I'm not looking for over $300. The HP OfficeJetPro 8600 All-in-one seems
to be overkill for me. The 8100 is on sale at Staples. I probably could
have offered the guy $50, but I had just finished looking at some
prices. I don't need a laser, and don't print enough to really justify
it. One big advantage over the laser is that the ColorLaserJet takes a
long time to warm up, and that drives my wife nuts.

Currently I would not consider a Canon. Only HP, Epson or Brother.
