What printer should I buy??

My old printer (Lexmark X5150) is dead and I need a new one. Does anyone have any recommendations? I primarily use my printer for standard black & white text printing, however I do occasionally use color. I need it to be able to scan (fairly well). I would prefer to have a fax and/or copy function, but it's not necessary. I have a dedicated photo printer, which I hardly even use, so the ability to print photos is not at all necessary.

Any suggestions??

    Its funny, My Lexmark broke down on me several months ago too. I found out that Lexmark, Primarily their low-end printers, Are TOTAL CRAP! If you want a reliable Lexmark printer, You must spend a good amount of cash. Black and white is all I use , So I got myself a "Samsung ML-3051ND". Very stable and reliable printer! (With a few added perks) And not too expensive!!! I got it at staples. I recommend you visit staples.ca to check it out yourself. As far as scanning goes, I have an "Epson Stylus CX4600". This printer also does photocopies, But because ink is so expensive, I do jobs outside of scanning, Very sparingly. Hope you find what your looking for!
