Hi all
sorry if this isn't the right place on the boards but if anyone could point me in the right direction, it would be a big help.

I need a new printer/ scanner / copier as mine is playing up and I'd like to buy one that is good enough to print decent quality photos at home instead of having to take them to a retailer/ photo shop.

Can anyone recommend a good quality all in one printer that isn't too expensive? Hoping to spend max £100 but also would like the running costs to be kept reasonable. I could spend more at a push if the quality of the output was worth the extra expense.

Hope you can help.
Thanks
missk

    Why not just spend your cash getting them printed from one of the online photo printers.

    Photobox.com or Tesco have just started a new one.

    They do prints for as little as 5p. There is no way it will cost you as little as that when you have to buy all the inks and paper, etc. never mind the initial cost of the printer.
    I'd rather be playing Squash! :tongue:

    I have to agree with superjaggybunnet that while there is a convenience to printing pics at home the actual price isn't much cheaper (if at all) to uploading to an online printers.

    Thanks for the advice. It wasn't clear from my post but I do get most shots printed at a booth (kodak / photobox, etc) and I'm happy with that, but some things I need to print at home so I want one that is comparable quality (or close as poss) without being an extortionate outlay.

    Thanks
