Hi,
I am looking to buy a home printer mainly for printing family photos and artwork.
I only need up to A4.
My budget is up to 180 gbp.
I have narrowed my search to these models but I open to other printers as well as long as they fit my budget.
These models are for UK: Canon TS5050, Canon G3510, Epson Ecotank 2710.
I couldn't find any information for the droplet size of the canon models, but the DPI suggests that the Epson has smaller droplet size.
