Assignment
You will research and recommend two printers for a small medical reporting agency.

The medical reporting agency needs to print not only standard documents but also high quality photograph images and graphical reports on legal, executive, and standard size paper. The medical reporting agency also needs to be able to scan photographs and documents at high resolution. The printer should also have wireless capability for their wireless users.
The medical reporting agency has set aside $2,500.00 for the two printers. However, the monthly budget for paper and ink should be no more than 20 cents per

Part 2
You need replacement batteries for several Dell Precision M4400. What's the vendor's part number and price for this battery?
What's the voltage and power capacity of the battery?
Step 2 Search the manufacturer's Web site for information on memory. If that isn't available, flip your browser over to www.kahlon.com to check RAM price and availability. If the site isn't available, perform a Google search to find other Web sites that sell laptop memory. Then answer the following questions.
Your client has a Dell Precision M4400 with 1 GB of RAM. How much RAM can you install? How many sticks of RAM will it take to upgrade this machine to a respectable 4 GB of memory, and how much will it cost?
Stay where you landed in your search for memory upgrades. Does the vendor have replacement or additional hard drives available as well? If not, try www.kahlon.com, but now research possible hard drive upgrades for the Dell Precision M4400 the client owns. Answer this question:
The client's Dell Precision M.4400 laptops have 160-GB hard drives plus a currently unused modular media bay that could be used to house a second hard drive. How much would it cost to add a second
3.20-GB hard drive to the Dell?
