Canon Pixma MP460

The Canon Pixma MP460 is a minor update to the MP450. We still like its print quality but were disappointed by its scans. Still, it's one of our top choices for a photo-centric budget all-in-one.
Lexmark X3550

On the surface, the X3550 appears to be a budget workhorse of a printer with the enticing option of wireless connectivity. It's a pity then, that the wireless is so expensive to include, and the printer itself so slow.
Dell 926 Photo All-in-One

The Dell Photo 926 is disappointing, even for a AU$100 multifunction printer. You can get a better printer for the same money.
