hi, thanks for your comments. re printers, as you say there are too many. if you mean for printing fotos, i use a HP which is very good, but only has 4 colour ink. the epson and canon now have 7 colours but im not sure how good they are for fotos ( i was told in one shop that HP is better but it depends where yuo go) if you are in tokyo try going to one of the big shops in akihabara and asking someone there. thats the best i can suggest, sorry
