    Was going to say Hp, but that one you got has digital camera dock? Thats the way to go. I always look at ink replacement cost's before I buy tho.

    Aren't those statements contradictory?

    IMHO, HP printers are the best, but Epson does come close.

    I have two HP printers I just find you get good quaility for the price. Canon has cheaper ink cartriges tho. I mean come on its almost cheaper to buy a new printer than replace some ink packs.
    And those refill kits are crap too&#33;
    HP deskjet 3320 &#036;89.00 canadian . Black = &#036; 28.00 & color =&#036; 36.00 = &#036; 64.00
    you be the judge.

    yeah my printer when i bought it was like probably about 200, and the ink is &#036;40 black, &#036;45 color my friend&#39;s printer was like 90bucks and its quality is much better but the ink is also about 40bucks so he could just buy a new printer when the ink runs out if he wants too.

    mine is an hp deskjet 697c, i think his is a canon something.

    What do you want to print?

    Black text only?
    Color?
    Photos?


    Did you want a multifuction unit with built-in scanner?

    I just bought a pair of epson-compatible chipped cartridges (black & colour) for £8. That&#39;s about &#036;19 Canadian, &#036;14 US.

    Compatible HP carts (which are actually refills) cost about £36 per pair which is &#036;85 Canadian, &#036;63 US.

    That&#39;s what I meant by contradictory when you said HP and ink replacement cost.
