I can't resist a bargain.

Apparently the two suppied cartridges aren't full capacity.

But it's a re-branded Lexmark so I'm sure we won't have trouble finding cheap replacement cartridges.

And it's only a tenner.

Cheers Wozza

Just put my order in

why not go and buy a second hand laser printer? I bought one last year for £50, had 1 spare toner , printing quality is much better than inkjet. get 5000+ sheets per toner.

The slip in your argument wozza is that its a lexmark, lexmark do not do cheap carts and no-one does cheap carts for them.

The printer is a bargain as it comes with the usb cable and some ink in the carts.

But under no cercs should anyone consider replacing the carts for them as there are printers out there that cost less than one lexmark cart (even the normal price for this printer)

They'll probably be a fair few sample cartridges on eBay though.

Ideal World TV have some company on that sell their own brand cartridges for Lexmarks - about half the price if I remember rightly - something like £25 for 1 black and 1 colour.

and I pay about £4 (that's colour and black for about £8) for a compat for an Epson photo quality printer. No contest really is it.

Lexmark sell printers cheap so they can make more out of the carts.

Cartridge World in London Road refill Lexmark cartridges at about 40% of the normal cost.

From another Forum I frequent:

Dell printer for £10. Are you happy?

Just received my printer which i ordeered last week for £9.99. Very disappointed to see that the cartridges included with this priter are tiny(labelled as trial pack) very disappointed as I only bought this printer for the ink purpose, so I dont have to buy cartridges for few months but I think Dell are clever than us. they wanted us to buy more of their own cartridges. when ordered It did not say that the cartridges included are only trial pack. Do you think it is worth complaining to their customer services to this rip off

I think that was misleading too. If anyone isn't happy, send it back.

Its the same with most if not all printers these days Bozza, like many other things the money is not made in selling the product, which is often done at a loss, but in the continued maintenance of the item. In this case ink carts, its the reason I never bought one and everyone knows if its cheap I buy in bulk (Like the twin set DECT phones from Argos for less than £14 a pair) bought 6 of those so far but don't own a single one as all of them have been sold on.

Thanks for the lesson Tim. I am fully aware which is why I didn't buy one, but was passing on someone else's comments...

And some put "From another Forum I frequent:" to cover their own embarrassment, bit like "a friend of mine" when they mean them.

So I tend too ignore those bits.

Sorry if this cause any offence boz.

Not at all - was from:

(where your phones have also been mentioned many times over)

 

[beorhthelm]

you get a printer for £9.99, which costs about twice that to manufacture, purely on the basis that you think your getting a bargin. Everyone knows they make the money on the ink, but complain when it arrives that there isnt much ink in the cartridge. SAKE.

"I think Dell are clever than us". Give the man a prize.
