icanscuba 0 Posted January 22, 2004 I have been using a Canon S450 bubble jet printer for a couple of years. I'd like to upgrade to a higher quality printer for digital images, without having to sell either of my kids. Any suggestions? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wetpixel 0 Posted January 22, 2004 I don't think you can go wrong with higher-end Canon or Epson printers. Many people I know have the Epson 2200 (which is what I have) and love it. I love mine. It is archival, and has "light black" and "black" ink cartridges, and the black one can take "matte black" ink for really dark blacks on matte paper. There probably isn't too much of a difference from normal viewing angles between the less expensive and more expensive printers. It's the ink that will get you in the wallet in the end, so the $3-400 difference up-front isn't as big of a deal as it seems. You should probably decide if you want wide-carriage or not, first. That will limit your choices. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
