Gary Posted January 9, 2006 Posted January 9, 2006 Hi Peter, I presume you are in the Uk so I do not know how cheap online photo services are over there. I tried to print my own Photos but found the results to be sub standard. My advice is to look online and have the photos printed by a professional service. I find this to be much cheaper in the long run, considering the price of ink cartridges and photo paper. The quality is superb, much better than you can achieve at home. Quote
Emperor Oli Posted January 9, 2006 Posted January 9, 2006 I wouldn't bother with a printer. The costs are exorbitant: the paper costs a fortune, and you go through ink like nobody's business. We have our digital photos developed at Boots, it costs something like 35p per print and I doubt that's the cheapest around. Just take your memory device in and they will develop them. Quote
