One thing to keep in mind, is that pretty much all printers have the ability to print great, with work, parts, money, and know how. When it comes to buying a cheap printer that works from the get go, I like something that is easily and fully upgradeable. Most users when they first get into this hobby are confused and have to spend months tinkering around but end up understanding the basics and the benifits of this over that. Having a printer that is modular will allow you to be able to play and learn easily.
