This a great printer. My wife and I have a small Photo Studio. This is a great option to having our digital prints made outside of the office. We can now print in office with the quality that last over 100 years. Printing is slow when used for photo development. A 8x10 takes about 2mins to print. Printer ink is a value. You only replace the colors which are out. Each color is about $10 You can print strait from you camera or media cards. This is great for on the road snap shots. With a quality Photo software suit, you can make perfect quality photos in your own office.
