Repost saying (1) what Operating System you use, (2) what printer brand you prefer, if any, and (3) how much you want to spend. For most users, I recommend Brother inkjet or laser printers that have become obsolete but use standard ink or toner refills. Presumably in order to simplify its warehousing, in 2008 Brother offered most obsolete models at $40 to $60 i.e. half price or less than a set of refills. -- Don Phillipson Carlsbad Springs (Ottawa, Canada) |

Repost saying (1) what Operating System you use, A w200 is a webtv, specifically the Sony version. It would have been so much easier if webtv supported postscript, or HP laserjet language. Buying a printer for a WebTV is a difficult task to say the least. This is where you encounter the fact that modern printers are priced well below their value. When you think printer for webtv, think about $300. I'm not saying it'll cost you $300, but that's a reasonable cost given there were only a handful of supported in WebTV. Modern printers don't even support the same cable as webtv uses. http://www.epson.com/support/vendor/webtv/ http://printingwithwebtv.tripod.com/...eprinters.html HP DeskJet 895cxi The last link is mainly w100 compatible printers, but I'd guess what was supported on the w100 is supported on the w200. The only solution outside of repair is finding a list of printers that would work with the w200, and hitting craigslist.org, ebay, or froogle.com for them. hightech office should have some models http://store.high-techoffice.com/hepa67forwei.html I would say consider upgrading your webtv, but a MSNTV2 only supports things up to the Epson c88 and r260. I'd be happy with those printers, and you can still buy them, but they are no longer made. 5 years down the road you'll be in the same boat. |

Maybe you will try to help someone who want to connect their printer to their abacus. |

I was on broadband when webtv was new, and as such I wasn't interested. MSNTV2 is at least a little more interesting if it wasn't for the pesky deal of being locked into "their" service. But given new TVs support 720p and 1080p, there isn't really a need for a dedicated PC like appliance so long as one is willing to shell out the moolah. The only thing I would care about is whether a person can attach a printer to a webtv for less than the cost to upgrade systems. Given MSNTV2 costs $200, and a new printer costs $100, and one can reasonably expect older printers for less than $300, this in it self isn't a reason to upgrade. |
