Anyone know of a good printer bargain?  My HP710C has bitten the dust and I need a compact replacement.  :laugh:

I would go with either a Canon or Epson here (http://www.ebuyer.com/customer/products/index.html?rb=13838026117&action=UFNQcm9kdWN0U2VhcmNoUmVzdWx0cw==&subcat_uid=56&order=ASC&order_col=sell_price&show=stock&offset=0) as you can get good cheap cartridges for either of them.

I have to say that THIS ONE (http://www.ebuyer.com/customer/products/index.html?rb=13838798727&action=c2hvd19wcm9kdWN0X292ZXJ2aWV3&product_uid=63081) looks a bargain Cammy!!

What happened to your Epson CX3600, Clive?  Mine is still going strong.  :|

Nowt wrong with that one Simon, but that is Mrs Clive's.  The master plan was to network the two computers together so I could use just one printer but sadly the plan failed.

Well, I have the Epsom C46, Clive, and although I rarely print photos, it is brilliant for printing Ordnance Survey Maps in 1:50000 and 1:25000 using Memory Map OS software.

The cartridges are dirt cheap too.  I buy compatables from my local commercial office supplies shop for less than £3.00 (colour) and £2.00 (black).
