I have a limited budget and was looking at purchasing an inkjet printer that produces up to 13x19 prints. It is mainly for half size check prints of CD's and other drawing files associated with a project. I might occasionally print a photo but that isn't its main purpose.
I have looked and researched a few options but have greatly varying reviews on all the printers this size within my budget. I am not expecting a high end printer so I can sacrifice a little quality. Mu budget is under $300.00 USD.
The printers I have found with the most reviews and info are:
HP OfficeJet 7000
HP OfficeJet K8600
HP PhotoSmart B8550
Epson Stylus 1400
Does anyone use any of these printers? if so, how would you rate it?
Do you have any other suggestions with in my budget? how would you rate it?
Any issues with any of these printers?
Does the ink cost and arm and a leg? Does the color dry up if not used?...
Basically any input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
