HP Colour LaserJet Pro M283fdw Multi-Function Printer £330 (was £420) Number 1 in reviews.

I was looking at one that did auto duplex, colour & laser.

This is the exact one my sister has at home provided by her work.

This means when she looks after my dad, giving me a day off she can print without a lot of messing about.

Re: What have you just bought?

12 month membership to one of my local gyms.

There are 4 near me that I tend to flit between depending on offers and how antisocial I’m feeling. So one of them has a half price annual deal where it’s £125 instead of £250. The other gyms are 24 hour places so these are the ones I go to when I train at 4am to be alone.

The one I signed up to today opens at 6am and is always dead until around 6.45. When I’m doing weights (rather than cardio) I can easily get in a good session in about 40 minutes so it’s a no-brainer really. Cardio in the evenings and hopefully my sleep pattern will eventually return to that of a vaguely normal human again for the first time since about 2018.

We bought the MFP479fdw at £399 then £100 cash back. Don't need the f (fax) but it was cheaper than the model without fax. Now replaced by the MFP 4302 £375 with £120 cash back = £255 inc VAT. HP stuff works well with Linux which was a big issue with us.

Re: What have you just bought?

Wow, I just plugged it in and connected it to my network, and my laptop found it, I just adjusted the defaults, and started to print.


I installed HP Smart on my devices and was able to print them.


The only thing I cant do is use the Scan to network option via the display on the printer as my WD NAS drivers ain't playing ball

32Gb Micro SD for my new dashcam. And an adapter for downloading any interesting bits.
