I am thinking about buying a new inkjet printer in the next few weeks because I am going to print my civil ceremony invites (ony 6), menu cards (100ish) and ceremony programs (100ish) at home plus some other small DIY stuff. I currently have an HP PSC 2210 all in one printer, but the ink colors dont look sharp, even with a new ink tank. I don't care if my next one is all in one, because i can keep the old one for using the scanner when i need to.

 

Can anybody recommend an inkjet printer that's not too expensive (I would like to keep it around $100 + or - $25)?

 

My only criteria other than price is that I don't want the kind of printer where there is only 1 color cartridge. I want something that has at least the 4 separate CMYK cartridges (makes for sharper colors, and can easily replace one hue when you run out instead of having to buy an all new cartridge even nif all the other colors in there are still not close to running out).

Maura I think this is the one we have

Buy an HP Officejet 6310 All-in-One Printer, Fax, Scanner, Copier (Q8061A#ABA) from HP

its an HP all in one (scanner, copier, printer, fax). It uses about 6 cartidges, two shades of pink, a yellow, two shades of blue and a black.

We have been really happy with it and I made all my wedding stuff on it.

i wish we had thought about this as well, but we got our HP all in one free with our computer so it didnt even cross our minds. now we run out of one, and the damn thing wont even let you print in grayscale!

wow that's a lot or cartridges, but the good thing is, it must save you from having to replace a lot at a time, since it's probably only 2 or 3 that get used the most. something for me to remember when our craps out!

my dad has a 6 cartridge inkjet for printing photos, and he only likes canon printers so he is pushing me to get a canon too. the one he currently wants next has 8 cartridges. the individual ink cartridges cost about $11-15 depending on which model you have. but for me since i plan on using a lot of blue, that mostly uses the cyan tank.

Oh that one is pretty nice Christine. Mine is ancient and prints like crap. Can you adjust the settings in the printer? You know how they have best, normal and draft??
