Hi Glenn,

I have gone the same road as Lloyd, using a small Brother HL1430, the older
model similar to the new 2040, and get my photos printed at the many camera
shops around.
I have had 4 Epson inkjets which besides having cost a fortune in the
genuine ink cartridges, have all stopped working. The latest one being a
CX5300 which after only 3 cartridge runs stopped printing, and the repairer
bluntly told me to buy a new printer instead!!

I've heard that the Samsung CLP-300 is good, but having no experience of it
cannot say for definite. But I guess the colour lasers in that price range
would not be very good for photos, but excellent for general colour text
printing.

Good luck with our purchase.

Regarding cheap Inkjets, the many Kyocera units at work seem to be better than I would have earlier thought. I normally go for Canon, of which we have a dust encrusted i250 here at home which has never failed in over two years of very sporadic duties, no drying after long periods and no jams, it still impresses me with it's output quality. I think we paid $90 at the Post Office possibly 3 years back.


Good Luck
Paul
