Get away from ink. The price on mid-level laserjet printers have come way down and the replacement cartridges are well in line of ink and you, on average, have less trouble with them. Ink cartridges are a raping. Cheaper to buy a new printer than the replacement ink for them.

Wow, I think I'll hang around this thread for a minute. I've learned a bit already.

I just got a new Canon PIXMA MG4220 printer. It scans, copies, prints. Didn't see the need to have to fax capability.
It's also wireless-capable, but I'm running our two laptops plus the desktop through a print server. Yeah, it's an inkjet. But it works nicely, although I haven't tried it yet on photo/graphics prints. This unit replaces an age old Epson Stylus 880, which I got as a throw in with my first Dell desktop eons ago. Replacement ink cartridge prices seem to be reasonable.

And for quick printing, non professional stuff, set your print quality on fast draft black and white. Saves a TON of ink.
Mine is the HP officejet J6480. It even prints decent photo's too.

If you want color, you're likely looking at an ink jet printer. I have had an HP 5610 that scans copies, prints and faxes. I can't tell you how convenient it is to be able to copy and fax from home at times. The quality is decent, if I wanted a photo printer I would buy a dedicated photo printer. I buy my cartridges from HP Direct, they are cheaper than Wal-Mart when they send me coupons in email

For less than $200 you can buy a Brother COLOR laser printer that will also scan and copy. Ink sucks.

Pretty sure they aren't color laser printers.
