Printer Upgrade



We have been talking about getting a wireless printer for a while, so last night we went to OfficeMax and got one. It's an HP Officejet Pro 8600. It's a major improvement over our old one. This model was "on sale" for $149.99. That's what most stores were asking for this model. But they were also offering $50.00 off if you traded in your old printer. Basically we paid $100.00 for the new one.

So now, both Sue and I can print documents from our laptops or my smartphone using our Verizon wi-fi. The printer also scans and copies like our old one and also faxes (if you have a land line). We just have to decide on an out-of-the -way spot for the printer that is still accessible. It will be easier when we get back to our house in Ohio. It's just nice not to have to be wired to it to make it work. It also does double-sided copies with out having to re-insert the paper. Cool!!
