[GRLUG] Need to buy printer

[Godwin]

Not<$100, but I have an HP Photosmart C6280.  I bought it for myself a
year after buying my in-laws a c5260 (or c5280, I don't remember).
Works w/ Win, Linux (CUPS finds it automagically) and Mac OS X.  It's
a scanner, has a duplexer and it's network ready.  Just for kicks, you
can hit it's built-in webserver and scan a JPEG directly to your
puter.  Yup, who needs scanner drivers.

$129.99 w/ free shipping at Newegg
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16828104715

and cartridges are $11.99 there too.
