for printing colour photos I highly recommend getting a dye-sub printer. You get consistently great photos, and predictable running costs, since each picture uses the same amount of ribbon no matter what you print. For large prints or huge batches online printers cant be beaten for costs, but for postcard size my little sagem works out at about 30p a picture, and you have them right now. I used to have an epson stylus (ink) photo printer and as it got on a bit it would splatter the pictures with black spots, but then it was great to be able to print A4 to the edge of the page.
