I can give you this excerpt from a listing of Vista compatible Hardware:

Multifunction (Scan/Print) + Fax (Optional)

* HP PSC 2175: basic functionality only, the software doesn't install.
* HP Photosmart C3140 All-In-One (Vista x86)
* HP Photosmart C3180 All-In-One (works perfectly with Vista drivers)
* HP Photosmart C5180 All-In-One
* HP OfficeJet 6110: works with pre-installed drivers. have not tested fax functionality.
* Lexmark X5470 - works fine with drivers available from Lexmark website
* Sharp AM-900 - scanner needs a update of driver from the device manager, and vista finds the updated version of driver automatically.
