I'm currently using a 7 year old Epson Stylus Photo to print 4"X6" mainly, with the occasional 8"X10". For the more serious images, I'm using a 2000P by Epson getting "Archival Quality" prints up to 13"X19". Just did a gallery show with 35 images done on the 2000P and the viewers were blow away by what could be done on a home printer.
