I also have an Epson R800, just as wase4711's wife. The R800 is a dedicated photoprinter. Together with Canon i950 and the HP 7960 it is the best A4 photo printer out there. Which one to choose depends upon personal preferences. One of the reasons for me to choose Epson is that it produces perfect photo prints that are guaranteed to last around 80 years (or more, depending upon how you store the prints of course).
Theese printers are not for intended for general purpose use.
You'll hardly find a printer that is best at everything, or even good at everything. The closest one to be good at everything are the Phasers from Xerox (unless you don't count money at least).
Normal home printing? I also have a HP LaserJet 1300 for everything but photographics. I still don't cover every neeed for prints here. If somebody want to print an Excel sheet including a color diagram or chart I have nothing to offer.
One of the cheaper Epson ink jet printers maybe? First check if there are third party ink cartridges available. If not the ink will cost way more than the printer over time.
