Seen a Lexmark one for £60 - nothing special as such but I'm not a heavy 'user' so will do for what I need it for.
Any views chaps

Yeah I am picking up the Lexmark 4850. It will come in handy for me as the laptop is downstairs and the printer and office are upstairs. I cannot be bothered to keep running up and down the stairs.

Thats my view - I've got my base PC which is my 'main' computer but sometimes (summer mainly) I need to print from my laptop when I'm in the garden, or sometimes when I'm away on business. Transferring over to a memory stick etc is just a pain in the arse so saw this printer and thought 'hmmm'............
if you wireless router is in a different room to your office or printers, get one of these, it will network up to 4 PC's and 2 printers

lexmark are shite... they are really expensive inkwise, the running costs are massive compared to other printers. They do not have high number of pages respective to each cartridge.
Not to mention the quality produced by lexmark is questionable
I would suggest buying a wireless print hub simply because you are then not restricted to your choice in printer now or in the future... I have a Netgear Wireless Printserver with 4-Port Switch which has a Canon IP 5000 connected to it and a Epson photo scanner
