Per page cost of printing (ink) by manufacturer



Kodak have recently launched their "ThInk" campaign claiming much lower per page costs on home printers.

The following PCWorld link shows that their advantage is more marginal than claimed. (PCWorld did their own tests). I assume these are 4x6" prints, but I'm not completely sure.

Epson are not in this chart, unfortunately.

The special 4x6" printers are significantly more expensive per image:
(one Epson, one HP)

"Longevity" of the prints is not presented either, but most claim long life if not in direct/harsh lighting.
