[newbie] epson 1160 or 1200

2002-07-10 by Meme

Hi ive been reading articles on quadtones with great interest, the most
confusing aspect of quadtones I feel is the different manufacturers
providing the inks and also the 4-color 6-color difference.

Basically I am trying to keep the cost as low as possible, so Piezo is
prolly out of the question, MIS, with its workflows and new FS and neutral
tones sounds better for me (and my wallet).

So now it comes down to the printer, here in Australia 1160 are easy to get
compared with 1200, however if hextone offers far superior quality then I
don't mind spending a bit of time finding a 1200.

so what are ppl's feelings towards the 1160 vs. 1200 (possibly a flame war,
im a newcomer so wouldn't know - yet)
