HP has a number of new printers with a touch screen display. The HP 7955e is a choice product on the smile site, and uses two ink cartridges. 

You do not have to sign up for the ink program.

@Nuttmeg that printer on Amazon's website is $149 which is more than I want to spend. I'll checkout Hp's website to see if it's less money there.

I am an HP fan from Way Way Back. I ventured away once and bought a Canon and regretted it. My printing needs are much less than they used to be.  I used to buy Officejet printers but the one I bought several months ago from Walmart at just under $100 was the Envy 6052e all in one inkjet photo printer. I have not printed any photos with it and I would be shocked if they were of decent quality on photo paper. But I guess decent is in the eye of the beholder.  It's not as fast as my OfficeJets but it's plenty fast enough for my needs now. It has a small footprint and looks nice and sleek. It has automatic double-sided printing.  It doesn't have a screen but it does have a control panel.  It's Wi-Fi.   I sent a printing job to it last night from my bed.

All my higher end hp's had touch screens.  I rarely used it though since I mostly printed from my computer. I can print with my current printer without my computer by using the control panel.

Ugh, I can nearly have a stroke talking about the price gouging of printer ink!

Yes, I know, but the printer does come with a touch screen display and ink cartridges.

I buy larger ticket items on a zero interest plan.

@Nuttmeg  I bought an HP printer from HSN when it was a TS..It is an HP Envy Photo 7800. HSN recently had a HP printer for $49.00. 

 

I signed up for instant ink program because it is only $5.02 per month. At the end of each year, I order ink cartridges that cost me nothing. So, I figure it all weighs out plus you can get free customer support if you need help.

Shop for INK first and then decide which printer to get. Ink is where your money goes.
