The old thread was too old and I couldn't add posts, so here's a new thread with the same topic.
We couldn't be happier with the color printer below, Ecotank, by Epson. Epson's ink cartridges have always been cheaper than HP's, but still, they go very, very fast, and the ink cost can add up. The Ecotank printers are made for color printing of flyers, photos, etc, and the ink tank is supposed to last 5000+ of color printing, equivalent to 20 ink cartridges. We just printed a bunch of photos for our photo frames, and barely made a dent on the ink usage. Just so you know, this printer is not for printing multiple pages of documents (it prints backward unless you make changes to the registry), and it cannot scan multiple pages of documents. But if you are looking for a color printer for other uses, it is so much cheaper than any other printers. I no longer restrict myself to black&white printing.

MOD EDIT: Here is the link to the old thread http://www.early-retirement.org/forums/f27/what-you-consider-superior-products-48612.html#post901958. Thanks for starting a new one.
