Here are my needs * Occasional color printing - very few photos (can go to Walgreens or Wal-Mart for those). I am not a high volume printer for anything even in b&w but print a few pages every couple of days. I strongly prefer separate colors since I use the magenta and cyan about 3 times more than yellow.
* Semi-frequent scanning but does not need to be HIGH quality * LOW COST to purchase and operate. * Need to print wirelessly from my MacBook Pro running 10.5.5 and also print from a Sawtooth G4. I can share the printer which would be attached to the Sawtooth G4 also running 10.5.5. Alternatively the printer could be attached to a network or be wireless. If necessary I could physically connect the laptop to the printers and scanners since the G4 will be getting less and less use. However I hate to keep plugging and unplugging for fear of damaging my ports on the laptop. * Limited space I was thinking of a low cost multi-function inkjet WITH a low cost b&w printer. However, I am concerned that an inkjet printer will clog if used infrequently. I have no objections to a low cost multi-function laser but haven't really seen a low cost one. I still would need a color printer that can sit idle for weeks w/o clogging or drying out. Maybe I should just get a single multi-function inkjet and if that is all I have, it will be used enough it won't dry out. Thoughts or recommendations?
