Which printer ?

[VK]

Hi all!

I'm looking for a multlifunctional printer (printer, scanner, copier)
with following features:

- Network (preferably Wi-Fi)
- CD/DVD print
- Film scanner unit

A Canon MP800R has it all, but it now has been replaced with other models!

Probably the best current match to my needs is a Canon MP600R, but it
doesn't have a film scanner unit :-(((

Suggestions ?


Any chance a film unit can be installed manually in Canon's MP-series ?

Apparently, you could still buy it at few online places:

Does no one check amazon.com?

Purchasing separates are better. You can then get the best scanner and
the best printer. When one needs to be replaced you do not have to junk
the other. The only real case for a MFP is severe space requirements or
for a less expensive ATF.

Indeed, available from sevral of it's affiliates and some much
cheaper than listed above.

Thank you all for links, but I should have mentioned, that US is
off-limits for me (high taxes and transport fees). And prices in
European Union are bit too high.
Th cheapest I could find was at german Amazon for 377€ + 20€ for
shipment. (~500USD)
I can get a MP600R for ~ 333USD incl. shipment in Denmark (where I'm
currently staying)
All I need is a film unit for it, and ~170$ (500$-333$) seems a bit too
high of a price to pay for one.....

What other alternatives are out there ?
I've considered a separate 35mm film scanner, but they are way too
expensive even comparing to MP800R's price...

yes, there are some fladbed-scanner solutions with film adapters, but
it's an overkill to buy an extra A4 scanner just for the sake of the
film adapter where space on my desk is playing a role too
