Important Printer Buying Tip: ALWAYS check for the ink cartridge prices before you purchase a
printer. Why? Sometimes cheaper printers end up costing more because its
ink cartridges may be way expensive. You should calculate the "cost of
ownership" per month. The math is simple: (number of prints per month)
times (cost of the cartridge) divided by (the yield of the cartridge).
Yield is the number of pages that can be printed with one particular
cartridge.
For example, assume that average home user prints 150 black pages per
month using a black cartridge that yields 200 pages and costs $28. The
monthly "cost of ownership" is (150 pages) x ($28) = $21
200 pages
Also look at the printer ink alternatives; besides the
original manufacturer's cartridges (OEMs), you may have the selection of
remanufactured cartridges, compatible ink cartridges, and ink refill kits.

PC WORLD.com Editors' review: WHAT'S HOT: The Stylus C60's blazing graphics speed
(1.4 ppm) tops that of all other recent ink jets except its bigger
sibling, the Stylus C80, and it prints text at the rapid clip of 5.6
ppm--an impressive rate for a $99 machine. WHAT'S NOT: Most of the C60's print results didn't
wow us: Text was marked with hatching along the edges and exhibited a
slight waver or wiggle; narrow parallel lines printed with a patchwork
pattern. WHAT ELSE: Color ink costs run high at 15 cents per
page. UPSHOT: The C60 won't win converts for most forms of
output, but it works well as a penny-pincher's photo printer.
