My last one lasted less than 2 years before I chucked it.

The problem with Epson's is when you change the ink cartridge you don't change the print head with it, which turns out to be a bad thing as they get all gunged up!!!

I'll never have another Epson, got a lovely HP now.

Seeing as you can pick up a priter for less than £50 these days I doubt it's worth bothering with your existing one.

A quick look on the PC World website shows 5 for under £50, one is an Epson so I wouldn't get that!!
Personally I'd go for the HP DJ3550 out of them, Lexmark cartridges are expensive.
I'd agree with the HP sugestion. I've had 3 Epsons & have ditched them all. Now have an HP 5550 - excellent quality & very reliable.
