My printer seems to be on the way out, so will be needing new one.
I want an all in one thing, any recommendations? Don't really wanna spend more than £50. Ta.

Anything really at that price. I recommend HP as they seem to be the most solid but Canon and Epson are good as well. Avoid Lexmark at all costs because they're really dung!

we bought a brother a few years ago, the ink costs more than the printer, so we buy the syringe style refills from morrisons, refilled it last week and got covered. keep meaning to get another, might try stu's epsom, where's the ink from stu, is it someones cheaper version of epsom's "official" ink?

I bought the printer from argos or somewhere like that for £30 it is slow and noisy but does the job, i think is an sx125 the cartridges (there are 4 of them, but the black runs out quickest) i get local and my guess is they are not official epsom at £4 each, but I did quick search and they are still cheap at £7 odds, anyway even if I have to change all at once it will only be £16 I had a lexmark before and the ink cartridge was dearer than the printer

I only print "your window's have been cleaned tickets" and invoices, although sometimes I wonder why as no one pays anyway  at least not on time

I have a samsung CLP-320 colour laser printer. I found a guy on the internet who sells firmware for it so you can refill the toner,.. a £25 refill kit gives the same printing as £160 worth of cartridges. The print doesn't smudge when it gets wet,.. a major plus for printing "windows cleaned" slips etc. The next printer i want will be something like this: You are not allowed to view links.
