Digital BW, The Print

Hi,
I am shooting 35mm and am hoping to also start medium format shortly.

The thing is, I only have an Epson 1660 - and no printer yet. Obviously, my present scanner is of little use beyond my web site for 35mm and I'm going to have to upgrade, prior to my next investments, hopefully a Mamiya TLR and an Epson 1160 or 1290 printer.

For financial reasons, I can't see any other option for a scanner that will do everything (a Nikon is way out of my price-range) - but how adequate have people found the 3200 for 35mm BW negs? What size can it print to with sharpness?

It's probably hobson's choice anyway, as I can't see any other machine being in my price range.

Just thought I'd ask, anyway - sorry it it's been discussed before.

thanks,
Richard
