krisannethimum Posted May 31, 2012 Share Posted May 31, 2012 I'm looking to buy a new printer and would like some recommendations. My budget, just approved by dh ;) is $200. I don't need a 3-in-1 version, just a good, reliable printer that hopefully lasts longer than 1 year and has reasonably priced ink. Is that too much to ask? :) Hopefully some of you have had some good experiences with printers, as I always seem to buy ones that don't last.

RoughCollie Posted May 31, 2012 Share Posted May 31, 2012 I have an Epson Workforce WP-4020, which I bought online from Epson for about $150. So far, after having Canon, Brother, and HP printers, this one hasn't frustrated me or quit working. I've had it for about 6 months, I think.

LaxMom Posted May 31, 2012 Share Posted May 31, 2012 We have a Samsung laser printer and a Brother 4-in-1. We bought the laser as a floor model <$100 and the inkjet as a clearance <$50. The laser is at least 5 years old, the inkjet is 2 or 3. The only issue I've had was that it was difficult to find the drivers for the laser when we got a new computer, since it's so old. I buy our ink and toner from Supermediastore.com. The toner is ~$30 (compared with over $80) and the ink is ~$15 for a full complement of cartridges. I have never had a problem with either.

kathkath Posted May 31, 2012 Share Posted May 31, 2012 Several years ago we bought an epson laser from Costco. I get cheap cartridges from meritline.com, something like 3/$75. I get over 1000 pages per toner cartridge. I thin printer was under $100 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
