Selling this because I went to a giclee printer.

Epson Stylus Photo 1280. Prints on up to 13x19" paper or 13x44" roll paper for panoramics. you can also feed 4x6" into it as well. Prints look AWESOME. Epson printers have the smallest ink droplet size on the market, bar none. I've shown 4x6" off this to a friend who was a film lab technician (printer) for years and he says you'd be hard pressed to tell if it came from the printer or the store.

Works mint on high quality setting for photos (what it should be used at anyway) but has some faint lines in the print when used in the low quality mode. Maybe that's why they call it low quality, maybe its just something that needs to be cleaned or something, i can show you examples of both. doesn't seem to be an issue with text.

It comes with a free usb cable for hookup, and a roll attachment although i've never tried to use it.

It has ink in it and an extra color cartridge is available for $15.

Located in cumberland. Goes on craigslist next week.

yeah, epson is more or less the standard for photo printers. canon makes nice ones too, and some models are better at b&w than some of the epsons at b&w, but overall they're the best.

ps, ritz camera uses a much larger version epson with a similar ink set to print the poster size blowups that you'd buy at the store.

 
I'll second what Evan said about Epson being top notch. These printers are very capable of producing accurate prints. And yes, Ritz has the 24" & 36" versions for their large format printing. Very impressive prints.
