Hi,
Looking at the post on mac mini setup pics, I wondered whether there were any printers out there that were designed to suit mac aestheticaly. Apple used to make printers - but I notice on the Apple store that they don't appear to now.

Does anyone know of any printers that suit the Mac design?

PS I have a mac mini myself - so a printer to suit that might be classed as a 'portable' printer.

Canon. Even when Apple "Made" them they were still Canon printers.

Apple never made Canon printers. If anything Canon made some or part of the printers that Apple sold.

Canon definitely seems to be a good tip - check out the Canon i70, i80 and i90 - definitely keeping with the style of the mini!

Gee you don't say. That is sorta what I was talking about when I said Canon made Apple printers.

No parts of it were not made by Apple, Canon made them for Apple and Apple but their logo on it and changed the name from Bubblejet to Stylewitter.

Just like Dell does now with Lexmark printers.

I find my HP LJ 1012 goes swell with my Mac.

Portable printers suck. They cost 2x-3x as much as comparable desk printer.

Is that a good thing because the junk they made for LaCie was a definite step down.

Well, I like the design (of the printer). The new drive design looks a bit plain.
