Digital BW, The Print

Jerry, I forgot to comment on the length of time it takes to run the 
alignment procedure.

I'm accustomed to the procedure on my 3000 and didn't usually bother 
realigning for different papers/canvas. It didn't seem to be 
necesssary. Like you, I was amazed at how long it takes on the 1280. 
What concerns me is the apparent need to realign each time I change 
papers. This is going to be a pain and sure is likely to cut down on 
the number of papers I use--or even try.
