Long-lasting printer Q: | Do you have any suggestions for a reasonably priced wireless printer that will not run out of ink after 50 pages? Would an inkjet printer be better in the long run and what brand? | A: | I print my radio scripts and notes every week, so that would drive me bonkers. It's the reason I've used Epson EcoTank printers for so long. They have big, easy-to-fill tanks that come with a ridiculous amount of ink. We all know the worst part of owning a printer are the expensive ink cartridges, hence my love for the EcoTank. The quality is fabulous, and you get thousands of prints before you ever need to refill. Add the Epson EcoTank to your online shopping list at Best Buy, Office Depot, Office Max, Staples and at Epson.com/EcoTankKim. |
