I need a new printer, and if possible I would like it portable - the real deal, wireless and battery and the whole nine (pictbridge too for good measure - nice to be able to print from the camera without setting up the whole she-bang)
It's basically down to the canon ip100 and something by hp...possibly that portable all-in-one they did a few months back. The canon wins out in that I had an i70 once many years ago and it was a kick-@ss printer, so I trust the line, but otoh the model is over four years old *yikes*...and I have to buy it online from abroad because canon no longer sell locally. The HPs are much newer technology and much less hassle to get, BUT a few years ago I bought an all-in-one that died on me *days* after the warranty expired - and I was told to pay about 20% over the initial price to repair it, or buy a new one cheaper. I'm no crazy treehugger, but man, was that ever wasteful. I'm also concerned about how well both play with my mac, especially when used in wireless mode (which is pretty important for me...the battery is the most important, but wireless printing is next in line).
Which one do you think I should go for? Maybe another one?
