8/9 Which (if any?) affordable photo printer can rival lab prints?
\_ At CompScrewSA, I have seen ribbon based die sublimation
printers. The results looked pretty good, not perfect, mind
you, but a heck of a lot better than inkjets. -nweaver
\_ Epson's 870/1270 6 color inkjets beat them, along with the
online printers like ofoto. The catch - there either is or
is not an issue with color fade on certain papers. I'd wait
till it is resolved, or buy from a place with a 30 day
return policy. The 870's msrp is 299. -jor
\_ url or price range? Last time I checked they were $2000.
\_ No URL, I seem to recall they were in the sub $500 range,
HORRIBLY slow printing, heavy media cost, but the hardware
itself was rather cheap. -nweaver
\_ Last time I checked was six years ago...
\_ Hey foo'. There's a July review on zdnet of a $800
printer with exceptional image quality. You'll find it. |
