Well, I've known the guy at wallies for a decade and change, and as I was audibly compareing the $40 canon ad the $70 hp, he said he couldn't say anything good about any canon he's ever owned, so I bought the Hp Envy 5255 along with a spare package of cartridges. When I got it unpacked on the table with the hp computer, the wifi hooked up and it auto configed the printer & scanner, then hunted around until I found a print control gui, and sent the screenshot I made last night to it. At this point all I can say is it Just Worked. On glossier paper I can send them to the Friendly Candy Company, suitably impressing the frogs in the DC swamp.
Going thru the self-checkout it offered me a loooong warranty for a $5 bill. Needless to say I jumped at that chance for failure insurance. Thanks Felix.
