which is the best printer for everything

I want to purchase an "affordable" printer strictly for B&W photo printing and am not certain whether pigment-based printers such at Epson's C84 or dye-based printers such as Canon's i860 would be best for that purpose. I like the concept of pigment inks because of their stability, but have...

i'm beginning to experiment with digital B&W. which printer would you recommend for this? I know that certain companies make special inks just for this purpose, but i think they only work in epson printers. is epson the way to go or can the the new canon's 850i/950i handle this job as well? thanks...

I have a NEC 1800 which works OK, at least on standard gummed C-10 envelopes (though not on self-sealing envelopes) but it has a limit of 5 to 7 envelopes in the tray. I have to nursemaid the thing, it's a pain. Plus it is reluctant to feed the first envelope off the packet of 5 or 6 that you put...

I just bought a Lexmark Forms Printer 2580n 9pin printer to print on 3 Part Carbonless Paper. When I first purchased the printer the print quality was fine. This printer is heavly used. 4 months later the print quality is now crap. I've replaced the ribbon twice already. Even after a fresh...

Are there some models of printers that can clean the printheads better than others? I have a Canon i350 and have used up almost all of my ink in the process of cleaning the printheads and with wasted printouts from clogged heads. I print about once a week and the air is dry in the winter. Is any...

I'm unclear whether there's a difference between a standard inkjet color printer which will produce photos and a special printer for photos. I need an inexpensive printer that will give me prints of about the same quality I get at the kiosks in drugstores, etc. Any suggestions welcome.

I need to print a bunch of standard 3.5" x 5.5" US Post Office pre-stamped post cards (yes, I am aware that I could print 8.5 x 11's and cut em and stamp em, but that's not what I need). Not all printers can handle that size. I want a printer that will do the job quickly and inexpensively, without...

Can anyone recommend a bulletproof printer solution that can print on card size stock, such as 4" x 4"? I have to print directly onto pre-cut card sizes and doing it with my high end Xerox and HP Netowrk printers is a menu-nightmare that usually ends in an error message. Almost all printers claim...

Can anyone tell me what is a good printer that accepts the cheap refills at the same time? I know most printers can accept refills but I have an old HP 692c that you have to buy a tool for to open the tank and it is very messy and hard to do it for, so I want to stay clear of any printers that it's...

My beloved EPSON Color Stylus won't print yellow any more. It has served me well in the past 10 years. It is time for me to buy a new color printer. My only requirement is that I can refill with OEM ink. I know that many new printers use computer chip to prevent people from doing that....

Buying a new printer, I want to be able to refill the cartridges. Currently using a Canon S520, which has 4 easily refilled tanks. Any advice from experienced refiller?

I'm sick of being ripped off by Lexmark and don't want to buy another cartridge for my X2230 Can anyone recommend an alternative printer/scanner which doesn't have to be top quality or lightning fast. I just want something that I don't have to be concerned about the cost of ink cartridges all the...

I've spent several days researching the various bulk/refill options for Canon printers. From the various posts I've read, compatible cartridges are not the way to go, but refilling is. In the US, what provides the best match to OEM inks, and which provides the best value? Target printer is the...
