Printers

[maggiebee]

I have a Levono laptop with windows 10. Unfortunately it doesn't seem to be compatible with my Epson printer - have tried everything under the sun. Decided best just to buy a new printer. Don't use it a lot but want something reliable. Any suggestions?

Erm - by the way, it's Lenovo.

I always recommend laser-jet printers. The cost a bit more but, particularly if you don't use them a lot, the cartridge lasts longer and, more important, the printer works all the time. With bubble-jets I found I spent more time (and money) cleaning the heads when I came to use them. Think about it.

Don't give up on the Epson printer. Does it connect by USB or wifi?
What model is it? How old is it?

I lost a perfectly good printer when I upgraded my computer - the newer Operating System was not compatible and Epson wouldn't provide drivers. It could be worth looking on the Epson website to see if there are drivers available for your printer.

Oops, fat fingers -yes Lenovo. Thanks for the suggestions folks, will check them out.

I too have a Lenovo laptop and found that I had to get the printer to look for it rather than the other way round.

It also refuses to accept photos either cabled or wirelessly among other endearing little quirks.
One of the hinges let go a while back so it's edging closer to the bin with each passing day.

We've never really got on.
