Printers?

[budec]

I need a printer for school, mostly just printing text (word documents, spreadsheets, etc).

What's a good printer? I want something that prints fairly quickly and most importantly: the ink doesn't cost a forture (I looked at some printers and it was like $35 bucks for one ink cart! ). I would rather pay more upfront for a good printer, then get nickeled and dimed on ink cart costs.

If you need a good printer for text only, look into a laser. HP has some around $100 that are good. If you want to do pictures as well as text, look into a good all-in-one. The newer HP 3210's are nice, but if more on a budget, the 1600 series is good as well.

I use a samsung ML 2010 laser, works like a dream, nabbed it for $35 bucks after rebate when newegg did a special on it. It printed over a 1,000 pages now no problem.
