Re: [Digital BW] Epson 1200+Monochrome

2003-04-20 by Matt Haber

I started with a 720, and am now using a 1200 with VM inks using 
self-filled carts. I've had some fussy clogs, but I'm generally quite 
happy with it.

have been using my 1270 for printing Photoshop duotone files for a while, and I'm ready to get into a dedicated printer.
