Kristina ³In order to seek one¹s own direction, one must simplify the mechanics of ordinary, everyday life.² -Plato Had to give my two cents in. . .the Epson line is great. Forget the all in ones altogether and grab a Stylus C series by Epson, and look for a flatbed scanner. My scanner is portable; powered by the USB hub by Canon. My entire system, with the exception of my Epson printer, fits neatly in the laptop bag when I'm on the go. What's the system? Pismo 500, keyboard light, Canon scanner, Zip drive, CD/RW drive, iPod Photo, iSight, Casio digital camera AND even some media if I need it. Of course, I'm the geek who puts any software based media I made need for a business trip on my watch but that's another story! Is it sounding like I don't like all in ones? I don't. As a freelance computer geek who goes to people's homes everyday and helpe people decide which computer is best for what I am tired of seeing all-in-ones confusing computers. HP is the worst. Don't get me wrong, but the hardware is very well built, even the Lexmark line is decent. BUT. . .hardware is where it stops. The software for these machines is in the dark ages. My grandmother has a G4 800 with an HP all-in-one and she made me get rid of the thing. . .THREE months after she bought it! Now, she's happy with a simple printer by. . .of all brands. . .Lexmark.

Smart move. The cost of ink jet cartidges will exceed the hardware cost many time, over a reasonable lifetime. If you can find one, a laser printer/scanner will be a better deal -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

My son is using a HP PSC 1315, with his Sony Vaio, and is very satisfied with it. It is a printer/scanner/copier.

Will keep you posted. :-) Well, I did it. Installed everything and the darn thing works perfectly. And it is OS 9 compatible, too! So, for the low price, a scanner, copier and printer? Good deal!

Re: Re.: All in one printer for Pismo?
In looking at possibilities for printers, I must consider, along with quality of print from digital images, the cost of the cartridges. I will look at these suggestions wit the idea to compile a list of compatible printers; do some research for cost factors as well as quality output and then negotiate with my banker uh after christmastime.
