Sort of wedding related: Printers

FH and I are in the market for a new printer. we need it to print out some wedding related stuff like placecards. But we also want one that prints out photo quality pictures.

does anyone have any recommendations?

TIA!

Re: Sort of wedding related: Printers

i have a hp 2210v photo copier, fax and printer. I did all of my projects with it. I had it for 2 years they might have an new version.

Re: Sort of wedding related: Printers

i have the cannon i560.... its a photo printer as well. We printed EVERYthing wedding related (we made our own invites, bookmarks, programs, adresses invites, E-party invites)... you name it, we printed it. Honestly, this printer is still going strong, and we've put it through hell with all that we've done So i'd highly recommend it. Also, our Ink lasts forever on this thing! we did more than half of that stuff (minimum) before we even had to get another cartridge

Re: Sort of wedding related: Printers

I have had MAJOR issues with both HP printers that I have so I refuse to buy them anymore.

UGH I cant even tell you the hell I went through with the printer/scanner/copier I have.

Amazing quality photos on this printer...

hp photosmart 7960

We've had it for over a year and a half and cannot tell you how beauiful photos come out printed from this...

epson 1280 is a good printer.. we have that one at school... i have at home an hp and have always been happy with it!!

another tip... look at the price of the replacement cartrigdes if you are cought between two different printers...

Re: Sort of wedding related: Printers

We bought a new printer for the wedding - to print out programs and menus, invitations for the rehearsal dinner, etc. We still have it and love it and it works as good as it did they day we got it.

great advice! the Espon is what I initially wanted, until I found out that it needs 6 ink cartridges at a time! Epson had the nicest color quality out of all the one's I have seen so far. but 6 cartridges? ick!

That's the printer that I have been using as well.

There are only 4 ink cartridges (black, magenta, yellow, and cyan). To replace them, it is usually less than $15 each. And you can replace them separately.

In my experience, Epson printers seem to go through a LOT of ink. I had one at work, and since I do a lot of printing I found I was replacing the cartridge every 3 weeks or so. I finally switched to an HP, and now I replace the cartridge every 3 months.

Re: Sort of wedding related: Printers

actually... that might save you $$ in the long run... because it only runs out of one color at a time... when sometimes the printers that have just a color cartridge (which has 3 colors inside it) might just run out of blue for example... well you have to throw out the entire cartridge and waste a lot of ink... does that make sense??


we also have the epson 2200 at school (that is the one with the 6 cartridges)... not so fond of that printer... it worked a couple times to print beautiful photos on photo paper, but now it has been streaking and making lines, so i would stay away from the 2200...
