    Hi,
    i'm looking to get a printer/scanner combo. I'll mainly use it for scanning in books and documents, and also for printing out word documents (not many pictures). The main things i'm looking for are speed of printing, reasonable quality scanning, and good value for money with ink. My budget is around £60. Does anyone have any recommendations please? :)

    Thanks!

    Canon MP 210, has a good scanner (better than I thought), and prints well too, depending upon the print quality you want....The cartridges are fairly expensive and ink consumption is fairly high..!! Though you get cheap original inks from ebay for under 10 Quid.. :D

    I bought it online from Comet last month and got a £20 cash rebate from canon (the offer may have expired by now), and got a 3 year accidental cover....!!

    If you are not into covers and all, check out amazon, I guess they have it for under £40 with shipping and warranty..!!
