What is your favorite printer ?
Why?

What is your favorite software to print from?
Why?

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

What is your favorite printer ? Right now it is the Canon i9100.
Why? The printer easily is adjusted to take any size of paper very easily. I can even run 3 x 5 cards through the printer with ease!! The output is GORGEOUS! The ink refills are inexpensive.

What is your favorite software to print from? Still looking!! I print from Paint Shop Pro 8 (by JASC), Picasa, MS Word when I'm working on printables.
Why? I don't have a favorite because I can't seem to get a consistent result. I end up with borders around my 8.5 x 11 pages and my 12 x 12 pages. I think part of it is that I'm battling with the Canon printer software. The Canon printer software really doesn't like me to use borderless printing on 12 x 12.

What is your favorite printer ?
Epson 1280
Why?
Rich colour with up to 200 years of Archival-bility---is that a word? Can print 12x12 on 13x19 paper, to achieve full bleed.

What is your favorite software to print from?
1st: Photoshop and Illustrator; 2nd: The Print Shop
Why?
1st: Best quality overall, 2nd: ease of use

I love Epson printers, and that's what we'll be sticking with. Right now, we have the 1270, but as soon as we have some extra bucks, we're upgrading to the 2200.

As for software, all I can handle at this point is PS Elements.

Why? Because it prints on anything and the quality is wonderful! I also like the 8 different ink colors, making it cheaper to replace only the 3 I tend to run out of most.

Why? I'm not sure. I just recently got Photoshop CS2 and Illustrator CS2, so not much practice there. Before that I just used Microsoft Publisher or Microsoft Word to print whatever I needed.

My favourite printer (at the moment) is my HP Deskjet 1220C mainly because it's a wide format printer and so I can print 12x12 plus the quality.

I always print from Photoshop due to ease of use (been using it forever LOL)
