I agree with Tom on the HP. I caught it at Staples on sale also got staples
rewards for the purchase. I believe it dropped it to around $180. It fit in
the same spot as my 7310. I have to say I turned on the coloring book app
somehow so now when I turn it on to do some printing I get a random
coloring book page. Keeps the Granddaughter happy.

I got it for its eprint capability and its hard wire Ethernet connection. I
only use it for printing from my iPad and for faxing and scanning. I am
about to can my 5650 but I have to see how long the black cartriidge lasts.
I do like the multiple color cartridge (ala Canon ).

I also have a Pixma (but not a multi function) It is a 4100 (I think) it is
just used to print photos and does a bang up job for that but it can't
compete with the CVS down the street for when I have to do any photo
printing.
