Right now, the Canon Pixma TS6520 has dropped to $79 (was $150) at Amazon .

This wireless color inkjet handles printing, scanning, and copying, with automatic two-sided printing to save on paper and a 1.42-inch OLED display for checking ink levels and adjusting settings without needing a phone app.

View Deal Why we recommend it Canon's PIXMA series has built its reputation on being the printer most people default to for home use, and the TS6520 keeps that formula simple: reliable printing and scanning, automatic duplexing that saves paper without extra steps, and setup that requires little more than connecting to Wi-Fi.

For students heading back to school or anyone who just wants a printer that works without fuss, that simplicity is the whole appeal.

The compact design and OLED display are nice touches at this price.

Many budget all-in-ones skip a proper display entirely, and being able to check ink levels and adjust settings without opening an app on your phone is a small but genuinely convenient feature.
