You guys have any idea? Can it even be done?

I want to be able to print photo quality 8 by 10s.

As that link I posted shows, check ink cartridge prices too.

What might be cheap for a printer might cost a lot in consumables, making the price-per-sheet higher.

Epson R200 can be picked up for under $100 at CompUsa. It's the same thing as the R300 minus the card slot and display screen. I use it for printing on CDs for clients. For my prints I use a Canon i9900 or a lab depending on type of print, size, etc.
