printer and scanner recomendations...

HI,
I'm thinking about buying a new printer and possibly a scanner. The printer will be used mostly for photos and color prints. We have a laser printer for text. I'm looking for a good quaility printer, but really don't want to spend more that $150 for it. And, are there any good quality multi-purpose machines out there. I would be willing to spend more if I could get a scanner also. But, I'm not sure how efficient they are and how well they print. Any advice would be great. Thanks

See if you can find an HP K80. It's an all-in-one that is very good and in that price range. I like it so much, I picked up two of them! The photo prints are very nice and it scans well too. And, it can also fax and be used as a "copier."

The K80 is a sheetfed - if you are looking for a flatbed multifunction, look at the HP PSC series.

My wife got her a HP PSC 2210V and seems to love it. I haven't had a chance to use it yet.
