Recommendations for an All-In-One-Printer
I have around £80-£150 to spend.
Any particular manufacturer I should stick with? I really just want a decent printer for home/business. thanks |

Epson makes some very nice All-in-one printers as well as I believe Cannon.

Canon seems to offer decent documents with a lower cost of ink than Epson or others. If by All-in-one you're including scanner/copier functions, then HP is hard to beat in that category. But for just a color/b&w printer Canon is my choice. The new IP series units that fit your budget is the way to go.

I've been very pleased with my own HP units and the few I've installed for others. Never used a Canon or Espon, but I'm sure they make good units too.

It's hard to beat a HP in the lower end all-in-one market, but ink can get costly. If you can afford a Canon MP730, it uses 4 separate ink tanks, but the scanner is VERY slow (separate pass for each color).

All in one printer
I'm using a Lexmark X5150 at home and it does a decent job. Paid about $120 US for it.

I fell into the Lexmark trap too - I really liked it at first, then it stopped feeding well and Lexmark's support is terrible so far. However, I still have to compliment it on its speed - it can do a b/w copy faster than most copy machines.
I have no experience with other manufacturers, but I would not recommend Lexmark on account of their support. |
