Small printer/scanner

Looking for advice on purchasing a small compact printer copier scanner for our motorhome. Any advice would be appreciated, thank you

I just transferred from the 18 wheeler to our Motor Coach a cheap & simple HP printer/copier/scanner..
Will only scan/copy one page at a time but gets the job done..I think it cost $29 at Target..

I've had and still have them all. The one I think is best 4 what you need is.
Epson Expression ET-2650 EcoTank Wireless Color All-in-One Small Business Supertank Printer with Scanner and Copier. Love the tank system, buy ink bottles $10.00 ea. The bottle eco tank ink will not dry out like cartridges. Nice square footprint wireless. Eco printing Machine! Safe Travels.

I got the HP Deskjet 3752 from Wally World. It's pretty small, wireless and cost around $30-35.

This is what I bought...rechargeable and works anywhere. A bit pricey but everything that works correctly is.

Jamie, it doesn't have the scan feature. I like the scan option also, as I scan receipts, camp maps and brochures as we travel into a data base. It's amazing how many piles of colorful papers we accumulate as we travel. How many times do you clear the table of these just to eat?

I now stay away from all Ink cartridge printers. If not frequently used cartridges dry up.... waste of big $$$ buying those tiny things.

You're right Jamie...I read "scan to email". Jeffrey...it's for a camper...they're looking for small...everything about campers is a sacrifice.

It is small. I also like things that work when you need them. Maybe Thor can add Axxera printers in the 2019 Models....

I think you’ll be happy with the Envy. We’ve had the Envy 4512 for some time and it has worked flawlessly. It’s light-weight and fits in a small space. True, the cartridges are costly but they last awhile.

Thanks Bill/Kathy, we have been practicing with it in the house prior to hitting the road and it seems to work well.

Carrot Ink sell the cartridges for my old Cannon for $0.89 each delivered. I don't find that expensive. Their ink still makes great 4x6 prints that hold up well over time.
