Morning Mo. I bought the Canon i860 in Fl... and loved it so much, that I just bought another for here.

$150.00 at Best Buy or wherever. It does one hell of a job with photos, and the ink is beyond belief. I printed over three packs of 20's full size, a whole box of 4x6's and I don't know how many reg sheets of print, and I brought four out of the original five cartridges home with me with ink still in them.

A full set of cartridges cost $60.00.. I have just put my first of my second set of cartridges in that Al bought me in FL. I've never seen a printer and ink cartridges like this. It's the best, most economical printer I've ever seen or used, and it's soo quiet you will never know it's running. I like the fact that you only replace the cartridge that runs out.... when they finally do.. ;) I just printed up 8 full 8x10's the other day, and expected to finally maybe replace a cartridge..lol.. Well.. not yet!

So, it's been over seven months of heavy printing, and I'm on my first turnover of ink cartridges. It's scary, really. I would recommend it to everyone. Use their best paper, and you will get spectacular prints.

As you can see, I should probably work for Canon. Love their cameras and now their printer astounds me.

SOLD! I just checked to reviews on that printer and they look great .. plus there is a rebate on it ..

Thanks for the advice Gran. There are so many printers out there I was getting dizzy trying to figure out which one I should get.

The printer I have know is great for scanning, copying, and printing regular documents .. but the quality on the photo's isn't great and I wanted to get a another printer for just photo's
