Members Opinions on a Wireless Printer

Question

I would like to buy a wireless printer, and the market is quite wide and varied.
Given the choice, I would appreciate any recommendations by the community as to what is a good option.

My requirements are simple...

Colour
Display Panel
Reliable
Good Build Quality
Price under £150 (You can, I am sure, do the necessary exhange rate).

I am not fussed on manufacturer, and since work will be paying for the ink, that cost is irrelevant.

What do you use that you would recommend within my parameters?

Thanks for any advice.

I rate EPSON ones - I'm on my third in 15 years, which says a fair amount about the reliability. The first died of mould due to being on a window sill and refused to feed paper. The second died when a cheap after market cartridge ripped out connection pins. Currently I have a BX305FW which works very nicely, and even has a sheet feeder on the scanner. Good print quality, will feed just about anything from 70gsm to 155, with a pretty straight feed path so it works well with labels too (unlike HP). Reasonably quiet too.

Only thing I find is that wired is a lot faster than wireless, even if the printer is 3 feet from the router.
