Reply to: wireless all in one printer

Kodak ESP 7. Don't know what the latest # is.

Fullfils requirements AFAIK and the ink is one of the cheapest outhere.


Edit. I see I'm too late. Must try harder next time.

After a bit of looking around and read reviews I opted for a Canon MX885

It was that order a Brother, however the main swinger for me was that I can get a full set of compatible canon inks for about £13

It should be here tomorrow.

I have a CANON MG6150, scan to pdf, copy, print, wireless. Very pleased with its performance.

Not uber cheap ink though.

I bought HP e-All-in-One Printer for £60 from Costco.

I buy third party packs for the Canon e.g

5 Inks PGI 520 CLI 521 for Canon MP620 630 980 CHIP | eBay

That's around 8 quid delivered for 5 cartridges.

Does that one fulfill the "cheap refills" requirement?

I have been using Canon MX870 which is wireless, scans to PDF (over wireless), does duplex copying and printing printing, fax, media card readers, LCD display and most important of all has very cheap refills. The last one is my number one criteria when buying a printer nowadays.

Refills for a lot of the "cheap to buy" printers cost more than the printers themselves and they often come with starter or trial cartridges that aren't full capacity.

Anyway the Canon is highly recommended.

depends how much you print, I think I print less than 5 sheets a month, bought this printer as it was cheaper than buying more cartridges for my old printer which was 3 years old and still on the originals.

looking on amazon there is a multipack for £15

Hewlett Packard HP 364 Ink Cartridge Combo-pack (SD534EE) Cyan/Magenta/Yellow/Black: Amazon.co.uk: Computers & Accessories

better phone up and check first, I have a feeling the £35 price tag was an effort to clear the stock!

Thanks all

I might have a drive over to staples at the weekend and see if I can pick one up.

I have that one (I think, dont remember the code but it was wireless, you could email the scans, etc) and it can scan to PDF. Bought it for £35 or £40 in Rymans...

just checked this myself and as long as you select scan document (not scan picture) then you do get a pdf output option

Definitely go for HP, I have had several brands over the years and HP has always been by far the best I've had both ink-jet and laser.

Cheers space cadet,

can you scan to pdf ?

And can you scan over the wireless ?

Not seen it in action but the Xerox WorkCentre 6015Ni (£282 inc VAT from Printerbase) looks pretty reasonable.

Thanks FaQ but this looks a little large as it will be going on the desk.
