Also, I think that in actual usage the term "multi-function peripheral" is typically applied to OfficeJets and similar devices integrating scanning, printing, and faxing; although other peripherals also have multiple functions, like, say, cameras that can also record sound, I don't think you'd typically call them "multi-function peripherals". -- Michael Piotrowski, M.A.
