1. Budget: £150-£250

2. Preferred brand: None, but used Dell for the last few years

3. Brands Not Preferred: None

4. How many pages do you print per day: 100 ish

5. Do you want your printer to perform other functions: Not necessary

6. Preferred website for printer: Usually use Amazon as good customer service

7. Do you want your printer to have WiFi capability: Just needs to be networked, not wifi

8. Do you want your printer to have full color or black and white: Prefer colour

9. How much do you currently spend on ink/toner: Too much, not sure. Just buy it when needed. Always use replica cartridges (IJTDirect)

10. Do you print high quality or high resolution documents or photographs: No. Just need colour for our invoices to keep the branding correct (just spent alot on re-branding and don't want to start making the logo black instead of purple)

11. Additional question is how much extra is colour compared to monochrome? is monochrome cheaper to run? Or will colour just use the small amounts of colour toner needed? As colour and black cartridges have been the same price in the past

Currently looking at a Dell B2360dn (monochrome) and a Brother HL-3150CDW

Is it worth spending a little extra and getting a Lexmark CS CS410dtn

Thanks in advance for your advice.
Hate printer shopping!!!! Too many salesmen that talk rubbish, grr

I'm confused. You say that you "need colour for our invoices . . .". Then you say further on that you're looking at a monochrome printer. If you need color, why are you looking at a monochrome printer? Or is color a "nice to have" feature rather than a "must have"?

Sorry for the confusion.
Was just looking at a monochrome printer as an option if it gave serious cost savings. But I think I talked myself into a colour one as I typed my question out

So forget the monochrome!
