Lusty Posted November 3, 2016 Report Share Posted November 3, 2016 I'm thinking of buying a printer and scanner. My budget is 3-5k and must be wireless/Bluetooth. Recommendations please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bust Posted November 3, 2016 Report Share Posted November 3, 2016 Forget about the printer. I'd be checking the cartridge prices. Always more expensive than the printer itself. HP or Brother are good. I have a Brother MFC - J65 100W which does it all. Prints and scans A3 or A4, card and flash drive reader and wireless.

My Penis is hungry Posted November 3, 2016 Report Share Posted November 3, 2016 Correct, I got an Epson recently because I could buy cheap legal cartridges for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coss Posted November 3, 2016 Report Share Posted November 3, 2016 I got a $20 HP, real simple but good inkjet, cartridges are $40 I was given a near new Canon, much better printer millions of features, cartridges $6 a set. That being said, the HP was doddle to set up. I use it scan and then email docs, don't print much these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baa99 Posted November 4, 2016 Report Share Posted November 4, 2016 I recently got a Brother laser with duplex functionality. I like it better than the ink jets. I realized, I rarely used color printing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Specialist Posted November 5, 2016 Report Share Posted November 5, 2016 When my old Canon inkjet failed, I replaced it with an Epson XP-630 combo: scanner/printer/copier. I like everything about it EXCEPT the internal paper trays. The Canon had a external feed that was a lot easier to load. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unit731 Posted November 6, 2016 Report Share Posted November 6, 2016 Other options to think about. How does the paper feed. Which side the controls are on. Size or space taken up can be a consideration. And as stated above - the cost of ink cartridges. And how many ink cartridges. I have an Epson that takes 6 cartridges. That one is a pain to pay and replace cartridges. I got that one for photographs though. I recently got a new HP Envy. It keeps turning itself off for energy savings. And I forget to turn it on when printing. There is a menu screen - not sure if I can set it to stay on all of the time. But then I would be an energy waister or waster.
