I had our HP photosmart 3100 for a very long time and it decided that it cant do his job anymore and decided to retire after all of those expensive ink I spent on it.

Now I'm in need of a new printer. Im like a caveman in the world of printers so much had advance in short years.

Im sure there is someone out there who knows a lot about printers. Preferably I want something that is cheap on inks and wireless because many members of the family prints as well. Recently ive been eyeing on Kodak printers because ive heard their ink cartridges are cheap but unfortunate ive heard that they drink it like mad as well. Any good printer recomendations? thanks.

Good value Ink
Wireless
Not overprice
doesnt have those massive paper trays sticking out.

I was in your situation a few days ago. I'm glad to help you out although I do not know that much about printers.

USAFRet suggested me this printer and I just got it.

Good value ink - Haven't used it for a long period of time yet. However, according to USAFRet he's used it for 6 years now and all he's had to replace is his black toner cartridge. His color toner cartridges are still at like 60%.

Wireless - Yes it is wireless. I don't know how your internet/router or computer is but from my personal experience 2 seconds ago, it took me like 4 hours lol. If you need help though, I know the mistakes I made so I'll be glad to help you.

Not overprice - The printer is $200

Overall, decent quality prints. Nothing to tell everyone about. It is color and wireless plus according to USAFRet the toner cartridges last quite a while. If you do need to replace the black it is $50. Each of the color toners are $55.
