do u want a colour multifunction or a black and white device.

if u r purchasing the product for photocopy purposes then go for a laser black and white mfd from hp. DO NOT BUY an inkjet colour mfd as it is not worth the money. the speed is slow and printing and copying costs are high

products are available from hp, samsung, brother.....i have an hp 3030 and its worth every penny i have spent on it

I need a color printer cum scanner.. i hv loads of work 2 take a print and scan.. so reliability is more needed. Heard HP's Cartridges are higher. And Canon is the best in the market. Got these det frm a local store. Am i correct.

I have also started this topic in Q & A. Dont go for a Printer+Scanner. Buy Separate ones. If ur printer goes, there is a possiblility that ur complete instrumet will be of no use.

Separate ones are always better. This question has been answered many times over. Why don't you take a search for MFD at this forum? You will get instant answers from the search results :)
