Re: Printer

One thing to note though, the printers that have expensive cartridges are because they include ths print head on the cartridge so you effectively get a 'new' printer each time you replace them. The cheaper ones have integrated heads so teh quality will degrade over time, then its new printer time.

You pays your money and takes your chioce.


As for MH, a lot of places will print letters etc for you, you really don't need a printer for teh odd one, if you do a lot then fair enough, as its once is a blue do-dah for me its not worth it.

Prices in GDs vary on what size prints you want, IIRC, 6x4s for over 100 piccys is about 7p each (Yes you can get them slightly cheaper elsewhere, this normally takes a day or two ) TBH I prefer to support my local independant camera shop who is able to advise me when I need help with something. so much so I'm waiting for my new camera, Canon EOS 400D, from GDs as opposed to going and getting one from an internet supplier, price is within £20 and I know he'll spend time with me if I need to know how to do something or if I'm making a mistake he'll explain what I'm doing wrong.
