I'm looking to buy an All-In-One Printer with a document feeder and decent scanner. I bought an Epson Workforce 7720 Printer last year and it is a nightmare. I use more ink cleaning and aligning the print nozzles than I do actually printing. I don't use this for printing photographs, I have a Pro 100 for that, but occasionally when I print out an Obituary the persons image is terrible with color bars through it. If I run all of the maintenance tasks a couple of times it will print decently for a couple of days, but never longer than a week. then its the same thing over again,
I am going to replace it with another Brand of printer. Has anyone on here found a decent All-In-One w/document feeder that gives them next to no trouble. I had a HP Photosmart printer before the Epson for 12 years with never a problem, then one day it quit and I found a broken plastic gear inside and of course not repairable.
If anyone on here can recommend a printer please respond here or PM me, Thanks.

HP Color Laser Jet Pro MFP M277dw, or whatever the current model is. We've had it for about 4 years with no problems. It has fax, copy, scan, and auto feed. Not good for photos -- no laser printer is -- but excellent for everything else.

I've been running an HP 8600 Plus for almost 9 years now. Document feeder will copy and/or scan double sided if need be. It's reasonably quick and not particularly noisy. I THINK I could set it up to be a fax machine, but my phone service is now VOIP and I don't think it's just a matter of plugging it into one of the phone jacks on the wall. Luckily, I've had no need for fax since we gave up our copper land line. I do NOT use it for photo printing (have a Canon Pro 10 for that), but for any document work it has been terrific.

I have a Canon TR8520, it has a document feeder.
My previous Canon AIO (MX922 I believe) did double sided scanning, the TR8520 does not.
(Have to scan front, then back, then re-arrange and save.)
I miss the 922, it lost its marbles one day.

You are so right about Epson printers. I've had two and if they are not consistently used the nozzles will clog. I now have a Canon that gets rarely used but when I do use it I don't have to run through 2 to 3 nozzle cleanings.

Does this have a document feeder and do duplex scanning and printing? I’ll look it up, but you might be faster.

Ron 717 Loc: Pennsylvania

Thank you, I’ll check to see if they still sell that model or it’s equivalent.

When the Epson works correctly it’s a decent printer, but like I said, I have used more ink on cleaning then I have on printing.

Sorry about my replies, I hit reply instead of quote reply. I know better but had a senior moment.

Last week, I bought a HP Neverstop All-in-One Monochrome 1202W. Knew it would be a good choice not to have to buy expensive ink over the months and months. While trying to get the thing to work, it shut down my computer. On a reboot of my computer, the printer would grind away, and finally just shut down. I had both the computer and the printer plugged into my surge protector system. And yes, I downloaded all the recommended apps for the printer. By the way, the printer has no "Off or ON" button. So once it stops working, you can't do anything but plug it in or out...which did not turn on the printer. I have used HP for years without problems. Luckily, I bought the printer from Amazon Prime. Thus, I could return it once I further endured the repacking and hauling it out to UPS. Probably just one such printer; however, considering the stress and time wasted trying to get the printer to work--no more HP printers or any printer that does not have an "on or off switch" for me. By the way when I have to have color prints of high quality, I just upload my digitals to MPix.

Looking online, I am considering either a Brother color laser printer or an HP color laser printer. Still checking specs though. I might make a run to Best Buy to see them in person and hopefully run a test sheet or two. Both seem to have what I’m looking for. My last trip to see printers in person, I was shocked how cheaply printers seem to be made compared to my older printers that I have had.

I recently bought a canon MG3620 from Target. When I tried to connect it to my MacBook and download the driver, I got an error message that announced a “critical error.” It said to call a support number. When I did, the tech had me go through a bunch of things and he concluded my computer had a Trojan worm. He wanted me to proceed to investigate with him. I told him I would only deal with Apple and he hung up. I did some research and evidently this is a scam where he eventually would have charged me $99. Btw, I never have been able to connect and the printer is going back. Beware!

I have had great luck with my Epson 4550 Eco-Tank and it has saved more than $$$ than I can count by not using ink carts.

Check out Brother, we have been using them for our all-in-one for years, reasonable ink, this last one is good enough at photos to keep me from replacing my Canon photo printer that died , not that I print many photos now that I'm retired but the quality is there if I need it, reasonable price on the printers too.

Epson ET-2760. It's an all-in-one that users ink tanks, and it does double-sided printing beautifully. I've printed 2,359 pages with the original ink, and the black ink isn't at the halfway point yet. The colors are near 3/4 full. A new supply of ink cost me $62. I paid $226 last February.
