Printers (slightly OT)
****ed off with Ebuyer and Lexmark. At the beginning of December my
cheap Brother mono laser had a toner leak inside. Changed the cartridge but still making messy prints, I was too busy to grovel around inside so I picked up a similar looking £100 Lexmark from Ebuyer (showing reasonable reviews on Amazon, but faster delivery from eBuyer). Six weeks on, the low capacity cartridge is out, at which point I find it seems to have a "chip" like inkjet ones, nothing third party available, and cartridge prices vary from £50 for 1300 pages to over £200 for 6k. And nothing with fast delivery. Seems to me Lexmark are taking the ****, Ebuyer too. I have had a Lexmark colour laser for a couple of years and that has been fine. I must have put about ten cartridges at less than £20 a time through the Brother. And a couple of replacement "drums". I've had various HP and Dell lasers over the past 20 years or so, and never had this sort of problem before. So be careful out there if you are in the market! |
