Printing photos was one of my weekly activities as soon as the Walgreens coupon came out! I would print 50, 75, or 100, depending on the coupon requirements! Not anymore, a few months ago I bought an HP printer and an ink plan! I love it! I print the pictures that I need and I never run out of ink! The paper is not cheap but it is still less expensive!
I print my own on my Canon Pixma ip8720. Love this printer and when I buy my ink directly through canon...price is the same as amazon or staples...they also send me FREE photo paper. I have two big drawers full of everything from 4 x 6 to 8.5 x 11 and both matte and glossy...LOVE it!
I print them as I scrap them.
