Digital BW, The Print

Megan, I once bought a Z22 to use in a motel room for documents and 
in my experience and opinion these printers are not worth the cost 
of ink for them even if purchased at a discount. I actually took the 
thing back and got a refund!

You can get an Epson R220 for less than $80 when buying it solo and 
have a really good printer that also prints on CD's and DVD's. And I 
just got an R220 at Comp USA at the same time I bought a Computer 
(and there are similar deals when buying digital cameras) and after 
rebates it cost me $30 - less than the cost of the included carts!  
If you buy certain Nikon digital cameras it is free and with other 
digital camersa $50.

Epson also makes some combined scanners/printers, but I must admit 
I've had no direct experience with them - I can't imagine, however, 
that they're not better than the Lexmarks.

One night of eating beans should cover the difference between a 
really good Epson and an, at best, mediocre Lexmark -  I'm sure your 
work is worth it...Michael Vendrell

inkjet refills) would be much cheaper than what I would buy for my 
current printer.
