Bill:
I'm using a 1270 with CIS and GEN4 pigs. My 2200 and IP5 comes tomorrow.
I have just printed a variety of color and GS images for comparison.
More as I get the new printer in place and working.

Subject: [Digital BW] Epson printer comparisons plus inks
 
I am looking for feedback from anyone who has used MIS Archival inks 
in a 1270/1280/7000  and now is using a 2200/7600.

For paper I use mostly EAM on the low end and Han Photo Rag 308 on 
the high end..

Though I do some color, I usually print from black and white scanned 
negatives. I print them out as warm or cool black and white or 
heavily toned using the MIS inks.

I am thinking that the new printers with the Epson inks may be the 
answer for what I want with a reasonable archival life.  When the 
printers get chipped, then I could use the MIS inks again if I didn't 
like the results.

What are your feelings about the quality/cost differences using these 
two combinations of inks and printers as they are currenty available?
