What kind of printer do you have and why?

I only buy HP printers because I have had problems with other brands. Yes, the cost of using HP cartridge is annoying, but there too, after using refilled cartridges and ruining the printheads on one HP I decided not to try that any more. I do buy new cartridges cheaper on occasion, but over time I have concluded that the new HP cartridges last longer and are less trouble so I just eat the expense and am thankful to have good reliable printers that work. Some of the HP printers have more expensive cartridges than others, and that is one thing I consider when looking at the price of a new printer. I might pay a bit more to get a printer that uses cartridges that more widely used and therefore cheaper than others. I do remember when ink cartridges cost more than a tank of gas, though. Now it is the other way around.

My printer I have today is HP inkjet. I have as a package when I buy the computer. So I no longer have any choice but to keep it. Its also ok because its inkjectable so its refillable but its expensive sometimes I cant afford it.

I also have the HP Deskjet and it's an All-in-One thing. About the thing you were told that you can only refill it once, don't believe it, I have refilled the last cartridge for years before I had to buy a new one. I bought a new one because I mistakenly refilled red to the yellow port (yeah, I know!). It didn't really lack the quality since refilling, the only thing that matters is that you get good refilling inks. It's good too if you'd allow a company to refill for you once a year or so because they have that special machine that pumps pressure to the cartridge causing the bad ink to come out. I don't know about you but here in my country we have unlimited ink in big cartridges (about 10x the size of your ordinary cartridge) and should you need to print a lot in a year, that'll be a great help. But it doesn't work on our type of printer because the tubes would hinder the head movement (for HP printers) but for Epson and Canon printers, it works well. As for quality, I think nothing could outdo laser printers in that category. You'll easily fall in love with the images it prints, but well the machine and the toner just costs more than one could really afford - well unless you're doing business with it though.

We have one of those all in one HP printers. It actually belongs to my brother but he wasn't using it so my sister and I took it. He got it for free. It came with the PC bundle he ordered. The price for the ink isn't too bad either. It's a lot cheaper than what we were paying when we had a Lexmark printer. It runs us around $30 for the black/color combo pack. We go through, maybe, three of those a year.

We used to have an HP Deskjet here at my work and we refill the cartridges by ourselves. We buy a refill kit from a supply shop and we inject the ink into the cartridge. But those cartridges don't last long if it were injected for several times so we have to buy new cartridges from time to time. We recently bought a Canon Printer which has a Continuous Ink Supply System. Continuous Ink Supply System has the cartridges connected by hoses to ink tanks located outside of the printer. I think it is easier to refill because you don't have to take out the cartridges to refill them, you just put the refill inks in the tank when it is exhausted. I think most printers that support CISS are Canon and Epson, I have seen HP printers with CISS but most of the cartridges get clogged as they say. find Epson or Canon printers that support CISS. It's good!

i am using Canon Mx700 and why i choose it because this one has many function that is really useful for me , with normal function like print , scan , or more like fax , wireless ,i think if we buy the cheap printer so later we will waist more to buy the ink , cheaper printer ink is more costly than expensive one so make your wisely decision .
