We need a printer at home, nothing special, must be wireless and reasonably capable of producing quality photo prints. Would like to spend around £100. It must be efficient!

We looked at an Kodak ESP 5250 today, very reasonable with the cartridges.

Any help and suggestions will be greatly appreciated, Antonia might even post tits as a sign of gratitude

Reliable brand, with ink cartridges that aren't stupid expensive

Yes, tits are good.

Look for a printer that can print out pictures of tits in full high resolution photo glossy glory.

I personally like the Kodak's.  my mom and sister both have kodak printers and the ink price was the big seller for them, about $25 for both cartridges when most are that much for one.  The picture quality seem good to me, not professional but very good for a home printer.  The last part I like is I have had to deal with their support a couple times (love being the family tech support) and had very great experiences, very helpful and willing to make things right.

Also make sure that ALL of the colors are separate cartridges. One of the most annoying things is having only two cartridges in a printer: color and black. This cuts down on the amount of ink you have to buy if you print, say, lots of red things.

it would be hard to find a printer for under 100 pounds that uses independent color drums.

I tried that on my last two printers and it really didn't help.  One wouldn't print at all if a color ran out (and ink wasn't cheap don't recall exactly how much) and the other cost $15 per cartridge for each color so about $60 for all 4.  I'll take the hit of throwing away some ink when it can all be had for $25.

Really? Pretty easy to find them for around €100-120 here in Austria... Maybe I've just always been lucky, though.
