Which printer for CDs

[rich]

I'm after a new ink jet printer @£50-60 for general use and to print onto Cd's.

I know there are a couple of Epsons and Canons that will do Cd's
are there any others, and which is the best one to go for, IYO of course.

I did get a Canon IP4200 but its going back because the paper constantly jammed on loading, is this common, or are Canons still worth a look [possibly the IP4300].

Ta in advance :thumb:

How do you get the CD to roll round the roller, like paper does?

I've got an Epson R300 photo printer (now discontinued) - it comes with a plastic CD holder fixture to print directly on to the discs.

The Epson R265 does the same. rrp £90

I don`t know an answer to your question, sorry
I thought if I keep replying, it would keep the thread to the top of the page, meaning a better chance that someone sensible would see it and reply
Just trying to be helpful :thumb:

Floppies don`t work either, I just tried
If you find out which printer is a good one, let me know - mine`s broke now

the old ones are always the best.

I have been thinking of changing, I have a Cannon i550 which has given me good service for the last 3 yrs, also very economical on ink, I have been considering the Epson R220 or a little bit more expensive the Cannon ip 5200. :thumb:

That's roughly the two i've been looking at Mike,
from what i have heard the ip4300 is basically a re-badged ip5200 but the price has come down slightly.

Hello Rich

IMHO (for what it's worth) get the Epson. I've had one for years and it's never given me any problems at all.
