Trifecta winner

2002-03-07 by bggilliand2001

All,

This is my first post of what I'm sure will be many. I dedicated a 
new 1520 to BW piezography system to try it out. No CIS, as I have 
found none for the 1520. I've had my share of clogs, paper feed 
issues, banding, etc. with the Cone system. When the prints come out 
perfect, however, they are truly spectacular. Here's the thing; I'd 
like advise on the Trifecta Winner, the best combination of printer, 
CIS, and ink set for dedicated BW printing. My budget is $1500. I 
prefer cooler tones, and don't need any more than 13" width. I'm also 
up for any advise on the 1520, but my gut reaction, after dealer with 
the beast, is to sell it off and go with a 1280. I've already got the 
piezo s/w, and understand from posts here that the Cone s/w will work 
with other ink sets. Thanks in advance guys and gals.
