...have always been fond of Epson products, even though my old printer was old as I stated, I had never had any problems with it, which compared to some friends is a big plus, so when I was looking at getting a new (preferably) photo printer, I had decided on an Epson! Thankfully my partner had been listening to me when I had been dropping hints, and already, even though Ive only had it since christmas I have been extremly pleased with the quality ...
...In my opinion, this Epson Stylus Photo R285 is the best photo printer that I have experienced (My friends have different ones, but I feel this one has just that extra bit of quality for the price) As long as you dont skimp on getting cartridges and photo quality paper, you cant really go wrong, believe me I am one very happy owner! ...

Advantages: Great quality prints
Disadvantages: A little slow but the best comes to those who wait!

...models I came across the Canon Pixma IP4500. I bought this printer from Ebuyer for £63.00 which was much cheaper than some of the well-known electrical / computer stores. The printers design is simple - the body is mainly black with silver surroundings. It has the usual on/off button, cancel/feed button, and a button to switch between input trays. It doesn't have any memory card slots but does have a PictBridge USB port. This model has two paper ...
...tell the difference between my canon photo print compared to a lab print). I do find the photo prints to be a lot lighter than on-screen as it uses auto-correcting which you can disable. Overall this is the best printer I have had in years and would recommend it to anyone doing a little more than general printing as the ink can be quite expensive. Best of all my Scrapbooking hobby is alive and kicking as I no longer need to wait for professional ... Read review

...☼ My long lived Epson C42 plus gave up the ghost a while back so I decided to invest in a new printer. I’ve stayed loyal to Epson as there were no alternatives similar in specification and ability out on the market just now in the same price bracket as the Stylus 1400. I chose this printer as I want a printer that can print high quality photographs from digital and scanned photographs, something capable of A3 print size to print technical ...
...at £9.45 each for oem Epson cartridges. ☼ Packaging ☼ The box it comes packed in is a bit bulky as it is an A3 printer though it features carry handles to make life easier.

My box contained: ☺Software CD ☺Six ink cartridges (described later) ☺Power cable ☺Warranty Card ☺Quick Start Guide ☺CD print tray contraption ... Read review

Advantages: Excellent Quality, Well Made, Good Value For Money
Disadvantages: None!

This is definately one of the best printers around! The sleek design of the product is what first hits you in the face. A small screen on the top, allows for easy viewing of your pictures before printing off. This screen has a simple button system underneath it which allows the user to totally control the print set-up from controlling which files are to be printed, to setting the printing quality! You maybe thinking 'but wont the screen get quickly ...
...off?' Well if you thought that then you are very wrong. In order to sit into the streamline shape of the printer, this screen folds back into the printer, protecting it when not being used. This printer, being a ink-jet printer, can produce stunning quality pictures at a reasonable speed rate. Altrhough it cannot produce documents at the same rate of a laser printer, this printer is definately a competitor! Set-up of this printer is simple, and ... Read review

...to buy an old canon bjc 80 or the likes. I then went onto ebay and searched for a portable printer, you can imagine all the junk that came up and then I saw it, the Canon Pixma IP90, looking very stylish, so like everything else I buy I searched the internet for information on it, and all the reviews I found were positive, albeit the printer was a bit pricey at £199 but I was not swayed and and kept hunting for the best price, in the end I bought ...
...for the pair for original canon but you can get generic replacements for a fraction of the cost, I personally use the original ones, but again I don't print hundreds of pages, just the average family use so it doesn't hurt me when I have to replace them. The print quality is really good from a compact ink jet printer, good enough to print decent charts, documents and even photos. The canon boasts print speeds of upto 16 pages per minute, this must ... Read review
