Low cost printer for black only & CD?

[steve_singleton3]

As a way of sharing family history, I'm interested in a digital

printer that will allow BO prints of old photographs as well as

printing some images with titles on CD sound recordings. The r200

sounds like the least-cost option if it would work in BO, but

longevity is a concern. Presumably the r800 would take more archival

MIS Ebony pigment ink--except that it isn't yet available in that

cartridge. The other approach would seem to be splitting the

functions--dedicated CD printing with a Lightscribe drive and buying

an inexpensive BO printer like the C86 with MIS inks. Does anyone

have advice/experience with BO printing on paper and plastic? Any

advice appreciated.
