 Printers Again - zippy
I dislike inkjets, they cost a fortune to run if printing a lot and get clogged up.

Laser printers can be problematic as well, they like dry environments.

My eldest has the previous model colour laser to this one:

www.ebuyer.com/433141-dell-c1760nw-wireless-colour-laser-printer-210-41094

and has been using it since 2012 with no problems. Non oem toner is about £30 on Amazon and it appears to be good.

The Mrs had this one in the kitchen (don't ask):
www.amazon.co.uk/Dell-C1765NF-Multifunction-Colour-Printer/dp/B00AAWJC20

and it kept breaking down (it was a beast of a thing). It came with a free 3 year warranty and Dell swapped it out every time without question. It was eventually replaced by this one (free of charge by Dell):

www.amazon.co.uk/Dell-210-AEHD-DELL-Laser-Printers/dp/B00YBZE1M8/ref=dp_ob_title_ce

and it is much better and hasn't malfunctioned once.

It takes the same toners as the smaller one and is happy with compatibles.

I have a colour inkjet supplied by work and we print about the same number of pages (about 300 a month) and the inkjet costs at least £80 per month on ink when the laser costs £30 every two months.
