Wireless Printer Options?

I'm considering the purchase of a Wireless Printer so I can print from my media center PC in the living room to a printer in the next room. I know there are several options out that have this built in but am looking for possible reviews or suggestions from the community before I make the purchase.

So... have you used a wireless printer? What would you suggest?

I have clients that have used the HP wireless functions on the 7410 and 7680 models. Similar to the 7780.

All of these connect horribly via wireless.
The company that has purchased these models made a mistake, because these type of HP All-in-one type printers break down really easily.

HP does make good printers that will print only. But when they are a type of combination machine, that where it has problems.

If you dont need all the scanning and fax features, get yourself just a regular printer.
I have an EPSON MX700 and can not complain, but then again have not gone wireless on it yet.

Or maybe consider a wireless home router with an integrated print server? Then you can print from wireless PC's but also from PC with a wired connection to the network. And you can take any printer you like.

That is certainly a option and something I might consider doing... the only reason I was thinking about a wireless printer is ease of setup. After the headaches I have gone through setting up my Media Center being able to just plug and play a wireless printer would be nice. I would have to rewire the place a little for a router option as I want to place the printer in a room that is on the other side of the house to my current router setup.
