Quality color printer needed

[mikey69]

After having a nightmare with Epson stylus C82, I started to use B/W laser printer. But my office need color printer too, so I would appreciate a recommendation on a quality color printer. We print about 5-10 color pages a day.

i recomend the epson R800,is an awesome printer,they are about NZ$700 (trade price) here so should be about US$400 or less.BUT they are very heavy on ink

what size prints are you doing because if you are doing anything up to 8.5"X 14" you might consider using dye sublimation printers which have way better than any inkjet printer you will ever come across and the print costs are not all that high if you consider what people are charging customers.

Do you know its cost-per-page-printing? I heard its supplies are very expensive.

My last Epson CS-82 costs me about $1.00-$1.20 to print a page like the front page of my web site (http://www.unionbrothers.net). Plus, it becomes out of order after about 300-400 prints!!!!!.

Thanks.

I am very happy with my R800. I got it Refurb'ed from the Epson site for $200 or $250 - I have forgotten the exact price. The output is great. I use Epson ink and Epson Premium Glossy Photo Paper.
