I fully agree with astro744 about printing photos - take them to a proper print place and have it down properly. Lasers are only 'OK' for photo-realistic printing.
Avoid inkjets like the plague - cheap to buy initially, hyper-expensive replacement ink, and they never work when you need them to.
One more think - HP and Epson have rolled out "printing as a service" where you pay a set amount per month to print a set number of pages. The advantage is they (as I understand it) will send out new cartridges as you need them. However, if you don't pay your subscription you can be locked out of your printer.

The Epson EcoTank Inkjet Printers are not cheap to buy. The only reason I chose this model was the refillable ink tanks. I think my next buy will be a Brother Laser Printer.
