If it's not too demanding or you don't need to do high volumes of pages an all-in-one print/scan/copy device would probably suit you fine.

Best to get one that tales seperate colour ink cartridges - epson and canon and lexmark do some very reasonable ones at under £100.

I'm sure I saw a couple of Epson models at very good prices in their sale recently so check them out online on the Argos website and see what you think.

Shari - this looks like a pretty good deal to me - reduced from £100 to £60 :-

You'll be stuck with buying a new one then. Vista doesn't have much support for 'older' hardware.

Can you 'recycle' the working one to somebody who would like a scanner?
