My daughter make a plan in next payment of mylot she wants to purchase printer. She told me mom my projects printing is costly 10rs. per page and I paid total 500rs. only for printing charges so I need printer I know printer is not less costly.But I promised her with in 2 to 3 months I will purchased. I think if we have Computer then printer is also necessary because now printing charges is also increased. What you think if we have computer means printer should also purchased.

For a person who needs to print frequently.. it's true that taking copy by your own is cheaper than professional printers.. when I was student, I had printer.. it was working fine for 2-3 years.. now not working but now I don't need to print many things so I haven't bought new one..

Hi Fanta! You see if you daughter needs to take out prints on regular basis, then buying Printer becomes a necessity. If she is required to take print once in a while, then there is no use of buying a printer. Your daughter knows it well how many print out she will require say per day or per week. You could buy good quality Printer for around Rupees 2000/- onwards and if you want a scanner/photo-copier facility in your printer, the cost will increase.

You could get the cartridge re-filled in Rs.200/-. It is entirely up to you whether you want a laser printer or otherwise.

Any gadget regardless of the cost is important. I mean, you spent money on it, right? However, with regards to printers, it would be good if the unit is cost-efficient. I think they vary. Some have expensive inks which makes it more expensive to print. As to whether you need also a printer if you have a PC. It really depends whether you will do a lot of printing. If you rarely print stuff, I guess you don't need to buy yet. But personally, I'll buy. You never know if you need to print something.

Hi fanta.. Your daughter is right. Printing in DTP houses is really costly and she deserves a printer to save her money. I think you better should purchase a two in one, i mean scanner attached. Consult with experts. Cannon is best i feel. Have a nice time.

Hiiii shibu Woooooooo your number is 4444 great like 11.11.11 what the mystery behind this number tell me. Yes you are right printer can save the money because if we are doing the printing in our own printer then no 10rs per page is charged.

Fanta: Printing in Chennai seems to be very cheap. yes. per page Re1 only. Please ask your daughter to enquire about other places where she can get printing done at a lesser cost. It must be around Rs.2 only maximum. Unless we use printer regularly--buying printer is not advisable because the cartridge ink gets dried up quickly. Further cartridges cost Rs.1500 or so per set. I am not against your daughter. But in chennai it is cheaper to get printing done outside rather than having a printer at home. best wishes

Yes, a printer is very important especially if you have students in the house like your kids. It is very much useful and one purchase can save you a lot of money. Because printing services can cost a lot these day and when you sum it up with all the printing needed by your kids for school. The total will most likely be more than what one printer is worth.

good day to you fantabulus, it is not necessary to have a printer at the same time if you have your computer. as these two plays a different functions. the latter is more important than the former. although, it is a mechanical process that, if you have a computer, you will gonna need a printer soon. in this instance, it is indeed better to purchase soon a printer. especially now that your daughter will be needing it eventually. after all, both of that unit is important, as they are correlate to each other.

if you have some one else in the family who also needs the same way then you can opt for one printer,and even a scanner.Or you can buy some thing whihc has printer and scanner. And you can do some buxiness also with that,can have a board saying xerox and printing and scan.As only for your daughter projects investing thousands and after some time it would become idle if she not any more requires. So should see that the investment we did should get some thign in return so that we can recover the money,and make a good use of the machine. Have a nice time.

How nice of your daughter to save her next payment for a printer. At least she can see something tangible with what she has earned from Mylot. Yes, for students a printer is very important. Projects and researches required could be done through computer which would in turn needs to be printed, hence the necessity of printer.

Yes she is really great still not get payment but make a plan for needy goods. Yes I also feel own printer is better than giving the print charges to others.

Yes fanta dear, printer is also important. We are also planning on buying a printer but as of now my earnings from mylot alone could not cover paying for the printer cost. It's really expensive, but anyway it's my brother who wants to purchase one not me If you purchase a printer, it will really be useful and saves money on printing cost that your daughter normally needs since she's still studying and there's normally school projects. She also saves time and money going out.

Hiii dear Hot Potato You are right only earning from mylot is not cover the payment of printer. But I will purchase for her and withdrawal the money from my business. Because she paid more printing charges.

It definitely is. Specially for student who needs to print lots of paper works. If you purchase a printer for her, she need not to pay for the printing fee outside and you willll save in the long run since inks are becoming more and more inexpensive. There are also inks that are generic. You may want to use it after you warranty expires since after 1 year even if your printer got damage you will no longer be covered by warranty unless you extend it.

I think printer also important like computer. Maybe you don't use it everyday like your PC / Computer / Laptop. But, printer really make us save our money. I don't have printer before, so when i want printing something, i go to printing rent. And, i must pay more money other than i have my printer.

You do not need to use a computer long before you find plenty of uses for a printer. We may not have to print every day, but it can be handy for many things. When watching costs, it is good to be careful not to print more than necessary. Printers are not very expensive, but the cartridges that come with those printers are limited in size. Printers that are less costly per page printed tend to be more expensive. I think you should try to get one of the inexpensive printers if you can.

Hiii funny fanta if your daughter required frequently printing then purchase printer is good. Because if we are printing in our own printer then printing charges is only 1 Rs. but she is paying 10 Rs. per page it is very high rate. So own printer is good.

It solely depends on what you are doing. In case of your daughter, I would recommend you to buy a printer. It is more economical and time saving. Otherwise, it is only for use like online work then there is no need of buying a printer.

I think it is not better to buy a printer. I tell so because, A printer does not cost much but the Cartridges of a printer cost more. For my Hp printer Cartridges there is thousand five hundred rs which cost more. So i think it is better to have printing works from cafe .
