Hi

I think that Canon has just brought out a printer that uses separate cartridges
instead of the usual 2.

Personally I reccommend either Epson or Canon they are both exeptionaly good
printers. Why aren't you keen to get the new 6colour printers, their only
disadvantage is that they arean't as good on text as the 4colour tho this may
just be an epson fault, as now the text looks like its from an ink-jet instead
of a laser, but thats something you can probably manage without :-)

For quality HP and Lexmark suck, unless you buy the absolute TOP of the range
even then its only so-so
