Any recommendations for printers?

Hi all
I need to get 5,000 leaflets printed, full colour, single sided and would welcome any suggestions as to Vancouver printers. I'm looking for the most cost effective printer I can find, in other words - cheap!
Any recommendations will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

I'm looking for 'recommendations' from people who have direct experience with a printer, not just a directory of printers but thanks for your helpful comment
Sometimes, I just can't resist trying to be a Smart-ass.
I threw out the printer that came with my first (used) computer,
because it was a Lexmark Z25-Z35, and the printer used two
cartridges of ink - one black, & one colour, and each cost
about $45.00 at Staples. The printer was only worth $79.95.
So it's cheaper to throw out the printer & buy a new one with
its new ink supply than reload those two $45 cartridges every
month or two.
The lady who runs the office here for these six high-rises
uses an HP printer, and she tells me that hers uses a cartridge
that has three colours (the three primary colours) which it
mixes as required for the various shades in an image. That
cartridge costs about $75 but she says it lasts about 6 months
even with fairly regular use. She showed me some photos that
she printed with it, and they looked very good. Better than
the ones I made on my Lexmark before I tossed it.
So maybe that's another way to go....
at 1925 west broadway. they have a special price of 19 cents a letter sized page but you have to order in multiple of 2. i recently made copies there and was pleased with the helpful service and the vibrant colours.
