I was a Christmas present, the HP 8750 Professional photo printer.....bow down to me slaves or my colorful 13x19" prints will slay thee.

Other than the fact that the 13x19 paper is $60 for 25 sheets this thing is great and I highly recomend you all go and spend the $500 to get one, that is if you like taking pictures and printing 13x19 prints

Oh, and did I mention it's friggin huge

Cripes.  How much for ink, or toner, or whatever is uses?

It's not that bad, I haven't checked the prices yet. Oh yeah, it uses 9 different inks

I'm making some huge prints right now of some outdoor/nature scenes. It takes about 3-4minutes to print a 13x19 sized print, a little to long for some.

All of my pics are taken with my digital rebel so I really get to take full advantage of the 6.3mpxs.

$60 isn't that bad for paper.  Is it an inkjet, or a dye-sub?  I just started looking for a photo printer, and right now I'm looking hard at Canon.  This is near blasphemy, as all of my gear is Nikon :)  How do you like it, and more specifically, what do you like most about it, and dislike about it?

I predict a fundraiser for LArifleMAN/HP.

The only thing I have a problem with is that the paper has to be loaded in upside-down...did not know this the first 2 big prints I made, and I was almost ready to send the whole thing back.

Then I realized I'm and idiot and now I don't have any specific complaints about it, it does a great job.
