[QUOTE="tusharch, post: 1938138, member: 25943"] Hie Techies, I am looking for a refill friendly laser printer for home use. My requirements are as follows : - Black & White Multi function printer for use by parents at home. Occassional use, not daily. - Max. 20 pages per month of printing. Sometimes unused for 1-2 months - Wifi desirable but optional. - Refill friendly toner. -> most important. I generally understand from similar threads on TE that HP 12A is the most common cartridge without chip & most refill friendly. (most threads are old, so I created this one) I searched on the net and found that HPM1005 uses this cartridge. But now, there is a newer model HP M1136 which uses HP88A. I personally dislike the idea of toners with "clever chips". After buying the printer, it should be the end user's prerogative whether to stick to OEM cartridge, or go for a non OEM or refill & decide the quality of prints he /she wants. Anyway, so finally my choices are : - HP M1136 - HP M1005 - Samsung SCX 3406W - Canon MF3010 - Panasonic KX-MB1900 / MB2010 Please pour in your suggestions to help me finalize. Also, please let me know if all of the above models contain smart chip or not. I am trying to ascertain myself, but this not directly reflected in product manuals. I am also confused as Canon sales rep. claims they give full toner, bit brochure shows starter toner. Further, if starter toner can be refilled ? I called up popular toner refillers in my area (Thane, mumbai). Most of them opined that HP toners are most refill friendly. Samsung and canon give problems are messy to refill due to chip reset issues. [/QUOTE]
