Need Help picking a printer!
Just like it says I need help picking a printer for my office. Looking for a Color Multi-function.(Print, Copy, Scan, Fax). I have the HP 8500Premier and it is dying on me after 2 years of service. Kinda expected more from it. I would like to know if there is a better multi function than the HP8600 Pro that is out. Please help I am not a printer expert. BTW don't want to buy ink cartridges ever week either.

If you find one that does not suck the ink, let me know. I settled on a MF 4350d lazer printer for B/W and a 5 year old Photo Stylus R200 for color. I can get super cheap knock-off ink from Amazon for the R200 and the toner for the Canon is not too expensive.
Sorry, no help.BBQASUS P8Z68-V PRO; i7 2600k @ 4.1GHz; Kingston HyperX 16 GB @ 1866; Mushkin Enhanced Callisto Deluxe 90GB SSD with Win7 Home Premium 64bit; OCZ Vertex 2 SATA II 2.5" SSD 60GB - Programs; 2 WD 2 TB Caviar Green RAID1; WD 2 TB Cavier Green in external USB3 case;EVGA FTW 670 GTX; Acer 22 inch Widescreen; PSU: Ultra 4x 1050

It was a little help. My HP 8500 Premier was not that bad on ink. Anyone used the Epson Multi's?

It only takes a couple seconds to print a 4-6 and normal b&w sheets shoot out as fast as you can blink.
