The advantages are far too many to list here. The reason you should try it now, is that a good scanner and a bit of film and processing adds up to the price of getting a DSLR. And that scanner will likely be obsolete in a year or two when you do go digital, but your digital camera will be still going strong, and at the least be a great backup or you can sell it. Used scanners are cheap though maybe you should get a used one from someone who went digital. Inkjet printers are only good for fun stuff, giving away small photos and proofing. However, most photo labs will make great photos of any digital file. I would not spend much on a printer at this point.
