Mini printer query

Anyone had any experience/knowledge of a rechargeable 'mini printer' that you could pack in a suitcase/briefcase perhaps? I am sure I read something about them somewhere but googling hasn't turned up anything just yet. A combined scanner would be even more useful if it existed.

SIZE MATTERS!

It would be used for typing out reports 'in the field'.

Any pointers as to the path to follow would be appreciated.

Canon IP90, if you can find anyone who stocks the rechargeable battery, or new HP460, already has battery inside, so a bit bigger; we've got both for the a/c. Both have bluetooth.

Canon Selphy, I think. Well, some versions of it anyway. Isn't email to base a more manageable option?

It looks good and very portable but slightly pricey ?

HP450 / 460

I've had an HP450 for a couple of years, and take it with me any time I'm away from base for a while and might have to type up quotes, etc. The 460 is probably the later version.

Works nicely, just park it beside the laptop with the I/R ports lined up, and print.

My only problem is that it's a little bit reluctant to feed paper in sometimes - probably needs servicing/cleaning, as it gets chucked in the car and I get in some very dusty environments.

When flying it gets packed in my suitcase as much "in the middle" as I can.

Travelling by car, I have one laptop bag for the laptop, and another for the printer, laptop charger, printer charger, phone charger, digi camera and charger, "UK" phone cable, "US" phone cable, mains plug adapters and extension . . .
