What is the BEST Printer out there for home use?

I have an Epson Artisan 730. After each print job, no matter how big or small, and no matter if I'm printing text or photos; I am having to do a head cleaning because the next print job comes out with lines or the colors are not correct.

What printer do you think is best for home use?

    You should check online to see how various printers are rated, how much different ones cost, and consider that you want to do with it. I will give you a link to a site I just looked at and you can get an idea of what a neutral source considers the best for different jobs and what you can expect the prices to run. You should consider also what the ink might cost because in some cases you can buy a printer with ink and then buy a new printer with a basic amount of ink for less than replacing the ink cartridge would cost.

    I think you could probably choose a printer from almost any brand and be fine, though I think an HP or Epson would be your best choice. The link below has several printers at various price points with their features summarized as well as prices.

    Truthfully, I'd recommend you going to an office/electronics store with some ideas in your head about what you need. The second link below outlines some things to keep in mind.

    I have a Canon Pixma MG5420. Not sure what is best, but i like mine.

    it's a printer, copier, and scanner. You can print from a memory card and its wireless. Can print from computer, laptops, and iphone. I scan all my school stuff and important documents. The ink is expensive but I bought bottles of ink from amazon.

    I would personally own 2 printers. A Brother laser printer for just pure black/white printing. And a Canon Pixma printer for occasional color.

    Kodak printers because they have good output and the ink is the cheapest around.

    Go to amazon.com, best buy, staples, office depot/max and search for printers. Sort by best ratings and you'll probably find something good.
