It seemed like a reasonable bargain.

1208487 2011-06-12 05:24:00 $59 - cheap!

How do you like it?

1208488 2011-06-12 05:46:00 Seems fine, I don't print a lot of stuff, but it will be useful for my purposes. It came with full cartridges too!
It's nice and shiney!

When the ink runs out just buy a new one.

1208491 2011-06-12 08:04:00 I see you have a scanner as well which is a bonus .

I looked at the Dick Smith site . I was curious about this feature;

DURABrite Ultra resin-coated pigment ink provides smudge, fade and water resistant prints .
I have had problems with Inkjet ink where it bleeds when wet . It appears that DURABrite ink does not wash off when printed onto envelopes for instant . This feature could be another bonus for you . I wish my Epson Stylus Photo R250 used DURABrite ink .

Read here about DURABrite ink ( . support . epson . com/pdf/sc88__/sc88__du . pdf" target="_blank">files . support . epson . com) .

1208492 2011-06-13 01:00:00 Given that the $59 printer comes with $99 of ink cartridges included it might pay to buy 3 of them, whip the cartridges out of two for your supplies, and flick the two extra printers off on TM as "Special - reduced to clear - $95 reserve (each) - inkless printers, be quick - only two remaining." It would make for fairly economical printing for you, if not quite so good for a couple of others. R2x1 (4628)

1208494 2011-06-13 01:24:00 $17.99 for the economy ones at Computer food. I wonder if they are a lower quality one?
