The Pro 100 is definitely a better printer [a dedicated photo printer], and not as old a model as the TS9020 [an all-in-one printer]. Both will print on regular 8.5x11 paper, but the Pro 100 will also print on legal size paper as well as 13x9 paper. I just looked at printers on B&H's website, and the rebate is still available for the Pro 100. The final price is so good, you really should go for it. You pay $379.99 and get back $250.00 so final cost is $129.99. The TS9020 is smaller and a lightweight, and goes for $189.00. Do yourself a favor, find the space for it. If you cannot lift 43 pounds, get a friend to help. Oh, and standard shipping is free!

Sunlight fades everything, photos, couches, carpets, everything. Prints under glass hold up well as glass stops UV rays. I've had Epson printers and they were excellent. When comparing printers, for me, the cost of inks and the size they will produce is paramount for the following reason. When viewing a wall hung print done on different printers, if standing further than three feet away, most prints look good. There may be some differences in various colors, but differences in sharpness will usually not be noticeable. Again, I am discussing the same photo done on different printers. Usually wall hung prints are viewed from six feet away or more and not close up. I agree that when viewing a photo right after it comes out of the printer, you may notice any deficiencies if any, but hang it on a wall and stand six feet or more away and in my opinion, they disappear. Large photos are generally wall hung. 8" x 10" and smaller placed in albums generally in my experience, take a long time to fade. I have some old Kodak prints from my family which are about 50 years old and they have faded. My prints between 10 and 15 years old, in albums, are as good as when first printed. Some with printers original inks, some with a different manufacturers. I am sure you are and will continue to be thrilled with your printer. Just as I am with mine and another parties inks. To each.......

I have a Canon 9000 MKII for photos and just bought an HP 4650 for general document printing/scanning/faxing. The Canon is excellent although it has 8 crartidges which are not cheap. If I were buying now, I'd buy the Canon Pro 100 at the great price of $129 after rebate - how can you beat that, and they often throw in a 50 sheet box of 13X19 paper as well. And although a complete cartridge replacement costs almost as much as the printer, they often throw in a huge assortment of Canon paper at no charge with the cartridge order. What I like best though is being able to turn it off for months, and turn it on and print with zero print head clogging.

Regarding the HP, I've owned HPs since the original Laserjet III, but I've recently become disillusioned due to their policy on proprietary cartridges along with high cost and limited number of copies. So why would I buy another? Because of their ink on demand promo. They monitor the number of prints you make and automatically ship replacement cartridges - no going to the Office Depot when you run out during a print job. Plus, it's $2.95/month for an average of 50 copies - I like that. The setup was ultra smooth. Had the direct connection and wifi from all devices, both PC and Mac working within 5 minutes - just seamless - everyone in my house can print from anything and the cost was about ~$100. Very satisfied (surprisingly). It's a model 4650.

They are both reliable, and I have dealt with both. Prefer B&H, though, because their website is very user-friendly, they have a very good and wide selection of merchandise, and a lot of free shipping. A lot of times they have very good bargains, and may include extras when buying a camera and some other things. [This is their way of giving an additional savings above what the camera companies allow.] And visiting their store is an amazing experience!

Whenever I am considering a purchase, their website is one place I go for researching specifications and other aspects. A lot of sections also have "compare" buttons which will bring the items up side-by-side.
