If you print in colour (school work, photos, documents with logos), an ink tank printer like the Epson EcoTank L3250 or HP Smart Tank is the cheapest to run: refill bottles print thousands of pages. If you print mostly black text in volume (offices, cyber cafés), a laser printer like the HP LaserJet M111/M15 is faster and doesn't dry out.
Key takeaways
- Colour + low cost per page: ink tank.
- Lots of black text: laser.
- All-in-one = print, scan and copy.
- Wi-Fi lets you print from phones.
- Ink tanks should be used regularly so heads don't dry.
