As the title says, i realy need a printer, i have had a few PC's over the years but never had a printer.

1st
im on a budget of about 80 english pounds, thats about $160

2nd
it doesnt have to be great at printing HQ photos (although that would be nice) i will mostly be using it to print out good quality DVD and CD covers.

3rd
it has to be quite small. im limited for space so i dont want one thats going to be huge!

4th
it would be great to go with a brand that dont charge huge prices for there ink cartridges

they are the 4 main points i would like to stick to, however i am flexable. i have looked on the net at printers for a few weeks now and i have to say, the ammount of different ones out there is mind boggling, :confused: i just cant make my mind up, so any help from you guys wolud be great.
please bare in mind that any printers you suggest have to be avalible in the UK. :D

so... suggestions please.
 
Hi I use an EPSON c62 with compatible inks available for about 1 to 2 quid a pop very nice quality it seems to be discontinued. but the smaller c48 is still available try a search for the printer and some good compatible cartridges, EWOC based out of glasgow do some very cheap deals on the cartridges for mine.

SPIKE
 
ok had a good look at that EPSON c48 and i think its a little cheap, 40 pounds dilivered, i think i would rather pay a little more for a better quality printer but good start.

the budget is ony a guide, i can go up if needed but not much ;)

any more? perhaps some tech heads may want to suggest a few printers because good experiences?? :)

i can feel the money burning a hole in my pocket right now! :eek:
 
Save up for a color laser. It will save you $$$ when you buy toner instead of ink. Dell has some low priced color lasers, especially when you pair it up with some of their coupons...
