Can anyone recommend the best place to buy a printer/scanner ? by best i mean cheapest. The last time i bought a printer it was an Epson that had the ink tanks you could refill instead of cartridges. That was 5 years ago and it cost around 9000php. Recently it has not been feeding the paper very well and leaving gaps in the print but last week it got so bad it was unusable so i took it to Ace logic for repair, they messaged me today that the repair would cost 6000php and the parts will take 2 to 3 months to come so it's a no brainer, better to buy a new one. Anyone recommend which brand they think is best ?
My printer is a brother Lazer printer, black and white. A tonner cartridge lasts a long time and the ink doesn't smear if it gets wet. It coughed out sheets at a pretty quick pace It was about 12k on Lazada.
I have a Brother DCP-T720DW, a 3 in 1 (print,copy,scan) that can connect wireless. It is not in the current line-up for Brother anymore (I've had mine for 3 years or so), but it's still available at some dealers, like here . I bought mine at DG Tech on Perdices Street, they may still have some also. Obviously it does depend a bit on your needs what your best choice would be, if you don't need colour, and don't need copy/scan functionality, then you should be able to find a cheaper option. Epson and HP are reliable brands also. I would definitely go for a laser printer though, the inkjet stuff is a nono. (cheap to buy but crazy expensive to refill).
