| 474694 | 2006-07-30 05:04:00 | If u can spare another $70, u could get a Brother MFC-215C (www.dse.co.nz) It was $168, when I got it. But it's gone up $20. Not bad for a scanner/printer/scanner/fax and card reader onboard. It can also be flashed/updated with a program u get on the Brother site. |

| 474695 | 2006-07-30 05:33:00 | I would avoid the Epson printers which use the T0631-634 series of cartridges. They go through ink like mad - I'm up to my 5th black ink cartridge so far this year. | somebody (208) | ||
| 474696 | 2006-07-30 05:47:00 | Forget the Lexmarks. Thats like a Fujitsu HDD or an ECS MB. | pctek (84) | ||
| 474697 | 2006-07-30 19:56:00 | I have just done the same research to buy a printer. Here are my conclusions from reading reviews on the net.. Avoid brother, used lots of ink and made lots of ink spills. Epson are expensive for ink, and sometimes demand a new cartridge when the old one is not empty. Canon came out as the best value for me. www.noelleeming.co.nz And suprise suprise the cheapest near me at $99 was in Noel Lemmings You not only get a printer, but a scanner & photocopier as well! Aint technology amazing. So I bought one and I'm happy with it so far, good colors and good black. The 110 was missing something, I forget what, the 170 had a card reader that i didn't need. But the 150 seemed on the ball The MP150 allows you to produce quality colour prints, copies and scans at home. Fast. Print your photos directly from compatible digital cameras using PictBridge with no need for a computer. Outstanding value.

| 474698 | 2006-07-30 20:15:00 | Definately stay away from the cheaper Brother inkjet printers. Also, be careful with refilling your ink cartridges as this usually voids any warranty on the machine if the ink causes problems with the print head etc. The amount of machines that come to our shop for repair due to refilled ink cartridges failing or causing other problems is very high! |
