Subject: [access-uk] Wireless Printers

Hello,

I am seriously considering buying a wireless printer.  Trawling through some
favourite websites and talking to sighted colleagues produces a variety of
printers and opinions, so any thoughts and recommendations to help me
through the minefield would me most welcome!

My printing needs are straightforward, letters, short documents, etc.  I
certainly don't intend going in for mass production!  I notice that all seem
to be combined with a scanner.  This is fine with me.  The software would
have to be accessible to a screen reader.

So far as the price is concerned, the cheapest I have come across on the
internet is a Del printer from Argos for around £50, followed by an HP
Photosmart for just under £60 from John Lewis. Is paying a maximum of around
£100 realistic for a reasonably decent machine?

My setup here is a Netgear router, connected by USB cable to a desktop PC
running Windows XP; connected wirelessly to the router is my laptop, running
Windows Vista Home Premium, soon to be upgraded to Windows 7.

Looking forward with thanks to your replies.

Cheers,

Christopher
