Just to throw in a little something.  My 9600 arrived a few days ago and if
your 50-cent prints are from a 2200 using the new ultrachrome inks, you and
your clients will be very happy.  I printed a 24x30 B&W portrait last night
using photoblack and lustre paper.  While I am getting a little blocking in
a the blacks below 10% or so, the prints are stunning.  I have heard from
another 9600 owner that a good profile goes a long way toward opening up the
deep shadows and producing a smooth step wedge.


The when I get my printer profiled I will do a side by side comparison of
piezotones and the ultrachromes.

The color prints are simply amazing as well.

It is 98% of what I had been looking for in a multiuse printer...
