lexmark scanner/printer at the moment. till i throw it out the window next time the ink runs out.. it drinks ink & costs a fortune to replace them.

going back to either Epson or Canon soon.

I have a mutoh rj-6100 too.. which is great but at £90 per colour (cmyk) it ain't cheap to use.. and no i didn't buy the printer lol (it was acquired from 1 of my old jobs)

I have a Hp deskjet 812C that I do most of my printing on. (one to five pages) However I have a number of different printers that I can use for different jobs, including a Okadata 27pin dot matrix, I use it wit fan fold paper when I am working Radio Teletype.
Some dream of success, while others wake up and work for it.

I can't remember the last time I did a printout that wasn't work related.... the last printer I had was about 1989 - a Star LC10 if I remember

Just not much need for them - although I am looking for a photo printer soon

Guess I'm glad to have an inkjet.
My printer is a HP Deskjet 970Cse Professional Series, about 6 years old. My mom bought it years ago to create double-sided brochures for a start-up business she was attempting at the time, & back then this thing was top of the line.

These days, it would be cheaper for me to buy another printer than to buy ink for this one.

Interesting question. If you look closely at any screen shots that I've posted in the past, you might be able to discern that I actually work for Lexmark. So it's probably no surprise to learn that I have 2 Lexmark printers at home. One is an inkjet (5150, I believe). This was one of those that the people in the know would say was a good printer (relatively speaking, of course). So I bought it years ago and have never had a problem with it. It's been great.

My other printer is a color laser (C524, I think, but I still think of it as it's code name). I didn't buy this one, it was a left over after it served it's purpose in one of our test labs. So when I got it, it had over 163,000 pages printed on it already! It's really the only one I ever use anymore (still prints fine too). The 5150 is kept around for scanning/copying and any specialty printing like t-shirts or something.

I think Lexmark is at the C534 generation now. They had a sale on the older 524 models some months back and so I bought one for a family member for $200. That was a fantastic deal for a brand new color laser that, in my experience, is as solid as a rock. It's small, fast (20 color and b/w pages per minute), reliable, and cheap (especially at that $200 price!).

The reality, however, is that I don't print much. Anything photo related gets done at Shutterfly.com. I've read people complaining about Shutterfly's quality, but they look great to me!

I am, of course, speaking as a fellow XOOPS user and not a representative of Lexmark. My views are my own.

An no, in spite of the recent disappointing financial announcements, I'm not worried about losing my job anytime soo....$%$^#@ -- Lost Carrier --
