Got at this price and is a no brainer. Comes with a full xl set of ink and compatible ink pence per cartridge. If it lasts a year will still have been worth it. Official ink alone around £30 a set.

So if I buy this printer I will get ink included as well?
Because it doesn't mention that and there's a bit on there saying to buy the ink as well for £40?

...a couple of years before I got frustrated with the ink cartridges constantly drying up between uses. Good price for regular use perhaps. Bur colour lasers are getting cheaper now.

Had the xp625 and the first lasted 2 weeks or so. The last one died just after the 12 months.

This is the problem with Epson printers I have loads of them all fail just after the year. But in all fairness i have never paid more than 50 and it has saved me due to the cheap compatible cartridges. Agian yes the inks do dry up but just put new inks and never over order on inks. I usally buy 2 sets a time works out more but you always have fresh set of inks. Don't be fooled buying 20 30 inks from ebay sellers thinking it will last jut buy the amount you need.

If the inks are sealed they shouldn't dry out before you actually use them in the printer, so you could buy a job lot to save money - or do you mean the printer may fail before you get chance to use the ink and so stuck with them?

Great printer, I got one the last time they were at this price at Amazon. But I got free delivery there. It adds £5.44 for delivery making the price £35.43 for the super saver 5 days option.
It included inks.
Inks are very cheap.

I was lucky enough to have a free next day delivery token. Worth a check if you haven't bought from ebuyer for a while.

This printer uses 18/18XL (Daisy) inks, so it has cheap compatibles. Don't buy any Epson that uses the new 29 (Strawberry) or Epson 33 (Orange) inks yet as there's no cheap compatibles.

Can you use this to print onto Viynl sticker paper ? Like eggshell stickers??

just logged intoned ebayer and come up with free shipping too. not used ebayer for a while now as stopped doing all my computer builds.
I currently have a Hp printer which I got extremely cheaper few years ago and now it's heads are showing there age when printing, and ink costs are almost as much as this printer (if I Buy XL), as it's very fussy about non genuine ink, sometimes will accept, sometime won't.

I was about to buy this but remembered I had a £25 very voucher so brought the model up for the same price :smiley:

I have a Very £25 voucher too, could you provide a link to the one you bought? Can't find it. Have seen a lesser model for £49.99. Thanks

Can anyone recommend decent compatible cartridges?
sadly no voucher for me. I wanted to buy two, for family gifts, but I am limited to one only.

Go through Flubit or bespoke offer to get it for less than 30 inclusive of delivery

If you use flubit or bespoke offer what happens if I need to return the item? Never used anything like that before.

Are there any compatibles that also show how much is left? The problem with my HP is that compatible inks are temperamental and you don't know they're low until you print something that comes out poor.

You can see the ink levels from the screen on the printer and also from an app in your system tray within Windows.

Bought this the last time for the same price and I'm very happy with the printer.Had no problem with the ink drying out and you can get compatible ink from £6.99 for a full set . Cheap and good reviews from buyers. http://www.firstcallinks.co.uk/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=669
Never mind, found it! Think it takes different inks to this one though.

Even with cheap compatibles?

On hukd there was a similar Epson printer (http://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/epson-expression-home-xp-322-one-printer-with-wifi-lcd-screen-30-instore-asda-2288036) in the comments people were saying about these printers rejecting non Epson cartridges (maybe after an update), it's this true?

Thinking of getting one but need cheap inks.

I mean job lot inks even if they are vacume sealed in the small plastic seals. if you are storing them they can and in my experience have dried out so I would advise only ordering the amount you actually need for say 3 to 6 months then order more when you need them Bespoke uses sellers I think bespoke offer was from box limited. Iam sure you can sort warranty issues out with them if needed

Got an offer from fireworksdirect, are they ok?
Hotlipz
26 Oct 15#36
Didn't bother with Flubit or Bespoke as it changed to free delivery on ebuyer. Keep an eye out for free delivery if you're thinking of purchasing this.

Awesome just got £10 postage refunded.

Yes they are okay but you got free postage so it's okay

Just ordered mine free super delivery and gone for the compatible inks - we will see - never managed to get them to work before on Epson - ever hopeful! But for £4.93 for 2 full sets of XL and lots of Black ones its got to be worth a go!

Where did you buy your inks? I'm hoping compatible ones will work too.

Yes, with the ones that I linked on the other page.

Quidco seems to decline the cashback even though it tracks it etc.

That might be because the price on ebuyer had gone up now.
