    Best printers on a budget??

    Hi every one. I am new here, my partner and myself have been takin pictures at local race meets for a couple of years now and sharing them on Facebook. We have had lots of people ask us how much for a print as the photos are quite good (even if I do say so myself lol).

    We have tried to print the pictures on our home computer and the quality is not great (quite grainy when you look closely) was wondering what sort of printer you guys would suggest i.e inkjet, thermal etc!

    Thanks in advance for your help ;-)

    Yes printing the originals! But look very grainy, not sure if it is just the dust in the air as the track was very dusty, the quality of the printer (but if you look closley in the light the ink seems flawless or if its the camera settings making the picture noisy.
