Printer choice
I'm wondering about what printer/scanner to buy. We have an old inkjet printer that we find a bit expensive to run. At the same time our scanner has died, so it seems logical to buy a printer scanner combo. The printer only need to be B&W as plain text is 90%++ of our printing and we still have the colour inkjet if needed.
I had though I'd get a laser as they are supposed to be cheaper to run but when I got to the store things weren't that simple. First prices ranged from <$100 to >$400 with the lasers towards the upper end (of course). You can buy a bit of ink for $300. Then there is the claim by some inkjet makers that their products are actually cheaper to run than laser printers.
Rather than wade through a mire of market research I though some of the good folk on IIS may already know the facts.
thanks,
David
