I had an Epson that was always clogged everytime I tried to use it. I 
finally got a black & white laser printer and put it on my network. Brother 
sells a newer model for $99. Add a USB network print server for $75 and 
you're there.

We're not printing color except for photos. For that, we go to walgreens, 
walmart, ofoto, etc which is much cheaper and better quality.

I do have a Canon printer that was free w/ a rebate. As you might guess, it 
gets used rarely, but it hasn't needed incessent cleaning like that old 
Epson needed.

When my son needs/wants color (he's 2 right now) I'll probably look at a 
color laser or solid ink (Xerox/Tektronix phaser). They're getting cheaper 
all the time and the quality is good enough for everything except photo 
stuff. They're probably cheaper to run then ink jets too.
