Re: Looking for a good photo printer

My Epson Stylus Photo R260 has clogged once in the last year when I 
printed a DVD cover that was all black. Epson's cleaning routine 
unclogged the head after two tries. There is a trick using Windex on the 
little sponge inside the printer that I used on my old Epson photo 
stylus but I've not had to do that with the new printer.

I don't print a lot of photographs but when I print them I use the 
maximum quality setting.
