The "catch" to getting an old printer for free is, that you'll still have to buy the ink cartidges for it.
Which is from about $40 to $50 or so.
I see weekly ads in the Sunday paper for printers costing that much, if not LESS.... and they come with the cartridges!
IF you have a BIG LOTS store in your area I saw a basic HP printer for $26.00,

I purchased a new Canon which was cheaper than the replacement ink cartridges for my Xerox. Manufacturers seem to discount the printers and charge a premium on the cartridges.
I recommend you buy a new printer.
