We have Epson 850N and 900N printers at different locations on our
network. The N indicates an Ethernet card. Reliable and high quality
output with the difference being the 900 is faster. Just keep in mind
you will be consuming a lot of ink from expensive cartridges. When
photo quality is not an issue (PowerPoint transparencies, color
announcements, and the like) we use a Tektronix 340. This cost
several thousand at the outset but has printed over 30,000 pages with
little maintenance. Much cheaper in the long run because the type of
ink used per page is far less.

Good luck,
Alan
