You'll find this question answered many times already on the forum but in a nutshell the answer is Ricoh!

Ink prices are set by Sawgrass so you'll see little difference there when shopping around and this makes up the bulk of the printer purchase.
No point in sourcing a printer and inks seperate, buy them together and get the support.
Listawood have 10% off everything at the moment for premium members and BMS have a pointsback that gives you loyalty points towards future purchases.

Ive recently "upgraded" from Epson to Ricoh. Best move Ive done in a long time. Epson was forever clogging , even when I printed daily with it. The Ricoh I can leave and it will print even aftzer not being used after my two week holiday.

Ricoh and nothing else. Have a back up 3300 here that I had not used for three months. Turned it on the other day, wiped the dust off it and printed a couple of sheets. Printed perfect, so I turned it back off and left it to collect more dust.

Where to buy... BMS everyday for me. As well as the discount, points and the fact that they answer questions at silly hours on this site. If your delivery comes by pallet and like me you only have open fires in your house, you get free heating. Given the price of gas and electricity that could be more of a saving than the printer costs LOL!!!

Perhaps we need to point a big arrow at the search box with the words 'Please Use' or even make the search box ginormous so it cannot be missed lol
