    Default Printer

    I am looking to purchase a dedicated printer. I am looking around but thought I would ask what others might recommend. Looking to spend around $250.00 for one give or take $50.00 either way. I have an all in one but one of my kids jammed the paper and the rollers work fine on regular paper but butcher any photo paper I try to use. So I would like just a printer and will use the all in one for most of my basic printing and stuff and the photo printer will be used by just me or my wife. Not brand loyal so open to any suggestions. The all in one is not worth the time nor money to fix it and still works great for everything else and starting to print my photos out so a good photo printer is something I would have been purchasing sooner or later anyway. Thanks.

    Well went out just to look at printers today and the last stop I found a great deal. Picked up the R1800 for $349.00 and it is eligible for the $100.00 mail in rebate Epson is offering on this printer. So basically it will cost $249.00, just cannot believe the deal, it was the last Unopened one that had in stock, they have 2 others but they are open box sales thus making them in illegible for the rebate.

    Why I always look through what they have, the salesperson was even surprised they had an un open one. Whoohooo, wow, cannot believe I have it, so that allowed me to buy roll of paper 13" x 32' and 50 sheets of 8.5" x 10" and all Ultra Premium Luster Paper and a set of ink. Went and saw the print Quality and was able to compare the Epson R2400, R1900 and R1800 and I am no expert but could not really see any difference but was wowed by them all, they all come out looking as good as any lab I have seen photos from.
