Question 1: What are they using it for? (Determine features necessary)
Question 2: How often will they use it? (Do they truly need a $500 convenience machine vs occasionally getting it done at Staples, London drugs, etc.?)
If I'm doing color printers, I'd lean towards Canon and Lexmark. I have a Canon machine at home that I inherited from a company that was getting rid of it because they got a color copier. I use it to print color maybe 3-4 times a year and it has never clogged. I believe it is around 5-6 years old. Pictures wise, it's good enough for a scrapbook etc. but in all honesty, $500 towards to print photos at a photo centre is a ton of photos at a higher quality.
