Inkjets for the Home

Many families seek moderate-quality photo printing, plus some text printing. For them, four-colour printers capable of 600-dpi resolution can produce very credible resultsââ,¬"more than enough for printing snapshots and images up to 12.7x17.8cm. And the cost of printing with four-colour inkjets is less than for six-colour ones. Expect to spend AU$350 to AU$450 for a four-colour, photo-quality inkjet. You may also find six-colour printers in this range. Some of the printers in this category include the HP DeskJet 932C, which features 600-dpi photo-quality output, automatic colour matching, moderate-cost consumables, and the ability to print envelopes and card stock. The Canon BJC-8200 offers 1,200x1,200-dpi resolution and the ability to print a 10.16x15.24cm photo in about a minute. The Lexmark Z52 Colour Jetprinter delivers 2,400x1,200-dpi and can print greeting cards and envelopes. The Epson Stylus Photo 870 offers 1,440x720-dpi, with long-life inks
