Wi-fi?
For me to connect wirelessly to this printer, do I need a wireless router, or can I connect my laptop directly to the printer?
Thanks!

This is an area where I believe multitouch screens should be used more effectively.
The LCD panel that flips up should house all controls, if possible. You can remove all that clutter of buttons and have a much larger screen.
As a Bonus idea, it would be great if I could see the document I'm scanning in the LCD panel and then move or zoom into the precise area that I wish to be scanned - its amazing nobody has done this yet. Plus would love to see it in photocopiers too!Imagine that you can see the image is the right way up too before you scan it so you can flip it over while at the panel and crop it exactly how you want.
