Hi Steven
I'm glad you asked your "dumb" question as I too have been looking at
the shops recently with a view to purchasing a Multi-function printer
- so I am looking at the responses you get.
There is just such a huge range out there and it is so hard to decide
what is right. All the retail "experts" have a different view! - and
not many know what works well with Macs.
I want my printer mainly for black and white text printing for home
use - (photo prints I do at Harvey Norman). I also want to scan and
copy. Don't need the fax. I will use usb connection.
The main concern is best value for ink useage and the recommendations
seem to be - go for a middle range (better value ink cartridges).
I know laser printers are better value re ink - but the footprint is
too large for my desk - so inkjet is the way I will go.
I'm considering a Canon Pixma MP560 - but would love some personal
recommendations from WAMUG users.
Office Works have some good deals now, and JB Hi-Fi are offering 50%
off ink (limit of 3) with a printer purchase.
Good hunting, Steven!
Regards
Marlene

At risk of asking a dumb question due to the multitude of options, I
need to grab a (preferably wireless but can hook into TC if not)
multifunction office printer / scanner. Not so bothered about a fax
function - who uses fax these days - but it'll probably have that
anyway.
Printing volume will be minimal, so will scanning for that matter,
but just need one around since my HP Officejet 7210 died.
Interested in views on the best Mac-friendly brand available at the
moment. Anyone know what Choice recommended in their Multifunction
printer report? I'll buy it if not.
Cheers, Steven
