Default Need suggestions on printer and paper

Hi, I'll be printing mostly B&W prints max would be around A4 size. What brand/model of printer do you guys suggest for occasional printing (let's say, one large print a week at the most)?

In addition, where can I get quality print papers such as metallic sheets, thicker textured paper etc...

Lastly, do you need special inks to print or the normal inks from the manufacturer works fine? Thanks!

Hi theveed,

I think the Epson Photo R800 is a good buy for your requirements.

If you are looking at quality, original inks are the best bet. Nothing beats original!
As for Print media, you can try Hahnemuehle or Sihl. They both offer good quality photo papers.

Do contact me if you need more advise on this.
Cheers.
