It yields thousands of prints, and replacement ink is cheap, so you don't have to worry about high maintenance costs. What makes this printer great is its refillable ink tank. It has the usual Wi-Fi, USB, and Ethernet connectivity and can print directly from an SD card. As this is an all-in-one, you also get a scanner that produces high-quality scans, which is great for digitizing photos. The pictures still look amazing, just don't expect them to be exactly like the original. Like the Canon imagePROGRAF PRO-300, it produces detailed and colorful photos, but it isn't as color-accurate as it tends to oversaturate colors to make them more vibrant. If you don't need a professional-grade printer but still want high-quality photos, get the Epson EcoTank Photo ET-8550 instead.

If you haven't already noticed, this is a print-only model, so you'll need a separate scanner to digitize photos. That said, the cartridges are only good for about 400 color prints, and they're expensive, so you'll have to spend a fair amount of money on maintenance. This printer uses nine cartridges, including specific photo cartridges that work only on glossy photo paper, meaning you won't have to worry about depleting the photo ink if you shift to printing documents or reports. Connectivity options include Wi-Fi, USB, and Ethernet, and there's support for Apple AirPrint and Mopria Print Service, so you can easily print from your Apple and Android devices without installing any drivers or a third-party app. It supports borderless printing and various paper sizes up to 13' x 19', making it a great choice for printing posters. It produces incredibly detailed, vibrant, color-accurate pictures without banding or other artifacts. The best photo printer we've tested is the Canon imagePROGRAF PRO-300, a professional-grade photo printer.
