| 53457 | 2002-06-09 11:35:00 | I have a digital camera and wish to print the odd photo.Ihave an inkjet printer which prints OK but the cost of cartridges addup(refills too) and I am considering purchasing a laser printer. Am I on the right track here as I can use it for other jobs as well.It appears that inkjet prints will fade in light given time. I am prepared to pay more for the initial cost of the printer rather than the cost of the consumables. Any help appreciated. Thanks David |

Check the prices though, a simple postcard size print can vary from $2.00 (on special at K-mart this week) to $9.00 Remember that most colour chemistry produced prints from mini-labs and the like will fade in sunlight also. |
