The choice of printer is up to you. I've used both Epson and HP and find
them both equally good. Cartridges are the bug bear though. I recently
went to the Blank Disc Shop, www.blankdiscshop.com and find they now do
replacement cartridges at a price I just couldn't believe. I needed some
Epson C86 replacements and the colour ones were £0.72p each and the offer
was buy one and get one free. So for £7.11 including postage I had 6
cartridges which would have cost me £45 in the local supplier. I have
found they don't vary from the others in any using detail at all.
The HP 930 black cartridge in the local shop costs me in the area of £18
whereas the blank disc price is £6.72 plus postage so add other things
needed to absorb that. How they can do it for those prices I've no idea
but long may they do so.

Subject: [access-uk] Recommendations for new printer
Hi Folks,
I rarely use snail mail for sending letters these days but the need did
arise this morning. I typed out the letter and then, when I tried to
print it, my HP Deskjet 690C failed to do the job. I decided a long time
ago that when this happened, I'd scrap it and look for another one that
didn't cost an arm and a leg for replacement cartridges. Ideally, I'd
like one capable of producing good reproductions of the photographs my
wife takes with her digital camera. At present, she is getting them done
at Sainsbury's If anyone has recommendations, please can they pass them
on to me.
Best.
Robert.
