I should have responded to this yearlier. Yes, I do need colour, use it quite 
a lot. So if a laserjet in my price range can't do it, I can't consider 
these. Also, if the laserjet is bulky, it could be a problem as my space is 
fairly restricted - that is to say I could fit it in but I'd rather not use 
that extra space for it!

Thanks, Greg, noted that. However, I do use colour for a lot more than 
occasional. So I guess it has to be an inkjet.

Thanks very much to all for advice! I think it'll probably be an HP inkjet but 
have to decide the model.

Sounds good.
