It's common knowledge this forum is about arrangers and any number of subjects about performing and playing. Plus, totally off-topic subjects. Join in!

Performing and playing, fair enough. But advice on what printer to buy... Come on. Calls for a moderator to move a few topics :-)

I'm thinking about a new bullbar for my 4x4. (Hey, it carries my KB when I drive to a gig, so it's on-topic, right?) Any advice?

Burkels, there are forums on the internet that are strictly on-topic. This isn't one of them.

Hi Brickboo, Semi & others:

We have had this discussion on this forum several times. For my two-bits worth, as long as we are talking onesy-twosey CD printing jobs that require full color, the Epson family (R-200, R-220, R-300 & R-320) are hard to beat. I sent Scott Yee and others samples. I never have a problem with smearing. My only complaint (and this one is universal, no matter what brand of inkjet)involves the extremely high cost of ink. It costs those folks less than a dollar per unit in labor and materials and they are ripping us to pieces costwise. No wonder they sell the printers so cheap. It nearly costs as much for the ink!

Sorry for the rant! Good luck. RICE

Burkels ... since your occupation is IT related, why not give some 'professional' advice and perhaps end the discussion ???

That's why I only buy Canon printers. They have individual ink cartridges and they are quite inexpensive.

In the opening post on this thread, I think the author meant "proprietary," not "prioritized."

Then again, I could be wrong. (It's been known to happen.)

The ink-jet printer industry relies on the "razor" concept. Sell the tool with a loss, make profit on the razors.

Hi Don
I also have graduated to a Canon i350 .I bought it because I saw that the cartridges were considerably cheaper than the others (like HP) but I have found that I have to buy more replacement cartridges for the Canon than I ever did for the HP
Not too late I hope to wish you and your family a Happy New Year 2006.
