New printer advice

[neillybob]

Looking for a new colour inkjet printer, USB interface at around £150

I've seen a cannon i865 that seems to fit the bill any good/bad experiences out there with this printer

Has the cannon got the facility to print directly on to printable cd/dvd media.
If it does how easy to get good results

Thanks in advance for any advice

From my own research Canons in the £150+ range are supposed to be better buys than the alternatives, I'd go for it, though I have no personal experience of that model.

i have a cheaper canon, it 0wns.

and most reviews i've seen say the high-end canons 0wn as well

i can only guess that this one 0wns too

(canons ae rediculously cheap to run too)

Just avoid Lexmark like the plague. Eugh!

the new epsons (r200 @ £99, r300 @£130 and r500 Ai1 @£200ish (all use seperate ink tanks) also the photo 900 and 960 printers) can print directly onto cd/dvd media i dont think any canons can yet tho

although canon's are cheaper to run the print quality aint quite as good with some of them , and im fairly sure you can get some sort of resetting kit for the epsons so you can refill them
