mini A4 printer with wireless functioning?

Archived from groups: comp.periphs.printers (More info?)

Hi

This is all a bit new to me so sorry if any of these questions are
stupid.

I'm looking for a really small neat tiny A4 printer. Small as
possible, maybe a detachable paper loader or something. I live in a
little place and only need to print very occasionally, so something I
can just pull out would be very handy.

It would also be great if it worked wirelessly. I already have wifi
802.11g - is there an easy way to make that work, or is bluetooth the
way to go?

How small do you want? Would you be happy with something that was a
front loader that you can put into a stereo stack.

My ip3000 I just measured at being 172mm high 420mm wide. Its not the
smallest but there are two printers they make that are wireless... the
ip4000R which is still sold and the ip5200R. Dimentions should be
virtually identical. 801.11g if i'm not mistaken, not bluetooth. The
top feeder folds down and doesn't need to be used. If it wasn't for
the fact that I enjoy using the top feeder I would put this unit in a
stereo stack. Envelopes, photo paper, regular paper goes in the bottom
tray. Depth I measure at 270mm but add 91mm for overhang of the paper
tray.
420mm x 270mm x 172mm

Need smaller? HP Deskjet 450cbi about
338mm x 81mm x 165mm. Bluetooth rather than WiFi, so you won't enjoy
the range that you otherwise would. Battery operated as well, top
loader IIRC. Don't know much about these portable printers. I forget
which model I had to pickup because I needed winxp-64 support, I think
it was the 450cbi but i'm suffering model number overload at the
moment.

HP Deskjet 6840 450mm x 367mm x 144mm wireless networking onboard...
not a portable printer but smallish.

HP Photosmart 8050 464mm x 228mm x 157mm optional blue tooth... not a
portable printer but smallish.
