Printer recommendations (megathread)
in Computer Peripherals ·
Hey there!
I could really use some help picking out a printer.
I need something that can actually handle heavier cardstock, maybe around 250-300gsm. I'm looking to print things like invitations, postcards, or those little birthday decorations that really need that thicker paper to look decent. Having Wi-Fi would be great, and duplex printing is definitely preferred if possible.
From what I’ve gathered online so far—and I might be wrong here—it seems like pigment inks are better because they hold up longer than dye-based ones.
I've been looking at a few options, and the Canon Maxify MB2150 or the Brother DCP-T510W seem okay for inkjets. For laser, I spotted the Ricoh spc260dnw and the Canon LBP611CN. Any advice or thoughts would be much appreciated.
Thanks!
