Hello everyone, this is my first post here - so apologies if this thread is in the wrong section.

I run an online menswear company and we currently use a HP Officejet 6500 E710n-z printer for printing all of our customer invoices. With the number of orders we get increasing all of the time, we've found that this particular printer isn't really up to the task anymore. It's a decent printer but not really viable for the volume that are printing nowadays.

On average, we're printing about 50 invoices a day currently - which takes quite a while with our HP printer as the print speed is quite slow. Can anyone recommend an ideal printer for a growing e-Commerce business?

Ideally the printer should be:
Fast printing (this is probably the biggest requirement)
Wireless Networked
Energy efficient
Cheap to maintain and run

We don't really need a whole lot of features and functions as the printer will predominately be used to print black and white invoices. I'm happy to spend up to £300 provided it meets our needs and is a high quality model.

Any advice and recommendations would be massively appreciated!

We have several Kyocera and several Samsung and in general they work well with lowish running costs at 1p per page in Toner. All cost £150 - £200. However, keep an eye out for deals with cash back or warranty. You sometimes get the printer for peanuts-

Cost £150
Cashback £50
Includes printer cartridge worth £50

No brainer and even if the printer does not last long (green issues aside) you will not lose any sleep.

Look at printerbase. Nearly always best price and have offers as above.
