How to choose: home, small office or large office
The cheapest printer to buy is not always the cheapest printer to own. Before you look at the price tag, ask yourself three questions: how many pages a month you print, whether you need colour, and whether you also need to scan and copy.
For home and students
Most homes print school work, forms, a few photos and the odd document for the office. Here an Epson ink tank printer is usually the best value. The Epson L3250 (TZS 549,000) is the most searched model in Tanzania for a reason: it prints in colour, scans, copies and connects to your phone over Wi-Fi, and you refill it from bottles instead of buying cartridges. The L3251 is a very similar machine, and the L3310 is the option without Wi-Fi if you will always print from one computer with a USB cable.
If you only print a few pages a month and want the lowest price today, the HP DeskJet Ink Advantage 2875 at TZS 229,000 works, but its cartridges cost more per page than ink tank bottles. If you mostly print black text (assignments, CVs, letters), a small mono laser such as the HP LaserJet 111w gives sharp text and its toner does not dry out when the printer sits unused.
For photographers and print shops doing photos, the Epson L8050 prints six-colour photos, and the L18050 goes up to A3+.
For small offices (2–10 people)
Small offices mostly print black-and-white invoices, quotations, letters and tender documents, and they scan a lot. A mono laser multifunction printer is the safe choice:
- HP LaserJet MFP 136a (TZS 579,000) for a simple print, scan and copy machine on one desk.
- HP LaserJet MFP M236sdw (TZS 799,000) adds automatic double-sided printing and Wi-Fi so the whole office can share it.
- HP LaserJet Pro MFP 3103fdw (TZS 1,045,000) adds a document feeder for scanning multi-page files, plus fax.
If your office needs colour for marketing, reports or branded quotes, look at the HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP 3303fdw (TZS 1,389,000). If you print a lot of colour but want low running costs, the Epson L6490 ink tank is a good alternative with duplex and a document feeder.
For large offices, schools and print shops
Once several departments share one machine, or you need A3 paper, booklets and heavy copying, you need a photocopy machine (A3 copier) or an enterprise laser.
- The Canon imageRUNNER 2224 (TZS 1,590,000) is the entry point for black-and-white A3 copying.
- The Canon imageRUNNER 2425i (TZS 3,790,000) adds network printing and scanning for a busy office.
- For colour, the Canon C3326i, C3922i, C3926i and C3935i cover TZS 6,950,000 to 11,950,000, with the higher models built for higher monthly volumes.
If you only need A4 but print thousands of pages, an enterprise laser like the HP LaserJet Enterprise M611dn or the M430f multifunction is often cheaper and smaller than a full copier. Most copiers also need a stand (TZS 399,000), so remember to include it in your budget.
Running costs: ink and toner
The machine price is only the start. Over two or three years, ink or toner can cost you more than the printer itself, so compare running costs before you decide.
- Ink tank printers (Epson EcoTank) have the lowest cost per page for colour. You refill the tanks from bottles. Epson rates its 103 ink bottles, used in models like the L3250, at up to about 4,500 black pages and 7,500 colour pages, based on its standard test pages. Real results depend on what you print: photos and full-colour pages use much more ink.
- Cartridge inkjets (like the DeskJet 2875) are cheap to buy but cost more per page. They suit very light use only.
- Laser printers use toner powder, which does not dry out. A mono laser is usually the cheapest way to print large amounts of black text. Each toner cartridge has a page yield printed on the box; check it, and ask whether a higher-capacity “X” cartridge exists for your model.
- Copiers use toner bottles with high yields, plus parts like drums that need replacing over time. Ask about service and parts before you buy, not after.
A few habits save money with any printer: print in draft or “economy” mode for internal documents, use double-sided printing, and switch off colour when you don’t need it. For ink tanks, use the correct ink for your model and print at least a page every week or two so the print head stays clear.
Ask us on WhatsApp for the current price of ink bottles and toner for the model you are considering, and we’ll tell you honestly which option works out cheaper for your monthly volume.
Where to buy a printer in Dar es Salaam
You’ll find printers in many shops in Dar es Salaam and online. Wherever you buy, a few checks protect you:
- Confirm the exact model code. “Epson L3250” and “L3251” are close but not the same. Check the code on the box matches what you were quoted.
- Check the box and seals. A new printer should come sealed with its starter ink or toner, cables and manuals.
- Ask for a receipt that shows the model and the price you paid.
- Ask about warranty and service before paying, especially for copiers.
- Test it. Ask the seller to power it on and print a test page, or to help you set it up with your phone or laptop.
