I use an Epson Stylus 1160 with Lyson small gamut ink sets, (Quad blacks are good too). I know several professionals that use the same combination, and the printer was not at all expensive. For the price of a top of the range Epson you can buy two 1160's and many do. One for Colour and one for Small Gamut or Quad Black inks.
