I found the Canon Pixma MP760 multifunction printer to be cheaper than the MP500, so shop around folks. It comes with full sets of ink. It looks awesome, prints negatives, doesn't choke over long hours of printing, has a myriad of options, and lots of different types of paper are accepted. High Res actually looked like High Res. The printer also has a big enough adjustable screen.

Unfortunately, using the lowest possible power consumption options, it takes a long time before it starts printing on a cold start. That's to be expected, though.

What's with the black/translucent plastic piece for the bottom paper feeder? I had to take it out because I couldn't figure out where it fit back in. The lights for printing negatives are blinding. Use sunglasses! With the multiple settings windows, you have to poke around to find what you want to set.

Overall, it is the best printer I've ever owned. It copies, scans and prints flawlessly beautiful photos, and the negatives look brilliant too.

The hatch door opening mechanism I admit is a bit much, but damn it all if it wasn't the coolest thing I've seen on a printer. The printer is sitting many feet away from the computer it's hooked to, but it's still running fine.

I was lucky enough to get 2 of them for less than $300 in total, and I find compatible cartridges for under $1/cartridge. Yay internet.

The maintenance cost of the printer is very low, and the power consumption is almost nothing when idle. All across the board this is the best printer I've ever had!!
