I didn't have a good experience with the 1520. Poor paper feeding really detracts from the specified width. Lots of problems with banding as well, which translates into lots of expensive paper and ink wasted...not to mention time. I use the Cone driver and it slows to accomodate the paper feed issues. VERY slow with the Cone driver. Highly recommend the 1280 if you can swing it, but if not, you can get a CIS from weink.com. Good luck to you.
