Any recommendations on portable printers?
 
I know this has been asked before but I was wondering if there are any new recommendations.

I have a canon i80 portable printer. I think that canon and the chiropractors assocation of america got a thing going. These "portable" printers are not that portable. I cannot really carry it in my bag - I have to carry it in my roll on. It does fit in my computer bag but it just heavy. Well, it has seen over 200K miles of travel in the last two years and it is not holding up well. I need a new one. Anyone have any recommendations.

I'm a huge HP printer fan. This summer I replaced my old HP 310 (since I can no longer buy cartridges) with the 460. It's smaller and lighter than the old one; really like it. Although it would fit in my computer briefcase, I've never tried to carry it that way; I always put it in my small rollaboard with the laptop; it's 4.6 pounds.

I think that it is about the same size as my canon i80.

I think even your chiropractor would want one of these: http://www.printdreams.com. The video demo of the PRINTBRUSH looks very promising. But you'll have to be patient, very patient (look at the expected availability date).

Pentax - if you're really mobile
 
I have one of these: http://www.pentaxtech.com/Products/pocketjets.html which I carry wherever I travel. They don't come smaller, compacter and - in my mind - better for those on-the-road-must-have-in-dead-tree situations.

Plus, no ink to leak (and no liquids to smuggle through the insecurity control points).....
