Good printers to buy?

I have used a lot of different HP printers and their products would be my first choice.  HP does have models that use separate color cartridges.  My office at work uses officejet 6700.  We also use a network laser printer HP4600 with separate color cartridges but they are very pricey (although they last longer)--probably more printer than you need for personal use.

We have 2 printers in our household now and they are both reliable and ink is comparable too.  One is a Cannon and the other an HP.  Old fashioned ink jet printers.  If your looking to cut costs grab a memory card (Ya probably already have one)  Many campuses have office stores not to far and they give students a discount on printing.  Also many of your professors will ask you to attach files rather printing actual papers... going green ya know.   Oh and another tip on saving $$$ for printer ink.  I learned this from working in the site to store department at wal-mart.  Pay-pal offers a debit card.  There were people that sold stuff on ebay and there profits went into there pay-pal account.  Wal-mart site to store accepts the pay-pal card so you can join other sites that pay with amazon $$$.  This could help you buy basic necessities while away too.

So I just went off to college and have a very basic printer and am thinking to ask for one for college my mom has a lazar printer that prints very fast and uses toner that is fairly cheap and lasts long its easy to use scans and copies too I was thinking one like that would be nice but only black and white. Then my stepmom has a wireless one more fancy dont need to plug in can print even from phone but that one im guessing would be more for ink trying to look at options anyone have good suggestions or a printer they just love id like one in between the two printers i explained

I have not ever used a wireless printer but if you print a lot the Lexmark printers have a program that when you buy there ink (5)from the website they will give you a free in of your choice.  I do believe they have wireless as well.
