Thanks Daniel. You have confirmed my own preference for Epson.
There are so many different configurations of Epson printers in the
less than $400 range, including some combo versions, that I thought
it would be interesting to hear about the experience of users of
these models.

My Epson Stylus C61 has given 7 years of good service but has reached
a point where it needs maintenance beyond my capabilities. Cleaning
of the heads and the rollers gets rid of vertical streaks for about
half a page of printing.
A discussion of colour laser printers occurred on the List in about
January 2008 but further exploration of that choice tells me that
quality photos can not be produced for a machine under $1000 where as
inkjets can.
An Epson inkjet would be my first choice and a likely product
appeared to be the Epson Stylus Photo R290 (about $170), but reviews
identified feed problems. Anyone had good performances from other
Epson photo quality printers, or an alternative Brand?

Hi Merv
I've supplied Epson printers for my clients (and use Epson myself) and I've
always been very happy with them. I find their colour output is great, and
they generally always work with no problems, and last fairly well. (On
average).
I've a few clients with the R290 and they've never had any problems with
them, otherwise I'm sure I would have heard about it.
The new Epson range is very well priced.
Personally, I don't think you can go wrong with Epson. But that's my own
opinion. :o)
Hope that helps.
Kind Regards
Daniel
