Low cost ink replacement is a palindrome, Gerry.
I have or have had as many as 6 printers connected to my PCs, because of
my work, but nowadays, I rarely print my manuals - I supply them
elctronically. I have looked at printers and ink a lot over the years
therefore.
I bought a printer (HP1000) from Staples 4 weeks ago for £19.99. It is
brilliant. Very simple - absolutely no buttons apart from an on/off
switch, fast and good quality for printing text and general graphics. I
don't print photos - Boots can do it far cheaper.
The printer replaces an HP5600 of which I once had two - excellent
machines which lasted about 9 yers before I gave one away as supernumery
last year, and the other one stopped accepting refilled cartridges about
2 months ago (but I suspect the cartridge refiller's stock of 56 and 57
cartridges were getting very tired after nine years of being recycled).
Of course replacement cartridges for the HP1000 will cost twice the cost
of the printer and more. As I said - a palindrome.
