Epson EcoTank ET-2850 Print/Scan/Copy Wi-Fi Ink Tank Printer (Used / Acceptable) £122.53 At Checkout @ Amazon Warehouse

I know it's more initial outlay for an eco tank printer, but the printing costs are very much cheaper than an inkjet cartridge printer, and you can use third party inks without a problem.
Other than laser printing, you won't find a more cost effective way of home printing. (edited)

I bought one of these in the last warehouse sale and the heads were worn out. It had printed over 8500 pages and was 18 months old (you can print the usage status). I complained to Amazon CS why they were selling faulty goods and sent it back.

Look at the details of the printer, seems to be a lot of scratches (although doesn't impact function) but also missing a cateridge (doesn't specify how many missing).

I have order one my self not sure how good or bad this things are as this is first time I am moving to tank. This is for kid for school use whose use is light and mostly b&w but occasionally she wants color but good quality so I was not 100 sure to go with laser color as they are not always good for color unless you pay a lot

Just adding my experience , got it delivered today,
the description of usage and condition is useless ,
I ordered one similar , didn’t say anything about the actual printer being used, only said the problems were scratches , missing cds , missing manual .
It came used and full of ink ?
When it arrived, it clearly has been used, tanks with various levels of ink inside.

The  thing is with these tanks when they have been previously used  ink ,
you don’t know how long they have been stood for , unused in the warehouse

correct me if I’m wrong but these need to have a full print once every month or so,
and some printers need to be kept on 24/7 , like a standby
Not to mention not knowing what actual ink is in the tanks ,
could be sublimation ink, normal ink, cheap ink etc.

these could be expensive fixes , ruin items or just break ,

I rang amazon and they apologised, but nothing else .
They didn’t seem to understand that I bought  wasn’t actually described correctly 
so just be wary , waiting to send it back Monday, and then the wait for a refund. Disappointed, but that’s the gamble I guess with stuff like this. 
And lessons learnt .

Thanks OP.. Just bought like new.
A WHICH BEST BUY.. Review attached.

I live my colour laser printer with scanner. Would never look back, 8 years on and still going strong. Don't have to worry about cleaning nozzles, ink drying or anything. Boom.

Are these better than HP?

Any advantage over cheap old laser printer ?

My ET2810 doesn’t have auto double side printing. Not sure is this one has it.
