I am sure that lots of you have your own photo printer at home and I didn't go into the "printer" threads because there is nothing going on there.

I just started doing some research on what "dedicated photo printer" i should buy, i already have an all-in-one but it doesn't print "top notch" photos so i don't need another all-in-one, i just want a really high quality PHOTO printer. I am looking at the Canon Pro9000 Mark II that some one is offering me for $130 dollars. I would like to do black & white prints but i hear this printer is not good for B&W. I am only interested in printing 4X6, 8X10 and the 13X19 sounds interesting too.

I used to have a really good Canon i960 which was really good for color printer, i never printed a B&W with it though.

Any input from you guys? This could be as complicated as buying a new camera for i am sure there are different opinions and specs, but that is what i would like to hear from you.

Thanks!

I have the Canon Pixma 9000 Mark II and I paid about $130 brand new for it.

I can honestly say this printer is awesome and it prints great photos. I print mainly black and white and it never lets me down. The reason you heard it's not good for B&W is because it doesn't multiple grey/black inks. But you can still get really good monochrome prints out of this printer and the fact that it is dye based means you can get really good color too.

The fact that you can get it for such a low price is what really sold me on this printer. If you compare it to anything else for $130 - $200, this is easily your best printer.
