Set a max budget.
Compare specifications relative to your requirements,
example being "dpi", the higher the figure the better the color
reproduction of prints on photo quality paper etc.
Research the cost of replacement ink cartridges for a specific
brand/model etc. This is a continued source of income for
printer manufacturers and cartridges can be very expensive.
Check connectivity options. Most recent models will be USB2
but cheaper discontinued models may not be?
You have a digital camera, some printers have a card slot
to accommadate direct connection etc
