 Yes,
you can
get a good wireless printer for under $100. There are some
cheaper entry-level Wi-Fi printers, such as Dell 313w and HP Photosmart
C4780 and C4795, but their reviews are not very good. We have also
avoided inkjet printers that cost a lot to operate: see this guide on how to minimize the costs of operating
your printer. Here are three well-reviewed printers that you can
buy
today, one laser and two all-in-one inkjets. They all cost under $100
(prices as
of October 6 - subject to change) and should cost you less than 3
cents per B&W page to operate (using re-manufactured cartridges):
