Hi Steven My personal preference for colour inkjet is Epson then Canon Have lots of clients with them and they work extremely well. (I've got an Epson Tx810FW at home). Marlene - if only doing black and white printing may be better to consider Laser. Cheaper running costs long term. Brother have a great range that just work and just last. Can't find the wamug archive link direct to it but have mentioned more details previously in archives from me, Ronni and others. (just on road so bit hard to get to it). But they would be more recommendations based on what I've sold and worked with over the last 9+ years. Kind regards Daniel (who hopes this gets delivered due to vodafone iPhone issues).
