HP 1350 Replacement recommendations?

I have the HP PSC 1350 AIO printer, but mine is not currently working
properly, and the model has been discontinued. I was wondering if
anyone could recommend a replacement printer either HP or any other
brand. HP says the PSC 1600 series replaces it, but it doesn't have
automatic document feeding(ADF) like the 1350 does. I want something
with ADF and around the same dimensions, not more than 9(H) by 17(L) by
16(W), that will give me similar image quality, and that doesn't cost
more than two hundred dollars. It also needs to have the same AIO
features the 1350 has.

Any Hewlett Packard AIO under $350 will take the microscopic 22 or 93
color cartridge, which has 5 ml of ink divided for three colors. You
can get the 5610 for $150 which will take the 56 large Black tank, but
only the tiny color tank. I would suggest trying to find an older 5510
which took both the 56 and 57, but as it's discontinued, you'd have to
look on eBay or such.

Wrong dimensions. I said not more than 9(H) by 17(L) by
16(W).

If you get one of the small copiers like the 1410 or the 1510v, then
expect to pay several hundred dollars in ink per year unless you
refill. If you do lots of prints, expect to spend thousands. Even if
you refill, the tanks are so small that it's hard to catch it before
it runs dry, which can burn out the printhead and force you to buy
another printer.

None of the ones in that size will have ADF. Your best bet is to check
online for older printers. I think checking out a firm that supplies
office tech might be able to supply an older model, maybe even the one
you have. Also try eBay.

The printhead is built into the cartridge, so burning it out would only
require buying another cartridge, not "force you to buy another
printer".

That's what I meant to type, I had just realized I mistyped it as I
was heading out to run errands today. It will require another
cartridge.

These tiny HP cartridges are really starting to bug me, I keep getting
calls from customers asking about whether their printer might be
defective because they have to buy ink every week, or even more often.
"I don't want to spend more than $80 on a printer" turns into "I'm
spending $80/month on ink". Printers are a commodity that many people
don't research well, and the companies know it.
