You're thinking of buying a new printer?

One of the questions we are asked to arrive at my constant Stinkyink Towers: "I'm thinking of buying a new printer, what do you recommend?" I think that we are an honest opinion on this, then we can not sell printers – only consumption, and we have the printers here to feed! These are all personal opinions and are in no way intended to disparage or damage of any notoriety.

This is not an easy question to answer because there are so many options out there, so that we can firstbegin to answer your question, we need to ask some questions.

What will you do for your printer:

Closely household tasks for children, etc.

To print high quality photos

Use for small offices – primary documents, but with some requirement for color

The office or commercial use – high-speed document

1. Household

Not easy to use and inexpensive to run, so you can afford to print school projects and loads the Web pageInformation in it, without a new loan. Do not buy HP, Lexmark and Dell. These all manufacturers to use a cartridge with a built-in print head, but also a method used to set three different colors in one cartridge – when there is a color, the cartridge is completed. Epson, Canon and Brother imagine a technology where the print head built into the printer, as you just replace a color ink tanks – a much better chance now.These days, I would recommend a multifunction device, a printer, who is also a scanner, copier and printer in one person. Basically a machine files from your PC for printing, but you can copy your files back to your PC and photo scanning of documents when you need it. All major manufacturers offer these types of machines such costs are very competitive, this is what you need to know the cost of purchase and with them.

If youLook at the cost of ink cartridges for the immediate, what jumps out is refilled, the difference in price between the original and compatible cartridges o. Filled home use compatibility / cartridges are more than adequate for its purpose. Compatible cartridges from other manufacturers, and are usually much less than the original manufacturer cartridges.

So we need a multi-function printers from Epson, Canon, Brother, and now we are at home for staffPreference. To increase the ease of use and easy access to ink cartridges at competitive prices, Brother products I personally recommend – my daughter is a university and I am very pleased with the results.

This application meets the requirements of No 3 – Small Office / Home Office, a unit in a small footprint that meet the three requirements – Brother wins again, in my opinion.

So I have the options 1 to 3, the next number 2 photos of the press;

There are twodifferent types of photo printers, Canon, Samsung and Kodak produce 4 x 6? Photo printers use a technology called gang of sublimation. This produces a very high quality print that is equally or better than those produced by traditional silver halide prints photo printing shops, etc. are to the disadvantage that you can define the information that you can print, and can also be expensive, limited.

Your second option is an ink jet printer. To print high quality photos, pleaseat least six colors, and some of the printers Top End now, with a maximum of 10 cartridges of different color. These colors and good photo quality inkjet paper, the output that you can get stunning, and in many cases better than traditional methods for image output. Which one to choose is a question very difficult, and probably is more to your personal preferences and the thickness of the portfolio than anything else. Personally, I prefer the new CanonPIXMA printers, the results with their new ChromaLife 100 colors is a convincing way, the colors are guaranteed up to 100 years (with some limitations) And using semiconductor technology for the production of printheads, the printer can produce results excellent at all times.

Finally, Section 4, the office.

With the advent of color laser printer for less than 200 euros, there is no argument – go for a color laser. These days, small footprint, network-capable and usuallytoner is used to deliver chemical, a toner, the results are excellent. Will be printed faster than an inkjet printer is the cost per page is less than an inkjet printer, and are much more robust than an inkjet printer. We also offer compatible toner cartridges for a wide range of laser toner, so that operating costs are significantly reduced. The biggest problem we found with these printers here Stinkyink Towers, was a little 'uncomfortable about the quality of the paper, we setthrough them. You can not get away with the cheapest 80g / m copy paper, but still a LaserJet Paper 80 g / m², which runs through all our machines are very happy and gives us no problems. If you can afford to look at multifunction machines, again up to 4 applications in a small (ish) seat. We have an HP MFP (Multi Function Printer), a fax, network, printer, scanner and copier into one unit, and it is also reasonable for the performance

It can be concluded that thego home / small office, you use a Brother multi-function inkjet printers, low cost and easy to use and go forward. High Quality Photo Printing, will do very badly with the new Canon Pixma printers for office use, and, finally, a color laser MFP or

I hope that this distillation of our collective knowledge will be used, please, if you need more information, contact free, please call.
