Now that I've sold my big printer (which cost a fortune in ink to start up) I'm looking for one that goes up to A4. Initial purchase price not an issue, but looking for something that doesn't take the piss in terms of the cost of replacement cartridges.

TIA

Is it worth getting one of the HP "instant ink" subscriptions?

I probably don't print enough for that, but thanks for drawing that to my attention. I think really with the amount that I do print it would probably be better for me to get it done commercially.

I think most of us in here have given up on photo printers as online printers are SO much cheaper and usually do next day delivery.

ETA I got 100 A3 posters printed for less +/- £30 delivered next day to NW Scotland. Also, Photobox regularly do silly discounts (it's their business model)... check out current prices (take 50% off for offer) https://www.photobox.co.uk/shop/prints
