When I first started out with digital photography about 15 years ago I
used a Canon printer and it worked fine.

Most of my professional photographer friends told me I should have
gotten and Epson so when the Canon eventually died I got an Epson and
liked it...but soon needed a larger one.

Have been using an Epson R1800 now for possibly ten years and have not
had a single problem. Wife just bought a ton of new ink and we are now
getting the message that the parts inside are at the end of their life.
Apparently the ink pads.


It still works somewaht but we are going to get a new printer when the
ink is used up.

Epson does have a an ink pad reset utility to get rid of the message but
when I tried to run it, it will not run because " the parts inside are
not at the end of their life."


Anyway...now some of the pros I know are switching to Canon.

What's the best printer to get today. We do not need anything larger
than 13" x 19"

FWIIW I know of organization that was given a substantial grant from
Canon. They used the money to purchase Epson 2880 printers.
