Digital BW, The Print

Now that the Epson 2200 seems to be readily available and given that 
a number of people on the list have used it for a while, I wonder if 
anyone could compare the results (B&W) to quad printing using one of 
the older Epson printers.  I use a 1200 with the MIS-VM inks and have 
been pleased with the output.  All things equal -- mainly my own 
capabilities -- does the 2200 really provide much more upside 
potential?  I rarely print larger than 8X10.  Is it better or just 
different??  

Thanks,

Steve
