Seems like a good deal, I'm fed up with buying colour toners when I only print letters.
My current samsung was worth £99 and a set of ink is £150. If I hadnt got the printer free I would not have bought it.

Bought my Ricoh mono from Tesco last year, think it was £18 (SP201).
Then found out genuine toners were £40-£50. Managed to get a genuine toner at Argos clearance for £25.
Refills on the bay about £16, whether they are any good I don't know.
any recommendations for a colour printer with similar features to the above printer.
hopefully at a similar price as well.

The Ricoh 240DN is around £45. There have been a couple of deal posted on it over the last few months with loads of details. Physically much bigger than this though.
EDIT
Not wireless though, but if you can site it near a router/switch and connect it via ethernet, you can then print wirelessly to it.

My HP 1010 laserjet hasn't needed a toner change in 9 years. It's on the original starter one that came with it. I think it's magic or something.

Bought this for £29.99 back in March and according to the smart organizing monitor I have printed out 616 pages since, the toner level is still at no 5 which is what it was when I first got it, I wasn't expecting these many pages with so called starter toner. A bargain.

With warm and sunny spells before a fierce storm of paper later.
Bit useless when ink is so expensive compared to the cost of the printer, better off going for a quality HP or samsung

Cost per page is more important than the cost of toner compared to the printer. £22 for a 2600 page 3rd party toner seems decent vfm.

Printer IP on your router got changed - make setup once again, and make static ip for printer on router

How is this getting hot still when it is not a colour printer?
dvdphile to scottyjim
27 Jun 162#25
Because it's less than 30 quid for a laser printer! Hot in my opinion! Not everyone needs colour! :sunglasses:

Wow, you just did that - came out all... colourist in front of everyone. That's, like, brave, you know. I keep those thoughts in my head and would never say them out loud but I guess I'm still bad for thinking them. I hate myself for there still being houses out there that have mono printers. We can make a stand a and come together and put an end to this just by doing something stupid and redundant like throwing out all our stupid mono printers. Who stands with me?
Just say "Colour never, mono together" and we can fight this horror. Are you with me? (P.s. If you quote it and forget the comma then you've busted it for everyone, you mare! Mother of Mary, why do I bother!

Bought one of these on amazon warehouse deals last month for £30. It's decent enough for the money, good quality prints, wireless printing is good although it took me an hour to set it up! That's more my skills and poor instructions than the fault of the printer though.
If you aren't up to speed on sorting wireless settings, get in Google as it won't take half as long!
i read its less then 2p to print with samsung. will thia printer cost loess in longer term ?

I am soooo sick of inkjet printer heads packing up due to lack of use, so for the price of a new set of ink fills I'll give this a go!

Good luck setting it up!

Best thing about mono lasers is that the toner cost just shy of the price of the actual printer..... So you just buy a brand new one altogether.

Just set mine up with windows 10 running wirelessly thanks to the chap that posted set up tips on the Q&A page on Amazon. Very happy so far!

Instructions suitable for a Phd in Networks, but I got it to work wirelessly in the end!
Nice little printer, footprint is a bit larger than expected, works well. Thanks OP

Got one ordered lunch time here the next morning, very pleased no more dried up inks. What a great printer and price. Quality printing just got to set up the wifi now.

£24 is a lot better than the:
40 odd quids for a black toner for my samsung c1810w...
Which stops working when the other colours run out
which uses the other colours even if only printing in black and white.
I can see why the samsung was a free gift with orders over a certain amount at viking.

Hopefully this 213w will be a lot cheaper to run.
