My HP C5180 works perfectly both for scanning and printing, plus I have
it network-connected so other people can also use it. It installed
trivially with hplip. I have no problem with the print quality but I'm
not doing photo work. I would probably go for another HP next time,
despite the horrendous cost of the ink cartridges.

That is great, but while a neighbor has one of those, I didn't see one on the
display shelves yesterday. Probably that model is out of the supply
pipelines today.
