The main draw is that Dual Function panel up front, which combines a 3-inch LCD with a unique set of hard keys that have dynamic displays below that change depending on what function you're trying to access."</em></p><p><img src="http://images.thoughtsmedia.com/resizer/thumbs/size/600/dht/auto/1294415481.usr20447.jpg" style="border: 1px solid #d2d2bb;" /></p><p>The paperless society is a myth. While paper is on its way out, especially when everyone and their hamster has some sort of connected electronic device, there still is a demand for scanning and printing and the MX882 looks like a pretty good choice for all-in-ones. It has more features and abilities than office printers five or ten years ago! I am also really glad to see that Ethernet connectivity (and Wi-Fi too) is becoming more common. In a world of multi-computer households, the one computer, one printer model seems wasteful so making multi-user printers standard is a Good Thing. Of course, that is if you still print stuff. I suspect that now that tablets are taking over the world, there will be even less that will need to be in dead tree format.</p>
