I use an epson WF-2650. It has bluetooth wireless, as well as being an all-in-one machine. It takes up very little room and has been worth every penny of the $79.

Got a hp 4500 printer/scanner wireless.the ink cartridge is how they make their money regardless what u buy and they built to where u cant fill'em urself.
I bought some ink from amazon very cheap and managed to squeze 40 to 60 more before the cartridge stops working.TallJoe Thanks this. -
I have an HP 8600. My wife found some real cheap ink cartridges on ebay for around $30 for all of them. I thought to myself this ought to be good, but they ended up working fine.

I run the Samsung m2070W. I had to use a pure sine inverter to power it up though.

HP LaserJet P1102W
Hands down the most bullet-proof, cost efficient printer I've had in the truck. Toner cartridges are $70 and in the 4 years or so I've had it, I've been through the one it came with and am still working on the first toner I had to buy.
The only caveat... it is not Android friendly.
They are still available on Amazon for around $154.

Another option is to find out if your Android device is OTG-ready, and then if it is, get the OTG adapter cable for a few bucks off of Amazon, which then allows you to plug USB memory sticks or printers etc, right into your phone.
Then you just get your standard cheap compact $35 Walmart printer, and plug the Android device in.
You will of course have to test this, since not everything works as expected lol
But the investment is much less than with wireless printers...
Oh, and I use the Camscanner app on my phone for scanning. Works better than many scanners I have ever used, unless you have a bunch of stuff to scan.Jagsfan, Dave_in_AZ and rabbiporkchop Thank this. -
Epson xp 400 from wally world, about 50 bucks all in one with wifi and Bluetooth, separate color cartridges and will run off a little 150 watt inverter if needed
TallJoe and Dave_in_AZ Thank this.
