I've got a Epson c80 and a HP 7760.
IMHO, the epson was a great photo printer, after years of abuse and tens of thousands of pages it still does a great job with text and light graphics. (have to align it often)
The HP 7760 does better on photos than my local photo-lab. There are many different kinds of printer carts, and the heads are in the carts. You'd be suprised how long the ink lasts in the 7760! I've printed super-saturated 8x10's, darn near 35 of them and I'm not even half way through the carts!!!!
On top of that, the 7760 auto-aligns and calibrates itself at the beginning of the print. You almost-never have to calibrate it manually! AND.. it had an LCD screen, for PC-less prints.
