All-In-One Printer Suggestions

[heathertre]

My Epson printer is not working anymore and I need a new All-In-One printer. I looked online for top recommended printers but I really want to know what the general consensus is. I've come to AT to see what you can recommend me.

I need a printer that will print color/BW, photo's, documents, etc. Must have a scanner and copier included.

Let me hear your recommendations people.

"Stupidity cannot be cured with money, or through education, or by legislation. Stupidity is not a sin, the victim can't help being stupid. But stupidity is the only universal capital crime; the sentence is death, there is no appeal, and execution is carried out automatically and without pity." R.A. Heinlein

I will recommend Canon as always, but I'd recommend separates. The software that comes with a separate scanner can usually handle copying as well - usually with one button. Both Epson and Canon make decent scanners and the Canon iP4300 is the printer I'd recommend for quality text and photos at a very low price. If space is at a premium, rig up some kind of rack arrangement to put one above the other.

But if you must get a multi, the Canon MP-600 is as low as I'd go. It has basically the same print engine as the iP4300. The MP-530 has the iP4200 engine which has about half the nozzles of the 600 or 830. The advantage of the "office" units (530 and 830) is that they have sheet feeders and with sheet feeders you can often scan, fax or copy longer pages than the flat-beds can handle like from legal size originals.
