I'm after an all-in-one printer that does scanning and faxing too. I did have a HP 6310 which has died after only light use a couple of months out of warranty. I'm not interested in a photo printer - just one that does 'office' type things that isn't going to break so easily. Any recommedations plz?

Do you want an answerphone built in?Drivelling in TPD is not a mental health issue. We're just community blogging, that's all.

I have a HP 9120 that is still going strong and is 3 years old now. Not had any problems with it at all (Apart from the 64bit vista drivers not giving me a low quality print option, but hardly a hardware fault)Comment

Not really bothered about an answerphone, just print, fax and scan, and that the bloody thing works. I paid about £160 for the HP one, and have found lots of people with the same problem on HP's own forums. I've used it less than 10 times since I bought it and it's about to be thrown in a skip.Comment

The first one I got refused to complete the initialization process, and kept asking me to clear a non-existant paper jam.
It's replacement faired slightly better, but when I printed anything it just gave up half way through each page. So you would get out half a photo, or half a letter.
So I returned it for a refund and have been using the 930C, purchased in 1999, which I was trying to replace.
So in a nutshell avoid HP at all costs.
The old man bought a similar Canon device and has had no issues. Only thing is the Canon ones don't seem to come with wireless ethernet capability which was what drew me to the HP initially.Comment

Lexmark or Kyocera, not necessarily the cheapest but they are manufacturers that specialise in printers and seem to be the ones most commonly found in offices.Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave JohnsonComment

Recently got a Lexmark WiFi Scanner and Printer in one (no fax) after swearing by Epson for years but getting stuffed after the last one only lasted 14 months.
So far The printing is excellent, with the Wifi a doddle to set up. The only complaint is that wifi scanning is tempremental, the printer sometimes won't connect to the computer.
But I did only pay £70 for it.Comment

Just recently got a Samsung network printer, all in one. Fast and works a charm. Can't speak on its reliabilty as I've only had it six months.McCoy: "Medical men are trained in logic."
