New Printer Advice Please

[greenlandy]

I've been asked to supply a printer for a friend who's thinking about getting a digital camera. The printer he has at the moment is stuffed and he has about £100 to spend.
Anyone seen any good deals or got an idea what I should get him?

Cheers Matt

If it's for printing photos as well as general work, the Epson R200 and R300 are hard to beat, IMHO.

Thanks for that I've had a nose around and the 300 fits the bill perfectly

Seconded. I have the R200 (£70 on special offer a few months ago at Currys).

Great Photo's and also V good at printing straight onto your CD/DVDs. Cartridges also very....very cheap.

Supposed to make your ink last longer and stuff. Not used it myself yet though.
