@dhwild: "My current printer needs replacing and so I have been looking at the
possibilities. The idea of a wi-fi "all-in-one" seems attractive; has
anyone had experience of such a machine for which printer drivers are
available on RISC OS and Linux?
I realise that scanning wouldn't work on RO, but that doesn't matter as
files can always be transferred over the local network.

If you have a PC, Uniprint was the solution here. Allowed me to buy a
cheap laser which had no RISC OS driver.

Your headers say RISC OS 6.14 so I expect you are using a RiscPC.
I'm not aware of any RISC OS compatible Wi-Fi AIO's but WiFi can be added to
any printer with a server.
We have a range of AIOs that we have RISC OS drivers for and some can scan
to Flash card so could be used as a scanner! 
If you give us a call we can discuss the options

My PC is a laptop which is on only when required and Uniprint wouldn't
allow for printing from Linux. :-((

Then you need to entreat the Linux community to produce a functional
equivalent!
Let me know when it's done!

I do not think they would be impressed by an idea that has been 
standard Unix functionality for decades. Instead of using a bitmap as 
print job interchange format as Uniprint does, Unix uses PostScript. 
You can generate that easily from RISC OS, send that to a printer 
queue and the queue knows how to convert it for the locally attached 
printer.

Currently I use a HP PhotoSmart 2575 all in one.
This can be printed to from RISC OS using either Jonathan Briggs HP 
drivers which get much better results than the standard RISC OS PDFs.  
Alternatively you can use GuttenPrint for better results.
Scanning can be achieved by using the printer control panel to scan to 
the printer's memory card slot.  This can then be transferred either 
across the network to your RISC OS system or via a USB card slot.

Hi,
I have a HP Photosmart C6280 All-in-One and it works fine with my 
Iyonix 5.14/15, via USB.
It registers as a mass storage device on my Iyonix, so I can scan to 
card and transfer the scan back to the Iyonix, work on the resultant 
image and re-send it back to the card in the printer as a JPG, where I 
can then print it out at top quality.
I also use it to scan written pieces of work to card and transfer it 
to the Iyonix, where I can use OCR software before sending it back to 
the printer to print out.
He who always has things in stock can provide a driver which prints 
out fast to a reasonable(not photo) quality, at up to 600dpi.
The printer is also excellent for copying photos and text.
Regards
Joe Robson"

I'm running the C7180 under RISC OS 5.14, Vista and Ubuntu 9.04 Linux.  
For RISC OS I'm using Gutenprint 2.32, but I don't / can't use the 
scanner or fax from RISC OS.  It has 6 individual ink cartridges, card 
reader, USB, Ethernet, WiFi 11g and bluetooth connectivity.  It also 
has a duplex attachment for automatic dual-sided printing (extra).  
Conveniently (as with most HPs) it has front feed and eject of the 
paper, so it doesn't need much room above/behind it and fits into some 
shelves above my desk with room to open the scanner lid far enough to 
insert/retreive papers.

Indeed.  I'm fairly sure I was doing something very similar to this (using
SuSE 7 and RISC OS 4.mumble-Select, FWIW) around 2002.  I don't any more, but
can't see why it shouldn't still work.
