Hi Roger,

Epson printers are excellent whilst they work, but be aware that if the jets
gets clogged and cannot be cleaned it will cost you a replacement printer!!
I have had 3 Epson printers now and all of them totally useless even after
having taken them to the service people. The advice was buy a new printer as
the repairs will cost you more! My last Epson was not even 3 years old and
still looks new. Besides I had a stock of very, very expensive inks which I
had to throw away. 

Do not know how the Canons or HP fare. But personally I have gone to laser
printers instead. 

Regards,

Philippe Chaperon
