Hi All.
I am looking for a colour printer which is compact, portable, economical to run.
This for primary / secondary school with minimum printing.
Look forward to some recommendations
Note : reading some reviews it seems inkjet is expensive from ink perspective with limited printing reqts compared to laser. Is it true ?
Thanks
Define economical. There's a trade-off between upfront and ongoing costs.
You could potentially go out and buy a cheapo inkjet printer from BigW for $19 and it will be fine if you just want to print a few things off. It won't make any sense to get more ink for it, so you'll probably just throw it out and get a new one the next time you want to print something.
Or the other option is that you go for a colour laser. The decent models go for around $200 and if you're not printing much, the toner will last forever. I'd imagine you'd be easily getting over a year given how little you said you'll be printing.
Personally, I'd go for the second option.
