    Hi all

    I know there's probably been loads of threads on this topic, so apologies for adding another but I would be grateful if anyone could please recommend a home printer for me as I am completely clueless.

    I'm looking for a wifi printer which prints in black & white and colour. It really won't get a lot of use - just printing off boarding passes, tickets, etc. If I have a lot of printing to do I can probably do it in work. I probably won't be looking to use if for printing photos either. Although if someone could recommend a good printer that could do that, it would be great.

    Where I'm getting confused is I want to buy a printer where the ink doesn't work out more expensive than the printer itself.

    Thanks in advance.

    This is what your looking for HP Photosmart B110a
    Got one the other week and its great and an easy wifi install. Great value for money.
    It even has its own email address so you can email it from anywhere and it will print out files attached. You can choose to print in greyscale/black by selecting that in the print property settings.
    You get a set of toners with it(CMYK) which should last you a while and you can keep an eye on your toner levels by viewing them on its own webpage(type the printers IP address into your browser). Prints out colour photos on photo paper at a very high standard. You get some 6x4 photo paper samples.

    Reading reviews on Amazon many people reccomend not to install the CD driver that comes with it because its a drag on your resources and slows the pc down because of unnecessary add on content. Instead download the basic driver from the hp website which is what i did.
