Probably not as good as a professional printer, but most ink jet
printers print photos good enough for the average snapshot collector.

Just go to a good electronics store such as Staples, CompUSA and look at 
the printers. Most stores have their printers on display and you can see 
how good the output looks. Depending on your needs, you may also need to 
be aware of printer ink replacement cost. If you don't print frequently, 
ink replacement cost isn't going to be a big factor though. All the 
major name brands of printers are fine for the typical person. Where 
differences is when you get into more advanced printing, such as for a 
newsletter, fine art photography, and so on. For high end digital photo 
printing, its hard to go wrong with Epson.
