Topic: All In One Printer Choice

[AndyInVA]

The joys of an inkjet printer, it's sometimes/usually cheaper to just buy a new printer than to replace the cartridges. You'd be better off looking into a laser printer, it'll work out cheaper in the long run and last a lot longer - maybe something like a Brother L2750 or a Canon MF743?

I thought Laserjet meant it was a laser ?

Any road, thanks for the recommendations, Canon seems like a good shout.

It's an inkjet (agree you should look at a laser if you're doing higher volume stuff) but I went with this one in the end - https://www.canon.co.uk/printers/pixma-ts7450/ and really pleased with it, very smooth setup and happy with quality. Got a decent deal on Black Friday so can't grumble.

Am I missing somethig here? It's a Laser printer, it says it in the specs on their website.

I'm not judging which is better, just wondering why multiple people were saying it was an inkjet when it is clearly a laser!

So it's an inkjet?

I called a couple of local places yesterday and one is a Brother rep and the other a Canon rep, so at least if it breaks they can look to repair. The retail places want more than buying online but I think its worth it as at present I cant even scan anything, which kind of stops me producing work in my tracks.

Currently choice between M1127C Cannon or 9570 Brother

FUCK

put simply each replacement cartridge is about 80% of the price of the printer

both seem a bit of a muchness but the Brother appears to be cheaper on it, but not by much

I am now the proud owner of a Brother MFC 9570.

Its brilliant how these days connecting it to the laptop takes seconds.

Thanks for everyones comments.
