Been trying to get an IP4000 and can't seem to see them anywhare apart from
ARGOS (£20 More than the rest)

Currys, Dixons, PCWorld ALL sold out, or not listed.

Any idea where to get one INSTORE for £79 (UK)


Many Thanks

Mike

Pretty much... unless you find a ip4000 somewhere. At least in the
states the best deals were in june and july. Not sure about the UK but
I see a few options for £110 pound on amazon.co.uk. It would shock me
to see a bunch of referbs sometime in the near future.

Stuck? Apparently it is an upgrade, more nozzles,
more inks, smaller drops (same as the 5000, I
believe). If you are worried about the tanks
being chipped, then get the 5000, which will
probably also be out of stock soon.

THE IP4200 IS NOT REALLY AN UPGRADE. IT PRINTS SLOWER THAN THE IP4000.
TO REALLY GET AN UPGRADE YOU NEED TO LOOK AT THE IP5200. THIS PRINTS
FASTER THAN THE IP4000 AND HAS MORE NOZZLES. THE JURY IS OUT IF THE END
RESULT WILL LOOK MUCH BETTER.

I bought one last week at Staples at 89.99 GBP It's a fantastic printer in all
respects. It's a shame the design of the new ones don't seem to be as radical as
the ip4000 and similar.

Hope you get one before they all go.

Regards,

John B.

Thanks John.

Managed to bag one at Argos today but a part was missing so it has to go
back tomorrow.

None in stock as yet. I have also just seen some online for £78.99 inc VAT
and Delivery.

Thanks to all others who helped too.
