I've been stumbling around trying to find a review of photocopiers. I've been looking at the HP 190. Does anyone own one? What do you think of it? It looks really good for the price, maybe the only downside is the inkjet cartridges. Any thoughts or input would be appreciated, or a link with copier comparisons. I couldn't find any at pcmagazine or cnet.

TIA

They are all pretty good (with the exception of the inkjets). I have an old Xerox 10ppm personal analog copier (XC series). Works great. Also have a Canon 10ppm (921) analog copier. Also works great. I know a couple people with the 10ppm xerox laser printer/digital photocopier multifunction machines (the ones that were cleared out for $150 at one of the office stores), and they like those too. Just check the local warehouse stores for a deal (you will eventually find one), stick with a name brand, stay away from inkjet, and take your best shot. I think I paid $249 for my 10ppm Canon 921 (fixed platen, sharp copies, no warm-up time, etc.). If you really need reviews, try www.reviewfinder.com. I doubt you will find too many copier reviews though. One hint. On the non-inkjet machines, toner cartridges are very expensive. At least with the Canon machines, you can get around this by buying the toner from a place like tonerrefillkits.com and filling it up yourself for about $30 instead of buying a $120 new cartridge.

Good luck,
