Smithson Posted February 13, 2009 Posted February 13, 2009 I'm looking for a new printer, the Epson I've got has done really well, but the paper feeder doesn't work anymore. Last time I went to Panthip they didn't have an Epsom. The cheapest one was a Brother, but apparently it doesn't have an ink cleaning feature, something I've used a lot with the Epsom. Can anyone recommend a cheap printer with ink tanks?
tigerbeer Posted February 14, 2009 Posted February 14, 2009 Canon M185 with Ink Tanks and ink included. 1880 + 500 baht. This is in Chiang Mai. IT Center near the Changpuak Superhighway Intersection. Go upstairs, turn right, and the first shop on the right. D-Dynamite First. Very happy with mine. Paper feeds perfectly.
GungaDin Posted February 14, 2009 Posted February 14, 2009 1880 + 500 baht. Hi TB, why the 2 prices? 1880 for the canon + 500 for the empty tanks?

GungaDin Posted February 14, 2009 Posted February 14, 2009 Thanks, I'm trying to find that make and model number in bkk. If you mean Epson, I can't find a M180 reference. I'm probably looking in the wrong spot. cheers gd
tigerbeer Posted February 14, 2009 Posted February 14, 2009 My apologies, its Canon Pixma MP145. sorry! TB
GungaDin Posted February 14, 2009 Posted February 14, 2009 Thanks TB, have printed any photos yet on quality photo paper? price is good
Smithson Posted February 16, 2009 Author Posted February 16, 2009 Thanks for the help, actually I was looking for one with a scanner/photocopier, forgot to mention that in the first post.

I bought the Canon last week from IT Plaza in Korat for 2400 plus they threw in some free,extra ink and photo paper. And a rather lovely lady offered to carry it to my car :0

angiud Posted February 18, 2009 Posted February 18, 2009 I have a Canon ip1880 with additional tanks (around 4000 baht with the modification) . After some days of use and non-use, the head went dry and need to be cleaned. This happens many time, until i decide to buy a new one. For my bulk printing now I have a 3 in 1 Brother DCP 145C. The good of the brother is that, due to the position of the inktanks, you can change it with a much bigger kind, without any modification, just plug and play. Im very happy with this printer, also if I don't need a scanner, but the copy function could be useful. The printing quality is fair, but my big old Canon IP5200 print better photos. But to print my menus, flyers and other stuff, is ok. Thumb up!
Smithson Posted February 18, 2009 Author Posted February 18, 2009 ^ They had that model also, but said it didn't have an ink cleaning feature. While I guessed this was because one wasn't necessary, I decided to stick with the Epson because I had good experience with the last one - close to two years printing dozens of pages everyday. I'd recommend ink tanks for anyone use printers on a daily basis.
