Good printers to buy?
« on: September 14, 2013, 11:06:07 pm »
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've always been a fan of the HP All-in-One printers. Mine recently died -- after 11 years of service!! I got a 2512 to replace it, because I wanted the flatbed scanner/copier. I'm very happy with them. They're pretty reasonably priced at WalMart

I bought  a Canon printer -- very nice.
the HP printer I bought didn't work .....waste of money.
Canon  has a great reputation!

Opinions will be all over the place when you ask about computer related hardware, certainly there are folks that have good and bad experience with EVERY brand!! Best thing I can suggest is to go online to places like cnet.com and pcworld.com, etc. and seek answers in their product review sections. Often these places cover considerations that most folks don't really think about when shopping.

Best of luck!! ;D

I have a HP deskjet 2512 and it's pretty good. No problems with it at all.

I'd have to go with hp too. Cannon if you want to print photos.

One of the many advantages I have found to use a Cannon Printer is that they are one of the few top of the line printers that has multpe color ink cartridges.  which mean if you run out of red you just replace the red not the whole color.  And if your only interested in printing black and white than you won't be using the color cartidges up as much.

I have the Cannon 3 in 1.  I love it!  Costs under $30 at walmart, and it does everything, even photos.  I think it is the best for the price! :wave:

I have had good luck with both HP all in ones, and also have had good luck with canon printers.
If I had to buy again, I would lean to HP.
