It's about time to retire my current Lexmark laser printer, scanner , copier

Anybody bought recently and have some recommendation or know of any decent deals at the minute?

The only specifics is that it needs to be able to print, scan & copy. Not fussed about make or wether it's usb cabled or wifi.

Thanks in advance

Xerox Phaser range. I used to have a big press and moved to a tiny one and its actually very good considering the £75 price and footprint.

What Phaser have you got Toby. I have a 6100N and whilst it still prints OK the LCD display and all the LEDs have packed up. Fine whilst its working but a real bugger to find out whats wrong when it just stops !!!!

Well having said that mine has a fuser problem or its the paper?

For £70 they are almost consumables over 2-3 years as its cheaper to change the printer and keep the old one for parts.

Exactly why I'm looking at getting a new printer as it's roughly the same price to change the toners as it is to buy a new printer!

Try the better phaser range as that will last for much longer and you can get cheap consumables from people on contract that over order and sell on bay. I used to sell all the toner and parts that I did not need.

It's worth checking the printing capacity of the cartridge supplied with the new printer, they are frequently considerably less than the capacity of a replacement cartridge.
