    Question Printer Recommendations

    I'm after a printer which will enable me to do everyday printing of word\excel doc's etc, but also high quality photo's. Obviously I will need to purchase glossy paper, not a problem. I'd rather not pay a small fortune for ink if possible. :thumbs

    Don't really want to spend over £100, any recommendations?

    The Espon R300 is rwhat I have got and it does the trick. Carts are cheap (about £10 for 2 full sets or remanufactured.) And it can print driect to CD if need be, and the Photo quality I find very good with the right paper. You should be able to pick one up for about £78 from Amazon.

    Incidently, I went for the ip4000 and have been rather chuffed with the quality, features and cheap ink on offer for it.

    R300 here and cant fault it yet. Go for the R200 if your not interested in a card reader tho..
