Currys stocks a , and while you’ll find plenty of cartridge printers for as little as £34.99, the all-in-one HP 5106 tank printer is a step up from these budget- friendly options.
It’s perfect for anyone who does lots of printing on a regular basis, and wants a reliable workhorse that will consistently deliver.
Unlike printers that use traditional disposable cartridges, tank printers come with ink reservoirs that are manually re-filled by bottles.
This might sound like extra work and hassle, but tank printers offer all sorts of benefits over cartridge printers.
They store far more ink than cartridges, and the offer much better value for money.
On top of that, tank printers are far more environmentally friendly: you won’t be repeatedly throwing empty cartridges into your bin.
If you only print every now and again, it probably makes sense to buy a cartridge inkjet printer.

But if you need to print frequently, and in high volume, a tank printer like the HP 5106 All-in- One is definitely the wiser choice.
It can print 12 black and white sheets a minute, and a three-year supply of ink is included.
Of course, printing is just one of the three functions built into the HP 5016: this is an all-in- one device that will also scan and copy your documents.
The printer’s wireless connectivity means you can operate it via the HP Smart app - so you can even be outside your home and come home to a stack of fresh prints.
On top of that, the HP Smart Tank 5016 has self-healing wi-fi, which means it offers extra levels of cyber-protection and guards the printer’s BIOS (Basic Input/Output) system.
This handy home appliance has an average rating of 4.6 out of 5 on the Currys website, with many customers leaving glowing reviews.
One customer writes: ‘[It’s] quiet when printing, easy to set up. Would recommend this printer - easy to load and no ink cartridges to buy… Best printer to date.’
Another shopper says: ‘The printer is great for the price. The ink tanks were very simple to fill and not messy at all (the one thing I was very worried about).
‘I set it up with the app, and the whole experience was seamless and easy, with simple guides taking you through each step.’
This deal runs until Saturday 30th March.
