Most suitable printer for a crafter?

[anniebanannie]

I am an avid crafter and I have a printer/scanner, Epson DX5000, which I bought 10 months ago but, unfortunately, it does not print card, vellum or acetate. Advice please on which printers will meet my requirements. This is my first ever forum which I am sure will be a great benefit as I am newly retired and (hopefully) will have time to enjoy it.

Hi Anniebanannie and (welcome)to the forum!
I use a printer all the time with my crafting as I design backing papers and have to print them out! Now I'm sure you will get lots of advice from loads of people so just take this as the first of many ideas!
I have a Cannon Pixma IP5200 it prints on paper. card, acetate & vellum. The inks are seperate as well so if you run out of cyan ink you just replace that one not the whole lot!
I hope you enjoy your time here..it's a friendly place.
