Default Printer Suggestions

While i know printers wouldn't be up the ally for most of you guys, i was hoping you all would have some suggestions on a printer/scanner/copier.

Aiming for something relatively cheap, but don't want to skimp.

I need one for college next year, and the fact that my printer now simply died during a power storm.

thanks guys!
Jake

I've got a Canon IP3000, pretty good printer, I don't think are made any more though.

Newegg.com - Canon PIXMA iP4500 2171B002 31 ppm 9600 x 2400 dpi InkJet Photo Color Printer - Retail

something like that looks like it would suit you pretty well

You will hear a lot of different opinions about printers.
For my money I have always used Epson products, they are relatively inexpensive and provide some of the best print quality out.
In addition they offer a true water resistance and light fastness on their images.
I have actually submerged prints from my 1280 and there was no ink running at all.

just a heads up, small is good, the dorms at the school aren't tiny, but they aren't huge, so something less bulky would be a plus, the canon doesn't look huge, but incase that makes anyone think of a particular printer, there you go

lead that printer looks nice, but i want scanning and copying abilities as well.
i was looking at these two

Newegg.com - Canon PIXMA MX310 2184B002 Up to 22 ppm 4800 x 1200 dpi InkJet All-In-One Color Printer - Retail
Newegg.com - Canon PIXMA MP520 2178B002 Up to 30 ppm 4800 x 1200 dpi InkJet Photo All-In-One Color Printer - Retail

ive got the canon mp510 which is really good I think, so the mp520 must be just as good or better.
