Would you buy a "Refurbished" printer?

JR.com is presently selling refurbished Canon i960 printers for $79.95. My old S820 now has a bad printhead and all my prints look like @#*%. It's time to bury the S820 since a new printhead runs around $75-80. I've heard great things about the i960 and I really can't afford to spend more than $100 right now for a new printer.

Has anyone had experience(s) buying a Canon factory refurbished printer? I would imagine it should be just like a new one performance-wise only a helluva lot cheaper. It also carries a Canon 90-day warranty.

Buy it, and give it 90 days.

I've bought plenty of refurbished stuff.
