My printer that has served me for 3 years has suddenly died on me...

I've seen Cannon as well as HP's...

But which one is better? I'm not really that bothered abt the photo printing...

cannon not bad, but wat other function u need?

sbst275 SG

Copy... I think ink usage would also be a factor

martin_lim85 SG

cannon should have those 3in1 scan/copy and colour print printers. theres an IT show at suntec this month-end go take a look Smile

So long as it's not Brother.

HP ink usage are not that bad, only thing is that they cost a lot.

good thing about canon mp150, 160 180 is that when u change the ink rite u will be also changing a new print head.

so if u worry about ink opt for third party
or reuse the ink tank >>>u cant be printing ~150+ A4 + 4r photo then throw away the tank<<<

cos hardly i seen cases of spoild gold plate at the connector mostly is clogged head,paper jams and roller spoil.

Any one can recommend a 3 in 1 printer? Thinking of buying one in coming PC show.

3 in 1 meaning can print well, scan and copy.

by the way, am I right to say that Separate powder form cartridge is it better than normal ink carrtidge?

Bought a cheap Epson printer last time, the printing wasn't satisfying.

Canon's Pixma series not bad, HP's AIO also not bad...

Canon is individual ink cartridge system that you only need to replace the colour ink cartridge that runs out... For high reso photo printing, you can get the option of the photo cartridge alongside with the photo paper...

HP is 3-colour in one cartridge system, with printhead built-in... Only thing is the price for the ink cartridge is on a high side...

I have a canon 3-in-1 and I’m happy to use it

personally,with their "ink cleaning" that is done when the printer start up,i find the ink consumption kinda high Neutral
