Don,

The Epson PhotoStylus is a 6 color printing process that is outstanding. The droplet sizes are in the range of 6 picoliters with newer models as low as 4 picoliters. With a high resolution photo (I use a 2.1 megapixel camera) there is no pixelation at 4" x 6" and minimal pixelation at larger sizes of prints.

There is a successor to the Epson PhotoStylus 750 which is a higher resolution printer with the same output sizes. I believe it is the 870. The PhotoStylus 1200 and its successor is pricey and prints on larger paper. As far as I am concerned I draw the limit at 5" x 7" and 98% of all I print is 4" x 6".

Expect to pay about $200-$275 for the PhotoStylus 750 and 870 printers and about 40 per photo based on consumables. Look for promotions as well.

Art - Regarding Adobe Photoshop: If you live in a city with a community college, you might find they have classes in Adobe Photoshop. I've taken one at a community college, and it was FREE -- well worth the time spent to learn this complex program.
