Ottawa Canada Dear Penny:
If you want an ink print printer, may I respectfully recommend the HP LaserJet family of printers. Lasers generally cost less per page printed, make a permanent image which won't smudge if it gets damp or your hands get moist from sweat etc and you can get colour or duplexing models. Duplexing is where the printer prints on both sides of the sheet of paper. In your example, a short 20 line document won't benefit much from duplexing, but you really save bulk when printing longer documents, such as essays, projects etc. You do save on paper expense, but paper is pretty cheap these days so that isn't the major advantage. I find the real advantage of duplexing is in bulk and postage required say to send a 14 page document in the mail instead of a 28 page document. For a blind person, the really big advantage of a laser printer is it doesn't have ink nozzles to clog up if you don't use it regularly. Inkjet printers need to be used every week or so to keep their ink flowing correctly. Brian -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Free Edition.
