    Hey all, i'm in college (ie a poor student :() and need a printer that prints both black and white and in colour. i'd like to get something that is fairly compact cos i'd be carrying it around a bit and can't be lugging around a bulky one. another thing, and prob the most important, is that the ink would be cheap to get cos i'll be using a fair bit of it. i wouldn't mind paying a little more for the printer initially if it meant making a saving on the ink in the long run. i know i'm asking for alot but any suggestions would really be appreciated. Thanks.

    My advice would be to go for an Epson or Canon one. Reason is that the ink refills are relatively cheap and compatible cartridges are widely available. The All-in-One printers are too big to be lugging around.Have a look at Amazon.co.uk.

    Hi. I'm looking for a printer that can scan and copy. Anyone know how to advise as to what is best buy?? I've looked at the HP 1050. Can't see if it has OCR as I would like to be able to edit scanned items if it were possible.
