Epson leads the way in inkjet printers. I think they are the best and
most dependible I have ever used (although I have only used a few).
They are also the first to make a low cost DVD/CD printing printer, the
R200 ($99).
This will be awesome for not having to use etchant, not having to send
out PCBs, ... all around very good.
