What is the best and smallest wireless home use printer?

What is the best and smallest wireless home use printer?
I need a wireless printer that prints text well and photos/graphics in an okay manner. I don’t want to print Photos! I don’t want a fax, a scanner, or a copier. It must be wireless!! It must be compact and reasonablly priced. I will use it at home for two lap top computers (no desk tops).

What do you recommend? How much will it cost? Where can I buy it?
I am aware I can adapt almost any printer into wireless, however, I want a printer that is made as wireless without having to purchase any additional device/add on/ or attachment. Please help!

Best answer:

Do not get Lexmark’s wireless printers. You will pay tooth and nail for the cartridges, plus according to oinkinkstore.wordpress.com there is a little bait and switch going on.

Pick any printer you want, and then get a wireless print server.

You can pick up the print server from sites like newegg.com or tigerdirect.com. Printer you can get from anywhere.

Cost for the server should be around 40-60 dollars.
