Bog standard printing at your local store.

Seems it is easier and cheaper nowadays to buy a printer than replace an ink cartridge. Looking at £50 a time. I just don't print enough to warrant it.

None of the supermarkets / high street stores do bog standard A4 printing for a few pence.

I've found a print shop that will do it, at a cost, but the quality is far too good for simple stuff, hence the price.

My 'right this moment' problem.



There is a place that does this opposite where a friend lives in the UAE. They are focused on business printing, but you can just walk in and do this for about 10p / colour page. They are always busy and open 24 hours so it must be profitable :)


I bought a second hand laser printer for about 30 euros. When the cartridge is empty, I'm cheaper off buying a new second hand laser printer than replacing the cartridge - at least was my last thought.
