Most of the current inkjet printers give identical results. The type that use the six cartridges probably produce the best colour.
Using the correct paper is the secret to photo like results.
I have used a number of different ink jet printers and find them extremely expensive to run. My costs worked out at between 2 and 3 dollars an A4 page. The published figures always show better results than this of course but if you only make two or three prints per month like I required the amount of head cleaning that occurs uses 80% of your ink and the cartridges only last about a year with intermittent use any way. If you are printing 50 or 60 photos at a time the cost per print will come right down of course.
It is much cheaper to get your photos printed at the local photo shop.
For my colour photos I use my colour laser that works out at about 12 cents per print. The quality of the laser is not as good as an inkjet but is good enough for most purposes. I use the laser to print repro meccano manuals for friends and some of these are 200 pages plus in colour! I could not do this with an ink jet.
