If so, I've got an unopened Lt Cyan, Magenta, Lt Magenta, and a Yellow you can have. Send me a PM.
My five year old Photosmart C-5180 all-in-one finally died. Power plug on the rear of the printer was loose and kept shorting out, wouldn't hold a connection.
Office Depot has an HP ePrint (D110 series) on sale for $69.99, normally from $99.99. It's a decent all-in-one printer/scanner/copier, same footprint as a small microwave (same as the C-5180), which is where I keep mine. I got it and installed it, only to find out it wouldn't even power up on (modified sine wave) inverter power. A laser printer, sure, I understand that, since they have heaters in there and they use the 60 cycles of pure sine wave (household power) for the timing of the printing itself. But an inkjet? That's retarded. Someone skimped big time on the power supply for these things. HP Tech Support got an ear full. They said most of the time the ePrint and a few other new ones won't even work when plugged into a power strip or surge protector. Need to be plugged directly into the wall. HP kindly recommended a "mobile" printer and a "mobile" scanner, but they don't have a "mobile" all-in-one.
Took it back to Office Depot and got a Canon PIXMA MX410 for $10 more. It's big. Bigger than I want. 3 or 4 inches taller and 4 inches deeper, so it hangs off the front of the microwave more than I'd like. But, it does have some really kewl features for an el cheapo all-in-one, like an Automatic Document Feeder which makes scanning load paperwork a snap. It also does automatic two-sided printing which is kinda kewl. It has built-in WiFi, but that's for use with a router, which I don't have in the van. I use the USB connection. It will print via Bluetooth, tho (with a $20 mini Bluetooth adapter), so you can print directly from the phone if you want. It will also scan and print a 2-1 or 4-1 page, where it will scan, say, 4 pages, and then reduce them and print them out on a single sheet of paper. We'll see if it holds up under Detroit pothole conditions, tho.
