Printer-only alternatives to Pinnacle Pro901? Any suggestions?

I just looked at a newer Lexmark all in ones at Office Max, and for $200 on sale, with a $50 Visa gift card, making it cost $150 total, based on the fact that you'd be saving a bundle on the black & white copies, that would only cost you a penny each, you might be better off in the long run, buying an all in one, and using it for black & white printing only, if in fact the black ink Lexmark cartridges can be purchased for about $5 each. Taht is, if you don't use any color ink in the process. You'd have to check with Lexmark to see if by using the copier for black & white only, whether any color ink is used in the process. If it is, I'd tell you to forget about it, since I have an old HP deskjet 5150 printer only, that's about eight years old, where the color cartridges cost about $18 each at Costco, pack of three, that's three cents per page, and I never keep a color cartridge in the machine.

I haven't set up the printer yet. But I have not seen anything that suggests I need a specific type of printer. I will update if I find out something different.

I use a Brother J825DW, a multifunction, wireless printer that is relatively cheap right here on Amazon. The quality, even when printing to discs, is exceptionally good. After using this printer at home for a few months, I replaced all the printers at work with the same model. Being able to replace each color ink cartridge individually was a huge, huge plus!

check with the seller or the vender or there should be a list of compatible printers

I am using the FX890 dot matrix printer to print 3 part NCR invoices and it works great. I didn't know Epson made another printer for invoices.

I bought one yesterday. Will post a review in a few days once I have tried everything out. So far, works fine out the box printing from a camera memory card. If price is everything to you, get an iP6600D at the closeout price.

Greetings - It's the extra paper tray. Likely not worth it...unless you have a glaring need to print different paper sizes and/or high volume.

Not that I know of Jim. It was fairly inexpensive as printers go, so probably not? It still was not worth the cost in aggravation to me.

Through Dell. I suggest you get it as the unit gave me trouble after a few months of extremely light use. Tip: if prints are split by a blank horizontal line then set to "print as image".

Sorry, I don't have a printer on this. I'm sure most would work with it though. I'd go to staples or a similar store and they should help.

Really the printer depends of your specific needs, I have a Canon PIXMA Pro9000 for photo printing and works very very well.

Yes, Look for a profile called something like Canon Pro 9500 Mark II<PR>1 Photo Paper Pro II. For some unknown reason they were very cryptic when naming this profile. When you print see if you have "Photo Paper Pro Luster" as a Media Type option. If you do not, you may not have the latest driver. In that case Canon recommends using "Photo Paper Plus Semi-Gloss" as the next best alternative.

I have not had any need to print doublesided documents, but I will try to check it out tomorrow and let you know. I do have a Mac, so my printer menus are considerably different than the ones that pop up on a PC. I have never even seen a "black ink only" option, despite searching. I will try to find it.Thanks for a well thought out and relevant response.

Affirming the HP praise here, I've worked with Lexmark and Epson "all-in-one's" with some success but the most head-ache-free experiences have been with an HP Laserjet and an HP All-in-one, both of which are currently connected as network printers from Linux machines that my wife and I use at home. Aside from most-favorable Linux compatibility experience with HP, service and durability have also been much better, thus far, than with my throw-away Epson and Lexmark printers. I don't work for HP but I admire their corporate stance in support of Linux compatibility.

I ended up with the MP620. It seems okay so far, but I really have not done much with it yet...just printed out a few regular pages. Haven't tried the scanner, copier , or photo printing yet. Keep on meaning to , but just haven't yet....I will try some of these things in the next few days and send another reply if that will help. One thing, it said "quick start" and it doesn't seem to be very quick, but there may be some setting I have to change for that and I've pretty much just been turning it on and clicking print....
