one good and one bad experience in doing this with printers)I stumbled on
MacMall, currently has 4 open box N911g's in stockfor $115.79

I'm surprised there's been no cautions about HP's proprietary
data format (non-PCL / non-Postscript) printers that only print
from a supported OS, AFAIK MS Windows and Mac OS X. I've had

no luck getting them to work.

I've never seen an inkjet printer anywhere that if you touched the output with
slightly-moist fingertips you hadn't ruined the output.
I can't speak to the Pixma, never having used one, but that seems ... foreign

According to my calculations:
The HP 276nw b/w toner is $86 for 2,400 pages ($0.036 per page) and the CMY

Hi,
I've just passed on my Canon Pixma MP150 which is still doing sterling
service after many years.
I'm in the market for a similar cheap inkjet/scanner. It's for
occasional use (both printing and scanning) and I rarely print photos
(so photo quality isn't critical). I have a small blank-
