Digital BW, The Print

I have both 1280 & 890. So far as I can tell they are exactly the same
except the width. They even share an instruction book. If you not
going to print over 8x10, AND you can find an 890, they are a real
deal. I paid $85 for mine (refurbished which is essentially new) at
the Epson on line store. I do think Epson is out of 890's though and
may not make any more since they just didn't sell until marked way
down. Too bad.
