Expert review by : Simon Williams (trustedreviews.com)
A gel inkjet printer for less than £60
High duty cycle ; ECOnomy colour mode ; Made from eco-friendly plastics
Very optimistic speeds ; High running costs ; Hard to read LCD display
Installation is very straightforward, with a comprehensive driver and a user guide being the only substantial software. The four ink cartridges slide easily into slots behind a cover on the right hand side of the paper tray.

Very cheap ; Great print quality for the price ; Relatively well-featured
Can't take high capacity colour cartridges
For the asking price, this is a little marvel of a printer, and one which should definitely be on your shopping list if you're after a true bargain.

With dimensions of 395 x 360 x 215mm (W x D x H), the Aficio has a sturdy and solid box-like appearance. Predominately black in colour, with white front and rear face plates, this printer’s connection options are located on the left side of the unit....

Very inexpensive printer with quick print speed. Can't comment on photographic printing quality as not bought for this purpose.
Ink looks expensive if replacing all cartridges. May be worthwhile buying a completely new printer!
