Combination laptop/pc with built in printer
Does anyone know if there is such a combination as the above, incorporating either an inkjet or preferably laser printer ? I'm aware that there will probably be limitations regarding the number of A4 sheets that can be stored and printed before having to reload.
What prompts this question is the murderous frustration that overwhelms me when the latest product of Mr. Epson decides - seemingly on a whim - to take an extended holiday and refuse all further work. I soon return to some personal normality but, when the red mist descends, confess to a deep and abiding visceral hatred of the printer in question.
Part, if not the whole of the problem, seems to be my occasional use of said machine to print the odd letter. It is as if some malign personality lurking within the printer carcass decides to throw a hissy fit because it hasn't been gainfully employed for a few days. My WF 2530 - because that is just one of it's names, the others are unprintable, is full to the brim with expensive ink cartridges that never get used. Stinky Ink who sell Epson lookalikes at half the price of the originals do not work.
Help is requested, otherwise it's me for the funny farm.

If your needs really are *just the odd letter* then you would do well to dispose of the inkjet and get a laser. I do have an inkjet for photo printing but use my HP laser every day, with very few probs.
As you imply, ij printer heads dry up and then have to do endless grunting and groaning to get themselves wet again - sometimes they give up altogether and it's time to get out the alchemy kit.
But to answer your original question, I've never heard of a combo. Wouldn't buy one anyway, 'cos you could guarantee that the failure of one would b+gger up the other.

Never seen or heard of one..................

Agree 100% with laser printer. I have an old HP laserjet that's still going strong after 20 years! I've chucked away 2 inkjets in that time.

Sounds like you want a Canon Notejet III
