Need a printer...

...but don't know where to start! I don't do a lot of printing, and probably wouldn't use it for photos. I'd also like to be able to scan and copy. I've been using an Epson xp-432 but it's never been great (blurry, ink seems to dry up almost instantly, wifi only works intermittently). What I know about technology could probably be written on the head of a pin, so can anyone share their knowledge/ experience/ top tips please?

I have an Epson eco tank and find it excellent. Have recommended it to a few others during himw working lockdowns and they have been equally happy. It is more expensive to buy but ink refills are a lot more reasonable than cheaper units.

Thanks @Pucarbuile, that certainly looks a possibility. A certainty if no other suggestions Smile

I also have an Epson Eco tank. I don’t print much, but even with 3 kids doing schoolwork at home, I have not had to buy a second set of inks

@Pucarbuile and @AuditAngel - can I ask which model you have? There seem to be a few different ones. Thanks

Would you believe, my printer didn't work yesterday! It was a very easy fix, simply running the clean nozzle function and all was sorted. Only the second time I've had to do it in about 5 years.

Anyway, I have the 2500 but that seems to be defunct. I think the closest one now is 2720.
