Anyone have an opinion on the best $99 printer to get for free after rebate w/ MBP?
 
Having been through many printer brands in the past, I decided to get an Epson again for my free printer. The main reason is that the Epson ink is the only ink I've used that is instantly dry and streak-free. I print labels a lot, and so I peel and then rub my fingers all over the surface as I'm pressing on the label. Every other brand ink had at least a little bit streaking. Lexmark was the worst. Epson had no streaking whatsoever.
 
You might want to check ink prices also--that can be the real killer in any printer. I remember Epson ink being less expensive, though that was a while ago.
