Anyone have a good printer/scanner that they like?

Hoping to find one that is not too expensive. Please let me know if you are happy with yours. Also, if you found a bargain, please share where I can find it! Thanks

I'm pretty much anti-all in one units. They tend to be slower, and if one part breaks the entire unit has to be sent in for repair (don't put all your eggs in one basket). When any of these consumer electronics breaks, it costs more to repair than replace.
That said, I've had good luck with an HP Scanjet 3970 and a Epson R220 Photo printer. The advantage of the Epson which is also that of many more expensive Canon printers is that it uses multiple colored ink cartridges, meaning replacing the ink doesn't require buying a whole color cartridge at once that fills the need for all the ink cartridges. The costliest part of printers is the cost of ink, which usually mounts up to be more than the printer itself pretty quickly.

  • HT1338 I have an HP Printer/scanner, and since upgrading to Mountain Lion I can no longer scan on my HP.  HP tells me that I can get an upgrade app from 'Apple Software Upgrade' .  Does anyone know how to do this?

    I have an HP Printer/scanner, and since upgrading to Mountain Lion I can no longer scan on my HP.  HP tells me that I can get an upgrade app from 'Apple Software Upgrade' .  Does anyone know how to do this?

    HP couldn't find its own apps with both hands and a flashlight.
    As of Lion all scanning functions are incorporated natively in OS X. You can scan three ways:
    Use Preview: File > Import from scanner
    Use Image Capture
    (Preview and Image Capture are both in your Applications folder.)
    System Preferences > Print & Scan. Select your HP and use the Scan tab.
    If you have HP's "Image Zone" software installed, you no longer need it and it no longer works anyway.

  • Will the iPhone 5 have the finger print scanner?

    I recently bought an iPhone 5 not knowing that the 5s is coming out and I wanted to know if the iPhone 5 will have the finger print scanner on the next update.

    A software update will not change the hardware in your phone.

    In short, NO.
    I was hoping that the 7.4.1 update would allow it to work, but it has caused more problems than it is worth.If you do actually get it to work you will see the TC in finder (under Shared) when connected to the internet outside of your home network. What I have found though is that the 7.4.1 firmware update has made using the internet at home almost impossible.
    I have tried Hamachi but it is not reliable.
    I have settled with Dropbox so my files are synced between my home machine and laptop.

    First, Go to System Preferences, keyboard, and click on the Keyboard tab
    Make sure that the checkbox by "Use all F1, F2, etc, keys as standard function keys" is NOT checked.
    Next, click on the Show All button, and select Bluetooth. You should see your Apple Wireless Keyboard listed on the left side of the screen.
    Click once to select it, and then click the gear icon at the bottom of the box, and choose Disconnect.
    Power off the keyboard by holding down the power button on the keyboard for a few seconds until it show "keyboard Off on your imac screen, then turn it back on again.
    The device should appear once again in your bluetooth list.
    Try out the volume control buttons now, and see if that cleared things up

    Hi Bill,
    Not possible to run Tiger on a new Mac at all.
    The good news is that VueScan supports many Mikrotek scanners & is free to try...

  • Does anyone have a sample implementation plan that can be shared?  High level?

    Does anyone have a sample implementation plan that can be shared?  High level?

    You will probably need to inquire with a VMware consultant to get this kind of information.  VMware depends on these people to make sure they keep the reputation of the software at a very high level.  
    They will have access to various free tools to help large and small scale deployments.  Tools like VMware Health Check Script and the ESX deployment tool.
    If you find this information useful, please award points for

  • I just downloaded a PHP script plugin and I'm having a very difficult time installing it into my site.  HELP!  Dose anyone have a good video tutorial link?

    I just downloaded a PHP script plugin and I'm having a very difficult time installing it into my site.  HELP!  Dose anyone have a good video tutorial link?

    Unfrotunately, this sounds like a dead TC.
    - also, the picture does NOT pick up the 2 airport expressess in the house that I used to extend the wirelass network on the previous TC
    - there is no option to extend the wireless network
    You need to reconfigure the Expresses to rejoin the TC's network via a factory reset.

  • Looking for a printer/scanner that works with Time Capsule

    I recently purchased a Canon MP250 printer/scanner, 1 GB Time Capsule, and two iMac's (21.5 and 27). I connected the printer/scanner to the Time Capsule USB port and it was absolutely trivial to get both iMac's to print to the MP250. My problem is that I can not figure out how to get the scanner to save scanned image files to either iMac.
    If I plug the Canon MP250 directly into either iMac, it is trivial to scan. Pressing the SCAN button on the MP250 causes the Image Capture application to launch on the iMac, and then you simply press the Scan button of the Image Capture application.
    If it is not possible to scan connecting the Canon MP250 to the Time Capsule, is there another model of printer/scanner that will work as a scanner when connected to the Time Capsule?
    Thanks,
    Carroll

    The USB port on the Time Capsule will only support compatible printers. It will not support other functions such as copy, fax, scan or maintenance. If you need these services, your only option is to connect the all-in-one directly to a computer.

  • I need an application that will turn off my iPhone on the home screen just by a one click since my power button has sank and is no longer working--anyone have ideas?? I don't like having to use assistive touch and hit three buttons to lock my screen

    No such app exisits or can exist.  Apple doesn't allow 3rd party apps to access core functions of the phone.  Time to get your phone replaced or repaired if assistive touch doesn't needs your needs.

  • Error "Post the HUs for goods receipt so that they can be transfer "

    Hi Gurus,
    I am facing a problem while doing PGR the inbound delivery,
    I am moving stock from one SLOC (AY02- HU Managed) to Another SLOC
    (AA99-
    Non HU). Inbound delivery is created .
    I did automatic packing and packed the HU generated and saved the
    inbound delivery. While doing PGR I am getting error "Post the HUs for
    goods receipt so that they can be transfer posted Message no.
    HUFUNCTIONS254". Kindly Assist
    Steps for Reconstruction    
    1) MB1B post with 311 movement type.
    2) delivery gets created.
    3) pack the HU's automatically and HU's were generated, save the inbound.
    4) Do PGR .
    Regards
    Gopi

    Hello,
    There is a "concept problem". You are not doing a reception, you are posting an issue. After running MB1B system should create an Outbound delivery.
    In a HU-managed storage location you should use existing HU in order to pack the delivery. Instead of generate new HUs in the OD, try to pack existing ones.
    Regards
