A black-only laser printer has such a capacity, that your father would hardly have to change it. So if color printing isn't a requirement (and you didn't say so) that might be a way to go.

I'm trying to find a good printer for my elderly father. At the moment, he has a Lexmark that requires him to go through several steps (including scanning an alignment page) to change an ink cartridge. Is there a simple printer out there that doesn't put the user through a process every time the cartridge needs to be changed?
Thanks in advance!
