It's usually the ink that ends up destroying the bargain printers. Are you planning of refilling the cartridges yourself? Or will you buy new cartridges everytime?
And guys, if you guys can give him suggestions about the ink also, that would be great.
The inkjet printers I have are out of production - but have dirt cheap cartridges at 2.50-3.00 each. I also have a color laser - which is somewhat expensive. Not really relevant to you considering you are looking for a budget printer.
