This question could have many different answers and resolutions, but in most cases you should just look for the cheapest printer with the cheapest available ink. Since most printers nowadays print with the same quality and similar speeds all that really matters these days is cost, features, and price of ink. Reliability is also no longer a limiting factor as modern printers won’t break for years. The way that the printer manufacturers really get you is with the cost of the ink. In some cases, the printer will even be cheaper than the ink, even if it includes ink. I have actually personally experienced this. Instead of buying ink cartridges for my printer, I just bought a printer that used the same ink, and saved about $5. This means that when you are choosing a printer, you should first look at which ink is cheaper and then choose a printer that uses that ink. Even if the printer is more expensive, you will save money in the long run. The other factor that you should consider is which features you will need. For example, do you need a built in scanner and/or fax? Do you want a wireless printer? Apart from these factors the only other think that you should consider is the price of the printer. Don’t go for an overly expensive printer, especially something over $100 if it is a just a printer for your home. Overall, just get the features you want and get a printer with cheap ink.
