Printers....
What printer uses the most affordable ink yet still produces a nice print?

I print photos and text

Anecdote below
So I bought an Epson printer and I must say it works great and only cost $60-70. I don't print that often so it sat for couple months, printed a little more, sat again.

Well when I go to use it it says my ink is empty, but if you look at the carteridge it still has ink in it. WTF? Well I did a small amount of research and found that in some cases there is a time limit on the carteridges. Something to do with a chip in the cart. Seemed kinda iffy to me. Too bad as it really was a nice printer and the carteridges cost about the same as the printer.
