Best Photo Printer?
Hi guys,
My humblest apologies if this has been asked before, which I am sure it has, but I want to know what the best photo printer is, for the PC. If the answer is an Epson, then what's the next best thing? I'm looking for: -inkjet -A4 -mainly for text ....but having spent £1000 on a digital camera, I would like something that will print images which I can keep for the rest of my life, so I want something which gives excellent results in the highest possible resolution with best photo replication ability. I'm happy to spend anything between £200 - £500 (approx $300-750) I have to buy it today which doesn't give me much time to read reviews etc. ink usage, I wont print more than half a dozen full size photos per month. Many thanks in advance ~Rob |

I love the i900d, but if you've got that kind of money to spend, look at
the new color lasers. At 1200 dpi, they look awesome. If you still want an ink jet printer, go with Canon. They are finicky about paper, but the results are indistinguishable from cellulose photo.

But if there isn't the time, I'd choose a Canon printer (assuming Epson is not preferred). I have a Canon i960 and love it , , , great photos and reasonably fast text. John |

fast text. Im not worried about speed or price much, just quality and it sucks that I dont have the time to research this properly. I found a review here http://www.photo-i.co.uk/ of the I950 which they say is the best photo printer available. I asume your i960 is ... better? I need to decide on a model, and then find someone who stocks it, then race over there like a mad hatter and snatch it up. |
