I am looking to get a laser printer, which scans, copies, and prints in both colour and black and white

there seem to be a few printers like this, but I cant really find one that has a build in Network Card, to connect directly to the network so we dont have to have a computer running it.

I have seen this printer :

can I buy a usb print server for this and will it still keep all of the functionality?

Thanks
Riley

I think the printer is an InkJet. HP OfficeJet Pro L7380 Multifunction
It's got USB so should work when connected to a network hub via a usb port.

I was thinking about getting the brother Brother DCP7010 but it isnt coour but it should be fine, but this doesnt have a built in USB network card, would it run on a parallel print server though?
