At Home POLL: Best Printer Brand?

What is your opinion on the best printer brand (inkjet printers especially). Which one do you use?

*What I use/think*
I currently use a HP Deskjet 5550 and im pretty satisfied, although the ink cartidges are expensive, it gives me excellent photo quality images. I used to like Epson, but they seemed to last a short period of time. Lexmark I consider excellent, and the quality is good, but the ink cartidges are just too expensive. I havent actually tried Canon a lot, some of my friends swear by it. After hearing the catastrophy of the fake ink cartidges (especially epson) I decided to be aware of what I buy and where. As for laserjets, well I can say that my budget doesnt like them, although myself I consider them excellent. *No flamewars Please* just share your opinions/comments/experiences etc. Thanks for reading

I use a HP psc 750xi (printer/scanner/copier). Was fairly cheap (130 on sale at sam's club) and I think it has good quality images, especially for the money. The ink is fairly expensive at 35 color/20 black but the cartridges seem to last awhile.

I've also owned 2 epsons in the past and were pretty happy with those as well.

Can't vouch for Lexmark but I know people who have had em and liked em

I went through two Canon multifunction printers that didn't work out for me. They just seemed to die on me. I switched to HP and haven't looked back. The Canon's worked great, when they worked.

I now have an HP Deskjet 5550 and an HP 6110

The high-end HPs are untouchable.
The low-end HPs blow chunks.

We have many of both varieties at my work. The cheapies are constantly giving me problems, the expensive ones are nearly bullet proof.

So, for hi-end, I like the HPs.
For the low-end, our Brother set-ups do pretty well.

edit:
This is my experience with LASER printer.
I have never had much luck with inkjets. IMO, inkjets generally suck, but if I had to get one, it would be an Epson...
