Candace,
You may want to consider one of the Canon's. Most of the models sold here in
the US can be hacked to print on CD's with the removal of a cover plate, the
purchase of the correct CD carrier and a software switch in the printer. The
feature is disabled due to "marketing agreement" with Epson. The hack even
works on the pro9000 and pro9500. I have one of the mid level ones (the
iP4500 I think); it came with free with a G9 and at retail was maybe $90. It
uses one half (RGBK) of the ink set that the pro9000 uses plus an extra
black. I haven't used it for much photo printing but what it has done has
been good. My main use has been cranking out CD's of the recital recordings
I occasionally do.
HTH, Dan.

This is totally off topic, but there is so much knowledge here that I
am hoping someone can help me with a not so fun problem I am having.
I need a new home printer, I will give some background in a moment.
The printer needs to print "decent" photos for proof sheets and home
snapshots. All professional printing I have done at a lab.
The printer needs to print on CDs/DVDs.
