Hey guys, everyone in my household has a laptop, so I am looking for a wireless printer to for the home so people don't always have to go and connect a cord every time they want to print something. I am looking to spend around 70-90 bucks. I've seen the x4550 at Amazon for 84 bucks with free shipping which I like. And overall good reviews. I like the fact that it is an all-in-one. I was curious what people's opinions were or if they knew of other good models to look at. Thanks.

If you can scrounge up the extra $15 then I'd recommend the Canon MP620 over the Lexmark. This is for two very good reasons. One, the Lexmark uses two ink cartridges (black and color) while the Canon uses four (black, cyan, magenta, and yellow) which means you don't need to replace the entire color spectrum when only cyan runs out. The second reason is more subjective... in my experience Lexmark printers lack reliability and tend to break down or have issues more often than other printers I've used.

Thanks for the feedback. I went ahead and bought the x4550. The Canon MP620 was like 25 dollars more, and I have had good experiences with Lexmarks so far.
