The new printer I got for Christmas does printing, copying, scanning and
faxing. I should be in good
shape. All we ever do is black and white. If we need a photo or color,
we send it to Costco. There
it's done in an hour or so. Haven't tried the WalMart service yet, but
will give it a shot as it's
much closer, and I can pick up some ammo if I need it !!

I do mine at CVS but there are lots of places that will sell you Kodak
prints for 29 cents or less a shot. I use the cheaper "one hour"
service but I drop them off on the way to the grocery store (in the
same parking lot) and they are always done by the time I get my
groceries.

It was not even worth keeping a color printer fed and buying photo
paper for that price. I gave mine away when the ink ran out.

I send the pictures to costco on line and we pick up whenever we get there.
I think the only color printing I do now is for pictures on the back of
the Christmas letter. Normally have to buy new ink cartridge after a year.
Everything else I print in grey tones. Lad lots of that is fast draft
mode.

My wife still likes photo albums so I end up getting prints. CVS is
easy and a quarter a print isn't bad. Certainly not worth driving very
far to save another nickel. I am at the store a few times a week
anyway. There is a Walgreens in the same parking lot if I get mad at
them.

We are not that far from a Costco. Wife normally fills her gas tank there.
Is cheapest gas around here. I think it is now $0.09 a print. We
actually do not print that many hard copies anymore. Rarely look at the
old albums.
