Hi Tristram.
For what its worth, I use a Canon Pixma IP4600, a year or so out of date now
but it still is probably the best inkjet I've owned as far as driver
accessibility is concerned. I can access information like the ink levels,
all the dialog boxes for settings and the printer status and its all pretty
standard where controls are concerned. I don't bother with the additional
software that comes with the printer for photo management and disk label
printing however. One final thing, this printer is automatically recognised
by Windows 7, so the driver is automatically downloaded and installed the
first time you plug it in.
All the best and I hope this helps you.

Dear Fellow Listers
I would be curious to know whether any of you can help me out with a query
with respect to an accessible printer recommendation. The problem these
days is that ranges change so often and unless you are a PC reviewer the
only time you come across these items is by buying one or seeing somebody
else's that works particularly well.
I would be interested in canvassing any good solid opinion on which might be
a good accessible inkjet or laser printer that you have found that works
well with your screen reader be it JAWS or Windows-Eyes etc. I am less
concerned about the external hardware aspect of accessibility as this is
often limited anyway by a couple of buttons and LEDs which some may not see
at all. In particular I am interested to know whether notification of ink
levels is accessible through driver software of your unit and also any
general maintenance (particularly head alignment and cleaning) are also
similarly nicely accessible.
If you have brought printer within the last year or preferably six months
you can recommend and can report its make and model as fulfilling the
general requirements with anything else you might have to say about your
unit I would very much welcome the opinion. If you would rather not reply
to the list please contact me directly at
Tristram.llewellyn@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx however I am sure the list would also
benefit from such information as we collectively come up with.
Regards.
