Given the minimum droplet sizes of the Epson wide formats are 3.5 
picoliter, I can understand there is still a quality gain in using more 
black ink dilutions like the 6 or 7 ink varities more often discussed 
here. With smaller droplets up to 1.5 picoliter in desktop models, is 
there an equivalent reduction possible on the number of diluted inks 
used? For example 1.5/3.5 x 7 = 3 inks for a 1.5 droplet?  Is the image 
quality more or less equal along that range or is it not that simple? 
Maximum print size to compare A2-A3.
