I don't have one because I don't have anything worthy of printing yet. :icon_lol:

Unless you print your photos regularly its probably a lot cheaper having them printed and shipped to you from an internet site.

We have an Epson R220. Six ink cart's cost more than the printer bought from the factory! Thank goodness for refillers!

yup those epsons in my pic $1,000.00 per set
but you do get quality
actually 8 cartridges light black, light light black, black,
yellow, light cyan, cyan, Magenta and Light magenta
but beats a color cartridge

My six are the same as your eight, but without the ligher shades of black. But wouldn't that be grey and light grey...?:isadizzy:

If a print is exceptional and worthy of enlargement, I save it to media and have Talton Studios in Winston-Salem do it. Otherwise, I use Ritz and print my own. Their prints are much better than ink-jet and more durable, not to mention cheaper in the long run with the high cost of inks. I never use my printer for photos, only CD jackets and written material mainly.

All I do is buy the photo quality paper and use the same standard HP inks for my printer.

Seems to work, but I don't print that many photos.

I still have a film 35 Canon EOS Rebel ... So I trip to Walgreens and get them produced to CD ...
