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.

CNET.com Editors' review:
This update to the popular Epson Stylus CX4600 is the most full
featured of Epson's latest starter all-in-one inkjet printers. Design
tweaks include a less boxy look and feel. You don't get a color LCD
for displaying photos without your computer, which is normal at this
price range. The CX4800 offers ports for popular memory cards, plus a
PictBridge slot, so you can check out the photos on your digital
camera before printing. The CX4800 and CX4200 look different from the
fax-capable CX5800F, but they share the same printing and scanning
engine. Because the CX3810 lacks camera and card slots, you'll have to
pair this slower, $89 base model with your computer to view and print
pictures. Stay tuned for our reviews to find out how well the new
printers perform in CNET's Labs.
