my computer was originally from essex LEA when i was at uni (I'm a dyslexic who spent most of her first year unable to walk properly due to back problems)...they wanted to give me a laptop and a lexmark all in one thingummy, but i requested that i have a desktop comp that i could begin to upgrade after the guarantee expired (*ahem* nobody mention the TV card I put in 3 weeks after getting the bugger!!) and any printer/scanner set up that didnt have the lexmark name to it. I got an HP printer, £300 a year for computer consumables while i was at uni, HP scanner which wasnt fantastic but did the job and I ended up with my PC which has seen me through 5 years of careful bodging and is lovingly known now as FrankenPC (I know I know, frankenstein was the doctor not the monster :p ). the printer and scanner i was given served me well until i went into a job involving high level image processing. I am proud to say that although my scanner was a gift from my darling hubby, I worked for the printer.
Lexmark are good printers though, despite the really expensive cartridges. plus, would you be able to get them refilled rather than buying nw ones?
