got an all-in-one printer from dell, i think its model is A920. its decent, the scanner is pretty good, it takes like 30 secs to copy and print, and photo printing is pretty good. the only problem is the size of the ink cartridge. It is quite small and the only way of replacing it is by ordering the cartridges from dell.com which are like $30.

Epson CX5400 - $149
Epson CX6400 - $199

the only difference is the cx6400 can print directly off the memory card from your digicamera. both use individual color cartridges so theyre cheaper to replace at a time. with use of epson photo paper, the prints are pretty impressive for the price. i will warn however, the scan quality is average... some people expect the same quality as a $200 stand-alone scanner...:nono: on top of that, i think Epson currently has like a $20 mail-in-rebate as well.
