Re: [Digital BW] HP new 8-ink printerprinter

2003-08-29 by Bill Schmidt

At first glance, some disadvanatges:

1.  Only goes to 8.5 x 11"
2.  Takes 4 ink cartridges - one is a "tricolor".  If ink usage is
similar to Epson 2200 you'l be throwing away a lot of cyan and magenta
ink when the light cyan and light magent run out.
