Printing

Sick of everyday printer problems slowing you down? One second, it’s a simple print job. Next, you’re stuck in a print queue with a paper jam, a low-ink warning, and no idea why it won’t connect to your computer. Even the smallest hold-up like this can derail your whole day.

That’s where this collection comes in. This range includes online-only and in-store printing gear with smart tech and models that troubleshoot themselves before you even hit reprint. From home offices to team setups, you’ll find machines ready to handle every print job.

That depends on what you’re printing, how often you’re doing it, and how much muscle you need in your setup. Want something simple? Going full home office? Easy. The range includes home and office printers that are built to last, easy to set up, and actually do what they say on the box. You’ll find top picks from:

• Canon
• Epson
• Brother
• HP
• Kyocera
• And more!

Many models are ready to roll with macOS, Microsoft, and even mobile devices, so you can fire off a doc from your laptop, tablet, or phone. Whether you’re in the middle of a big print job or just knocking out a few pages, you’ll get fewer hiccups and crisp, high-quality prints every time.

Plenty. Some are built to power through bulk text, others are all about colour. Some can scan, copy, and fax before you’ve finished your coffee. The trick is knowing what you actually need your printer to do before it ends up chewing through ink for a once-a-year print job.

Here’s the lowdown on what’s in this printing range:

• Inkjet printers – Great for everyday use like schoolwork and forms with a bit of colour
• Laser printers – Built for high-volume runs, especially if you’re just printing in black and white
• Photo printers – These nail the print quality and handle all kinds of photo paper sizes.
• 3D printers – For creators, modders, and tinkerers who want to build from the ground up.
• Multifunction printers – Print, scan, copy, and maybe even fax if you’re still into that. These all-in-one machines are a great pick for most homes and study nooks.

There are also models with double-sided or duplex printing to save paper, plus built-in smarts like HP Smart for phone control. Some Canon Pixma printers don’t even need a computer. Just tap and print from your phone or tablet.

The best printer for you depends on how you actually use it. Printing the odd school assignment? That’s one setup. Smashing through reports every week? That’s another. Different printer models suit different jobs, so it’s all about matching the functions to the way you work.

Here’s what to keep an eye on:

• Wi-Fi connectivity – Almost a must-have now. Skip the cables and send jobs straight from your laptop, phone, or tablet.
• Touchscreen display – Makes it easy to tweak print settings, cancel jobs, or check what’s happening at a glance.
• Speed and volume – Pages per minute (ppm) tell you how fast it’ll spit out docs. Handy if you’re tackling chunky print documents often.
• Mobile and cloud gear – Look for support for a print service or the brand’s own app so you can hit print from anywhere.
• Firmware and drivers – Boring but important. Regular updates to the firmware and printer driver mean your machine keeps working when your computer or phone updates.
• Running costs – A cheap printer isn’t always a cost-effective one. Check what the ink or toner costs before you commit.

There are stacks of options here that tick these boxes, from everyday home units to serious office machines. The good bit? Whatever you choose, you’ll end up with gear that actually makes printing easier, not harder.

A printer’s only as good as the gear that backs it up. Stocking up on the essentials means your setup’s always ready to roll. Here’s what’s worth having on hand:

• Ink or toner – Whether you’re running an inkjet or laser, having spares ready saves you from the dreaded mid-job stall.
• Printhead replacements – Swapping one out can give your printer a fresh lease on life and sort out dodgy output.
• Cleaning kits – Blocked nozzles are behind half the print dramas. A quick clean keeps your pages sharp and streak-free.

Don’t forget the other bits that keep the setup working, such as copy and photo paper for every type of print job, laminating gear to protect the important stuff, plus storage and filing gear so the finished stack doesn’t just live on your desk.

Don’t let your printer be the weak link in your setup. With this extensive range, you can sort the ink, toner, and extras online before the next big print job hits. From all-in-one home units to heavy-duty office gear, you’ll find the machines and supplies that actually keep up with you.
