Anyone got any advise on which are the best photo printers.

I`ve had 2 Epson photo printers, 870 and 890. Both produced stunning results but their nozzle cleaning cycles used more ink than I did actually printing. I just use Bonusprint now at 15p per print for real photos (6x4). 8x10 is only £1 if I remember rightly. You can send a cd with your jpegs freepost.

Spot on Ken,
I`ve got the Photo 890 and do a lot of photo printing mostly using epson originals (paper/cartridges). Its getting to the stage where the nozzle requires a lot of cleaning and uses more ink. I also used a gadget that resets the cartridge chips to give me another 20% more ink (as per a Which report), which made them go a bit further. Also worth considering cartirdge prices when looking at printers and Epson aren`t cheap.

I haven`t used Bonus print yet but heard from friends that its well worth it.
