my printer died! need a new one damit

[morg176]

hey all.

my canon mp800 died last week.
need a new printer, mostly b&w but the occasional colour too.
prob wont do much if any photo quality stuff except for the odd design

refillable ink necessary [or suggest alternative]
would prefer the standard CMYK, as apposed to 6 or so tanks nonsense you see in alot of the printers these days.

brand: dont care

the decision will be based on the cost of the ink [refillable]

thanks guys and gals, share the pain and opinions!

I bought a 3 in 1 Canon printer/scanner/copier from Dick Smith for about $70. Cartridges cost about $60 to replace but I buy the DIY refill packs which are half the price and fill about 4x the amount of cartridges.

Go to JB Hifi Wollongong, ask for Steve (In Cameras) - He'll sort you out.

almost a week ago, tired of salesmen who need to read the f* box, I bought a printer similar to the one I bought. canon mg5350 wireless. does the job. All good.

thanks for the input awesome people!

please include stories of woe when trying to find that peripheral or appliance!
