Printer/Scanner/Fax

[Mike]

Hi all

I am after replacing my Epson Photo 810 with a 3 in 1 machine. I really want something good enough to printer the odd photo on.

Any recommendations

Thanks

Is there an echo here?

I'd recommend the canon mp390, it does scanning (very well) faxing (inbuilt modem) photo printing, and photocopying.

An excellent all round machine, I've bought two so far, one for me and one for my mum's computer, would recommend it to all. The initial outlay is a little steep at around £150 but saying that the replacement carts can be bought for as little as £1.99 online. If you use it a lit there is great savings to be had, but without loosing quality.

I'm particularly happy with the photo prints, they really are excellent.

Edit - post deleted - your all trying to make me look silly aren't you - where's my tinfoil hat?

I bought my Dad the HP PSC 2355 and its superb. Great quality, and its got multiple memory card readers, USB port, and a small colour screen to view and print pics without the PC even being on.

Cannot recommend it enough. £150 from most places.

Oh yer and the Mp390 also has card readers, SD, CF and MM

edit - and pictbridge to allow you to print your photos from the camera with out the computer on

its worth mentioning that the epson printers are rather impressive and cheap at the moment, I brought an R300 for under £100 and it has memorey card readers, usb port for direct connection of external cd-rom etc, and prints direct to CD's if you go up a few levels you can get superb all in ones from them. and the picture quality is out of this world..

hp psc2510 looks good.

my mum has the above (hp psc2510)and it is a cracking little machine, a bit of a pain to set up wirlessly as it likes to be wired durring set up..

I have been looking around for a printer/scanner/copier and have just ordered a Hp PSC 2410, it has a built in modem so it can fax in colour if needs be ! card reader slots and a very good review in PC pro magazine.
PC world have them on offer at the moment on their web site.

All in ones are great as long as one part doesn't die. Then they become a rather large printer or scanner sat by the side of your replacement for the broken bit.
