I too was looking for a good printer for quilting - I went to Staples and found one - thanks to a very knowledgeable young man who knew exactly what I needed, and I love it -
It is an HP official Pro 8500 A910. It has individual inks - and the print you get out of the machine is better than the picture you put in to print with the scanner! It gives amazing detail and color - I would highly recommend one of these to anyone - and it has all the bells and whistles and if you watch the sales for Stapeles, they do have them on sale at times - and if you take your old printer in to trade it (what good is it anymore) you can get $50 off your new one - and watch for coupons too. They also take old ink cartridges - up to 10 at a time. So, it's a way to recycle - and you get a great deal all at once; not to mention if you have problems with anything you purchase from them they have a great backup tech service. Mine costed me $199. and I had no trade-in - coupon - just the sale it was at at the time. But, once I knew all this other stuff, I could have gotten more off the final price. So, go prepared to "make a deal".
You can also sign up online for their weekly ad where they send you specials now and then also - I enjoy their sales.
