This is too general a question to be able to offer much help.

Do you want a laser (sharp text for business) or do you want color?  Or a color laser?
Do you do a lot of printing?  (Hundreds of sheets a month.)
Do you need an all-in-one printer?
Do you print photos?
Is it primarily for business?

What is your budget for a printer?

Most printers these days will be pretty easy to install on XP.  They will likely have a usb connection,
but some may have a centronics (parallel) connection.

You might be able to educate yourself at someplace like Tom's Hardware Guide, www.tomshardware.com, which
does hardware reviews.

Subject: [PCBUILD] Requesting a Printer Recommendation


My Lexmark X75 All In One Printer appears to have died (less than three years old).  It won't power up,
and people at Best Buy tell me it would cost almost as much to look at and repair as a new one.

Can someone please make a recommendation?  I seem to remember that Hewlett-Packard got less than good
reviews on this list.

I would need something with novice-simple installation.

Thanks for all your help, and that has been plenty.
