Re: [Digital BW] Printer Advice for Printing Sketch Cards

2003-08-05 by mfaphoto@optonline.net

The Epson Stylus Photo 2200 has a maximum print size of 13X19, but it takes any size paper up to that and has an accessory to hold roll paper in the size of your sketch cards. It is the best printer that Epson or anyone makes because of it's ability to be totally controllable, it's use of pigment inks with a life of over 75 years, and it's true photo quality. Add to this, it's speed and it is the best printer for what you want to do. The downside is the cost. It costs $699, Oh, it also prints borderless on just about any paper. I own one of these and I am not sorry. Color is fantastic. 
     The problm with neutral black and white images is a nagging one. It can be cured with the installation of RIP software. Most places charge a steep price for this but you can get  one called Quadtone RIP free of charge from Roy Harrington, online. He will help you with the installation.
     The 2200 uses 7 inks also. That is very nice when only one runs out.
Cartridges are $8.90 each.
