I was looking at wireless printers. Couple choice out there, didn't know if someone has one and can recommend a certain one.

Leaning towards an HP. Maybe this one: HP Photo Smart C7280 or maybe this one HP Officejet J6480

Wireless printers can and often are an abject pain in the backside. They don't work with all routers, they often don't want to work at all and they're incredibly awkward to get then working again when they've decided they don't want to play anymore. You have to reset them, then set them up again, then tell any firewall software on the computer to stop interfering... I'd never have one, I'd rather run extended USB cable(s) around the floor.
