I have the hp officejet pro 9020 got it from ebay new for 100 US on an auction, it works perfect for my needs saw pricesmart selling it for 1900 , it's an all in one printer scan and can print via wifiredmanjp wrote:Looking for a good printer for the occasional printing at home. Doesn't have to be any heavy duty one as we might only print like 5-10 pages a week or so.
The last one I bought from pricemart was an HP ink advantage 3775 for I think about $300 but I guess I got what I paid for as it started giving problems on about a years time and now won't even recognize OEM ink cartridges from the same pricemart.
A good deskjet multifunction with scan print and copy would be enough but one that lasts for a few years.

After one year I just changed the original cartridge this weekend.
Cartridges most reasonable - $100 for 1 at PriceSmart. (Black and colour same price)
Super Tech has them for $115.00 each
Checked the Wizz recently and they were selling $165.00 for ONE.
Printer is now $495.00 at Wizz

My 7 year old Brother failed a few weeks ago and I needed a replacement printer asap.
Got a HP 6475 for $1100 from Wizz.
It's a multifunction, print, scan and copy. Only issue is that it does not accommodate legal size paper.
So far so good.

Throw anything at it and it will do it for you. Print, copy, scan, wireless, direct to usb printing, duplex, letter/legal etc.
I purchased one 2 years ago and it runs like brand new still. I print a lot and as of late I have been creating glossy digital photos with it using specialized paper.
IIRC, I paid $4k for it either at Wizz or CZone.
Like many of you all, I was completely fed up of buying disposable inkjet/cartridge printers. That couple of hundred dollars on a per annum basis and the frequency with which I had to procure cartridges was too much hassle and headache. So going laser jet saved me time and money.
Check vids on YouTube and you would see how fast these modern laser-jet prints. You’ll never go back inkjet or officejet again.

I've got a Canon (cant remember model), and refilling cartridges on my own. Yes, the quality may not be as good as the original, but most of my printing is text, so quality is not an issue.

Either there is a chip on the print cartridge or the printer/software records the serial number of previously used cartridges and refuses to print with them after a certain number of pages are printed. Reset procedures might work, blocking of certain pins with tape, etc. makes it very inconvenientfokhan_96 wrote:I'm amazed that more people don't refill there own printer cartridge.

Can't understand the ink problem

if u only print 15-20 pages per week is it still economical? considering the cost of replacement cartridges?
