Digital BW, The Print

Kev,

the 1270 will do fine. Either MIS inks (UT) or the Piezotones will do fine too. If 
you choose dye based inks (lyson, or the hybrid blacks which are options 
available with the piezotones) do so knowing that you trade off longevity for 
dmax (and the use of glossy papers without bronzing with some inks).  
You will have a harder time deciding on a driver, and whether to use a CIS or 
not.... depends on your budget, operating system, and degree of experience, 
among others.
