Advice on a new Photo printer required

IanHoughton · 19-10-2006, 16:02

The print head on my Epson R200 is completely blocked, i've tried multiple cleaning cycles, i've removed the print head and let the nozzles soak in some warm water in an attempt to un-clog the head to no avail.

I'm now looking to replace the printer and i'm leaning towards the Epson R220 due to cost £65 and the fact it uses the same cartridges. While i'm looking, is there another printer say from HP or Canon for roughly the same price that is as good as the Epson(must be able to print onto DVD's). The downside to the Epson is if you dont use it every week the head can clog up.

Bought a Canon ip6600D if anyone is interested

Did you try Cleaning cartridges, I use Lyson ones for when I have a problem.

No, it was a couple of years old, so I just bit the bullet and bought a new one. Will post up a review when i've tried it out completely.

You'll be better off with the Canon
