What ever you choose, don't forget to look at the cost of the toner or
ink, companies like Lexmark sell you a nice printer at a low end price,
then get you on the back end with the cost of the toner or ink... In
some cases a cartridge will cost more than you paid for the printer...
Look at cost, yield and availability.

I consulted the same source when I bought a B&W laser and suggest that site to anyone with printer questions.Since my old Epson C86 has finally managed to clog up the print heads, I'm in the market for a replacement. I'd like to know what the people on this list are using for printers that are currently available, since we are using versions of CUPS and foomatic that are frozen, and any other issues or "gotchas" that you are aware of. For the replacement printer, I'm considering a color laser printer instead of the inkjets that I've been using, and I'm dithering back and forth over the question of direct-connect or networked printer. Suggestions, warnings, and horror stories are welcome. Thanks in advance. |
