prints for $43.00 :)
For the rest of my printing needs, I use a lexmark laser printer.
I used to fiddle around with my Canon trying to get a good print of
photos and then painstakingly cutting each photo out. Then I saw that
Costco develops them for .19 cents a piece and the Costco photo blows
the doors off of any injet printer. I'm not sure about the dye
sublimation printers, but I do think it's cheaper to go to costco in the
end. I've also heard that Sam's does the same.
