I get all my ink online. You can buy them in bulk at www.123inkjets.com. I just got 4 blacks 2 of each of the colors for my brother combo for $44 and some change. Much cheaper than anywhere else that I've found. Plus they are good cartridges. Have not been disappointed yet.
Thanks Bullhaulerswife, I took your advice and ordered a wireless. I was ordering a HP laptop, so went ahead and ordered a printer. It's a HP Photosmart e-All-in-One Printer - D110a, got it for $50.00 dollars, like 50% 0ff because we ordered the laptop and It had great reviews. http://www.shopping.hp.com/product/printer/Photosmart/1/storefronts/CN731A%23B1H Hopefully it will be compact enough. We aren't driving yet, we are starting school possibly in Nov or Jan .
