Our HP Envy has become erratic and although the inks were always pricey, they doubled about a year ago and the machine doesn't like alternatives. It's done well (5+ years) but isn't used often (maybe that's the problem). My wife installs and trouble-shoots and is sure we need another machine.
There was a thread here earlier in the year about printer recommendations and with discussions about different formats. Our use, connected to a desk-top, is basic, and the Envy did what we need. Looking at Argos, the machines still seem rather cheap (our Envy was £50 a long time ago) so that's not an issue; maybe the ink could be after not being happy with the HP ink durability and cost.
I know nothing about these machines or their spec's and would welcome general and specific advice as to a replacement for our Envy. It sits on a shelf above the monitor, so a front-facing control panel would be a slight asset.
