Any suggestions for a utility printer. Just a plain printer (color and black) with no other features necessary? I have a good photo printer but my old Epson Stylus Color 1160 just died. Cheap is good. smile

Depends on your budget, but check out HP printers at Staples. I'm thinking they had ones for like $59....

But remember, you get what you pay for...

HP makes great inkjet printers. I've not come across a cheaper/faster printer on any level. We can argue quality all day, but they really cover the market with their printer range.
