  2. 1st delivery package leaked - service man ask me to send back the leaked one and send a NEW one out to me next day (NO COST). - thank you

  3. when I had problem with the "chip" they sent me a new one (still waiting on this one I am sure it is on its way).

  I do recommend this to someone is good with DIY skill.
