Kodak ESP 9

The Kodak ESP 7 is an all-in-one, color-photo network inkjet printer designed for high-quality document/image printing coupled with massive savings on ink.

Not only does the ESP 9 print, copy, and scan high-resolution & borderless photos (+documents), but also the ESP 9 adds along 14.4kbps faxing. Plus, the ESP 9 supports a wide range of connectivity, including 802.11b/g, Ethernet (RJ-45), USB, and PictBridge. Most notable about the Kodak ESP 9 is its one-touch control panel, designed for simplifying user operation. The Kodak ESP 9 retails for $299.99 and comes with a 1 year limited warranty.
