Hi
Just after christmas I spent quite a bit of time looking at the
multi-function printers. At the time Harvey Norman had the the
Lexmark X1170 for about $80-90. I was at their City West store and kept
going between the different makes/models they had on display.
I ended up settling on the HP PSC1315 for $130 (about $50 off rrp).
The base model was good, but the next one up (the PSC1315) has a USB
connection on the front for "pict bridge" printing from a compatible
camera, whilst the top model had the card reader slots on the front.
I have been very happy with the machine so far, and that has included
the production of an A4 (both sides) full-colour newsletter per day for
ten consecutive days (lots of work). The original cartridges are still
going despite the quite heavy workload, and they are only about $30 per
cartridge.
One of the main factors that helped to decide on this printer was the
fact that it had one of the smallest footprints for this type of
device, which is very important on my home computer desk.
Now I just need to update the camera to one that has "Pict Bridge"
support.......
My 2c
