Recommend me a printer

So, with the family printer dead and the backup printer also apparently dead, we need something new.
Stuff I pretty much need:
- Wireless printing. This isn't a 100% must, but I would have to buy a new USB cable because I guarantee whatever the printer comes with won't be long enough to reach the computer. If I do get one without wireless, it needs to be a front-loader.
- Copying/scanning
Stuff that would be nice but I don't need:
- Automatic duplex printing (the kind where it yanks it back in and prints on the other side)
Price point: Pretty sure the 'rents will balk at paying more than $200. (Maybe a good printer these days needs to be that much, though? This is the first time I am shopping for one in 5 years)
I tried looking on Newegg but it seems like the reviews are kind of all over the place (or maybe I wasn't drilling down categories right).

Still chugging along with my HP 6980 that's 5 years+ now.

It even does duplex printing. How often do you all print stuff?
Owning your own printer is a mug's game.
Oh, and I can't print until 8pm when daughter goes to bed. Got to get home to make dinner.
Just saying there are some use cases for having a printer.
You must be one o' them whippersnappers who keeps everything in the clouds!
I still buy CDs...
I also have a wonderful Canon multifunction printer/scanner unit sitting next to me that hasn't been used in years because refilling the ink costs one hundred and fifty dollars.
