Need a printer

A couple months ago I bought an Epson ET-2980 to replace a previous Epson that I had for a very long time. I'm quite happy with it.
It uses Epson's SuperTank ink rather than cartridges which makes it a lot more economical in terms of consumables cost. It does duplex printing and copying in very nice color at reasonable speeds. Dependable wireless connectivity.
It should show up on sale periodically at the major office supply stores and on Amazon for about $230.
Important note: Epson's printers come in the box with a FULL supply of ink that will probably last you more than a year. Several other brands (HP in particular) come with a "starter" supply of ink and then you will need to spend another $50 to $70 a couple months later to get a regular sized ink supply. They do this so that they can advertise a low price on the printer. Beware of this if you are shopping based on price.
Hope this helps
