Epson PM-400 prints multiple sizes up to 5x7. The print app is easy to use. Ink cartridge is an all in one and cost about $35 for 100 prints which is the average number of prints per cartridge. It prints on anything that will work in an ink jet. It's a great portable small printer and I have one for crops. At home I use an Epson Eco Tank. I've had it 4 years this Christmas and have only bought ink refills once. I print all my pictures at home. It is an all in one print/copy/scan. Photos are excellent quality and resolution. It doesn't print bigger than 8.5x11.

Canon Selphy is going to be the best bang for your buck, but limited in size of prints and media. Canon Pixma or Epson PM-400 will offer more options as a portable ink jet. A regular Canon Megatank or Epson Ecotank is going to be the most cost effective in the long run if you print at home. I have an Epson Ecotank, print at home and have only refilled ink in my printer once in four years. It prints beautifully and also scans and copies. I also have the Epson PM-400 that I use as a portable printer when I attend crops. The instant printers like instax or Zip are fun little printers. Good for one offs, but expensive and not quality high resolution prints.

Can't give any review of the Canon. I do have an Epson EcoTank. It prints great, never had connection issues. However, if it sits too long without use (30+days) the print heads can get dry and I had to go multiple rounds cleaning the heads. But, this printer was also in a room without AC and it gets hot here in the summer. I've only replaced ink once in four years and I print everything at home.

I've also noticed my canon g7020 prints better pictures then Epson ECOTANK I also noticed the canon G7020 sits better not printing for 1 week at a time vs the Epson I also noticed my canon has no expiration on the ink. But the Epson is like 2-3 years.

Ecotank is garbage for photo prints

I have an ecotank for printing documents. They are not well suited for making photographic prints

I have Epson eco tank, but it doesn’t print in “high quality “ as you describe. I’d suggest printing your things somewhere like FedEx, they have great prices for their quality

I love my epson ecotank printer. There’s lots of sticker makers that use it and you can find reviews on YouTube. Ink is cheaper too than buying cartridges. Comes in bottles.

I have an ecotank. Its slow and not the best quality print but you can print a lot on one bottle of ink and thats what i care about

Epson EcoTank (ET) printers are the way to go. The teacher will really, really, really appreciate the very inexpensive cost per page because the ink is so inexpensive.

I have an epson eco tank that I use for an entire line of prints that have quite dark colors. I really like it! That said, I have to do a little bit of tweaking pre-print so they don’t turn out *too* dark and lose their contrast. I usually raise the brightness by anywhere from 20-50% and they do just fine.

I've been using a EcoTank for about a year for 4x6 and 8x10s. A four color printer like that will be limited in what it can resolve from the original file, but it's fine if it's going to end up in an album or frame. It's been fun to experiment with different papers and settings, and they hold an absurd amount of ink.
