Printer Recommendations

It's time to retire my aging HP Photosmart P1100 printer. While it's been a reliable workhorse over the past 8 years (not bad for a refurb), it's finally starting to show its age. Furthermore, it's incompatible with Vista/Windows 7, so I think an upgrade is warranted.

I'm sure I'm going to receive a bit of criticism for this, but I'm actually considering a multi-function device. I know the adage of "jack of all trades, master of none" but for my needs I think an all-in-one should suit me just fine.

I do plan to print photos off it, so inkjet is definitely what I'm looking for. I also plan to scan in older pictures I have, and faxing would be a useful feature (though not an absolute requirement). Ethernet compatibility is a must, though wireless would be even better.

While I've been partial to HP ever since my first inkjet, I'm tired of paying $50 for a single color cartridge when the cyan ink runs out.
