I love HP ink jet printers however the last one I got doesn't work with my Mac Mimi. Make sure that whatever you get isn't just compatible but very compatible! Dh has just ordered me another printer!
Another thought if your new inkjet doesn't work well to make your labels you could keep your laser printer for just that.
I've been thinking that I'll use my scanner for scanning templates from all of the magazines I've got! Especially now that the PC has got me using templates.
