I'm sorry if this thread has been made a bunch of times on here but I'm new (1st post!). I looking for a good printer because my current printer at home just isn't cutting it. I plan to use it only for printing covers, so I'm looking for a good printer under $50. Also what do you use for paper? Thanks for helping a cover printing noob! ;D |

I use a Canon ip4500, makes great prints. The only problem is that the ink tends to be expensive, but that's a problem with all home printers. For cover paper I use Epson Presentation Paper Matte, using the "matte photo paper" settings for the Canon printer. Print fidelity looks great on this Epson paper. |

P.S. - Canon's modern version of the ip4500 is the ip4700, about $45 on Amazon - http://www.amazon.com/Canon-iP4700-Premium-Printer-3742B002/dp/B002M78HVS/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&s=office-products&qid=1259508047&sr=1-2 |

I'm going to bump this because I'm interested as well. I'm looking to buy a new printer to print photos I will take with my DSLR and also print all my lovely covers from here. I will also print B/W text but not on as often I expect. The scanner doesn't need to be great because I already own one (but if it is all the better). I was looking at the Epson Artisan 810 which seems to get good reviews. what do you guys think? |
